Full review to come soon but suffice it to say, I really really REALLY loved this book. Also, the quality of the writing and editing was top notch. And oh yeah, Sean is swoonworthy! ;D

So when I heard that this book featured two soap opera stars, I couldn't resist (it was also on sale*, so if the theme...

When she finds out sh...
