*Happy sigh* No, really. I am seriously doing the happy sigh thing over this book. It was a sweet, quick and engaging read that pulled practically every emotion known to man out of me while reading it, even a few sniffles which doesn't happen all often. And then there was the fact that I actually HAD to talk myself into putting it down because I had things that I had to do and putting them off was not an option. 
 Proposing to Preston is a well written and engaging second chance at love story that is told in two parts: When Preston and Elise first meet then when they collide once more after being separated for two years and I must admit that I liked that it was done in this way rather than flashbacks peppered throughout the book, not that there aren't a few, but this way I was able to focus better and found that I really liked both of them a lot. While raised in very different worlds, they both had drive and ambition and an inherent kindness that called to each other. Knowing this had me rooting for them to end up together. But as much as I liked them, I did get frustrated with them at various points, okay I got pissed off with them, but only because of the situations they found themselves in and their handling of them. 
 But what I enjoyed the most was how the story unfolded. Knowing that they are separated by a choice made by Elise had me turning the pages in anticipation to see just how it all went down and when the first hint finally came to light I couldn't help but cringe. And when it came to pass...let's just say I almost tossed my e-reader into the freezer. Almost. As I said already, the writing was engaging and the story flowed well and I didn't feel lost in anyway since I didn't read the first book in the series, so this one can definitely be read as a standalone, but will be adding it to my TBR list because I really liked the Winslow family members. 
 The Bottom Line: Fun, sweet read that's perfect for summer!
