** spoiler alert ** 
 I loved the first half of the book, but the second half was okay. 
 In this story, Abby (aka Pigeon) tries to keep as far away from Travis Maddox as she possibly can. He is everything that she left Kansas; he gambles, he fights, and he has women practically throwing themselves at him. However, she becomes friends with him, once she realizes that there is another side to him. 
 However, one night at one of Travis's fights, Abby makes a bet with him that if he gets punched at all by his opponent, then he must not have sex for a month. If she loses, than she has to live in his apartment for a month. She loses, and is forced to live with him. 
 Over the course of the month, they both try to hide their feelings from each other, and try to hide their pasts; Abby's being her gambling father, who blames his lose of luck on Abby, because when she turned thirteen, he lost practically every single bet. Travis's is that his mother died when he was three years old, and that he has not been able to truly love anyone else ever since then. 
 In the middle of the book, they finally come to terms with their feelings, and they start a realtionship with each other. 
 In the second half of the book, the problems set in. Mick, Abby's father comes to the college with debt that he makes Abby pay off. While there, Abby and Travis break up because Travis was offered a job to fight for extremly high prices, but under a very shading boss. They then spend almost the remander of the book broken up. However, they do eventually get back together after the realize they can't be apart from each other any longer. 
 The ending. Now, while it was happy, it was by no means realistic. Getting married while you are still in college, at only nineteen years old, after only knowing each other for a couple months, is NOT a smart idea. But I digress. I still really liked the book.
