This turned out to be much more than I expected. When I picked up this book, I thought I was going to read a light, fun story and, although it did give me some of that, it also had some deeper topics to explore. These characters were carrying around burdens and were facing some difficult decisions about life. I was immediately pulled into their story and rooted for them from the very beginning. 
 Avery and her family have been abandoned by their mother and, although her father tries very hard, it's still a difficult situation. In order to deal with the heart break of being left behind, Avery begins to take control of everything. She has an obsessive need to dominate and to have order in every aspect of her life. This makes it difficult for her to build and maintain relationships. Zac is her complete opposite. Unlike many broody, broken book heroes, he is light and fun and believes the world is full of possibilities. Now, this doesn't mean he doesn't have his own issues because he does - he's hyper, doesn't sleep well, is easily distracted, and his dreams for his future do not match the ones his parents have for him. But his ability to live life with a smile fools those around him. And here is the true brilliance of this book. These two people, so far on each end of the spectrum, couldn't be more perfect for each other. They are exactly what the other needs. And, as we watch their journey, we're reminded that none of us has all the answers, that we all need to look at our lives from a fresh perspective, and that, sometimes, clarity comes from the least expected places. 
 This is a quick read that brings with it some great characters, some humor and just the right amount of romance. It's a feel-good book that I think you'll enjoy.
