3.5 - 4 stars
This story is told in third person and completely from Rachel’s point of view. I’m not always a fan of singular point of view, however, it worked extremely well for this story. I found myself able to relate to Rachel’s character from the get-go so it was no hardship to be in her head throughout.
I may, or may not, be familiar with online dating and the trials that can and often do go hand in hand with hooking up with a virtual stranger. A couple of the situations were a little scary and one down right funny. Okay scratch that, it was scary-funny.
Rachel’s best friend is a gay man and another very likable character. Haley, her other friend, the third of the trio sharing a house, was the least fleshed out of all three. I didn’t care for her one bit, and couldn’t have cared less if she’d dropped off the page.
Recently divorced, Rachel is trying to find her footing and finally act on her desires to be with a woman. With her ex nowhere in sight, she has to rely on her less than stellar parents to look after her two children.
I had an inkling who Rachel would end up dating but it didn’t detract from my enjoyment of this story. I urge readers to give this one a try, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised.

I really enjoyed this book as a quick read. The characters, storyline was engaging and really funny. It's well written and had me gripped from the very first page.

Rachel has come out of an abusive relationship with the father of her two children who are now well and truly loved by her two housemates and best friends. They are one big happy family, with the exception of her mother who when she is described to us the readers is made out to be a complete whack job and treats Rachel very poorly and has very high expectations for both her children.
But those same best friends are sick and tired of Rachel not having a relationship of her own. So they encourage her to join a dating website. Reluctantly she joins with the anticipation of finally meeting and forming a relationship with a woman which is a new experience for her. During the process we hear some funny stories, some scary stories and even a couple of heartwarming stories/
I really enjoyed this book. It was a really easy read. It was written from the 3rd person perspective but is singular character focused. The story is seen through the the eyes of Rachel. I don’t mind this form of storytelling but it is very hard to get it right so the story flows well. It makes it very hard to flesh out other characters unless they have major roles to play in the main characters life. I’m sure there is more to tell about the other character in Rachel’s life.
I felt through a lot of the book that it would fit both a young adult and an adult audience. The writing style was easy to follow and the story was written in a way that I’m sure young adults would also be able to sit through.
All in all this book is a cute romance story that you could probably work through in a day if you set your mind to it and come out the other side feeling lighter. Well done Adan on writing a lovely novel, 4 stars.

LOVE that she didn't end up with her friend. I usually like when it goes that way, but this was great that is didn't. Very nice!

I literally devoured this book. I don't normally read romance, and this book made me question that decision. It really drew me in and kept me guessing, the characters were people I felt drawn to, and I felt a great since of "beginning" at the end, which was a nice way to wrap it up. A quick, entertaining read :)
