I am very glad that I stumbled upon this book by chance. So, so good!! Seriously, I don't know why I never heard of this book before now. I absolutely loved She's the Man (the movie) and Babe in Boyland, which are both a bit similar to this story. There isn't any comedy in this book but I loved the characters and story just the same. I just wanted to sit all day and read. Kissing scenes are very good. The romance develops so sweetly. I will be reading anything else this author writes. 
 On a side note, I would love to know what adult books this author writes. Anyone know?
