3.5 Stars 
 I've conditioned myself not to expect much from self pubs, but this one was pleasantly surprising. Though it needed editing in some areas, it wasn't bad. And I loved the characters too much to care about a few typos, which is saying a lot considering how picky I can be at times. One thing I have to say about this author: she gives good banter. The banter is what kept me reading, the amazing dialogue kept the story flowing and kept me engaged and turning pages. 
 The reason I didn't give this a full four or even five stars? The ending. I thought Bell did an amazing job characterizing Hadley and what she planned to do after college, and even her accounts of what happened when she traveled to Syria for work were descriptive and raw. But when she got home, I felt like the resolution with Jack was just too easy. I mean, I probably would've complained if she'd have drawn it out, but I did feel like it was a little too simple for them to just dive right back into everything after what she'd been through. I don't know, maybe I was tired last night and I need to re-read the end, but aside from that, there wasn't much else about this one that I didn't like. 
 If you're a new adult fan who doesn't mind a few typos and a happy ending, you'll enjoy this one. Jack's worth a read. ;)
