First and foremost - Kaitlyn Parker is awesome. I loved her. She is cluelessly quirky, unrepentantly smart and can be pretty sassy. I loved reading her reasoning and how crazy intelligent she was, but then how hilarious and sometimes just how girlish she was. I was endlessly entertained! 
 "And by Bunsen burner I meant, literally, my Bunsen burner. Not the figurative Bunsen burner in my pants." 
 "Is a chameleon a coward because it can change its color? No. It's evolved and awesome. I like to think of myself in a similar fashion. There is nothing wrong with having a strong sense of self-preservation." 
 I loved the tidbits of wisdom she told us about from her mother - who sounds like a somewhat formal but awesome lady. 
 "No one, she said, could tell me what to think of my body. If I let another person's opinion matter I was giving him or her control over me, and I had complete control over my own self-image." 
 "I'd learned from my mother that when someone gives you a subjective compliment--meaning one that can't be disproven and is based on opinion--but that you find to be completely false, rather than argue, it's much better to just say thank you, or I appreciate that and strive to be that compliment. Fools fight compliments, she'd said, and sometimes other people see you better than you can see yourself." 
 Martin is very rough around the edges. He is quite dominating and I'm not really a fan of that type of guy. I see some potential, but will have to think on this! There were quite a few things that did actually bother me about this book - mostly centered around him. He doesn't push her but he doesn't take things slow either. (view spoiler)[I mean she goes from never having gotten to second base to covering all the bases in a few days. (hide spoiler)]. And he also doesn't exactly try to 'woo' her ( yes, I am somewhat lame I already know). the focus was a little too much on the physical, not that there is anything wrong with that. At all. Because.. steamy. But you know.. romance?
