Kelly’s Review<\/p>\n

I ran across this book when looking for a fun, sweet and quick-ish read. Then instead of reading it, I listened to it. I am not normally an audiobook kinda girl but once I started listening, I was HOOKED! The use of two narrators, one male and one female, was the key!<\/p>\n

The accidental email that started this whole thing was just an accident, remembering the accidental email the following Valentine\u2019s Day made me giggle, then the fact that they started competing to be the first to wish the other happy Valentine\u2019s Day really had me LOL\u2019ing! Obviously, you know they are going to meet but all their rules surrounding the \u201canonymous\u201d emails that allow our two main characters to actually get to know each other and become friends that lead up to them actually meeting, is where its all at.<\/p>\n

This is the perfect, sweet, funny and just all-around awesome read!<\/p>\n
