Love the short story
I really like the dynamic relationship between Simone and Dale. I appreciate the story being told from the male protagonist it was really refreshing. I just wish it was a little bit longer. Yes I know it's a short story but I felt there was more tales to this story.

This was amazing !
And too short! I wanted to sink into this romance! So beautifully written! I felt everything!
Dale was so sprung! Omj! I loved his cute awkwardness and how he just adored Simone! And as for Simone! She was so cool! Wow!
Haven’t read a book this fluffy and romantic in a while!
Definitely a must read!

You're basically getting the story of a couple meeting, getting to know each other and sealing the deal. It was well told, but it wrapped up too abruptly. It made me interested in reading a full novel from this author. BTW, I appreciate whenever they use cover models that looks just as described in the book.

Good read but too short
It would have been nice to have a bit more details as to where their relationship was going, challenges etc. However, what we had was a fun, well developed beginning of a relationship. Shame it felt like half a book though.

Slow and steady
Dale is new in town, sees Simone on the way to work. He makes up his mind to introduce himself and win her over. Only thing is he has anxiety issues but he's not going to let that stop on his quest to win over Simone.

I want more!
I love this book! I keep expecting some drama but there was none, just a really cute romance. Dale was adorable and Simone was delightful. I downloaded a sample then immediately bought the book, glad I did. Great job Ms. Nicholas.

So cute
This was a fast read with Great characters in a cute story. Lots of humor. You could "feel" the heat and the playfulness between the tough New Yorker(only on the outside) and the nerdy, anxious Floridian. Cute story. Would definitely read this author again.

Didn't want the story to end
This is a story of cat and mouse between Simone and Dale. I really appreciated how sometimes we experienced Dale chasing Simone and then Simone chasing Dale. The happy ending was definitely worth the wait.
