Ugh, I don't know how this book ended up on my holds list and it was pretty disappointing. I was hoping for a smart, feminist main character, but instead got a damaged girl who just needed the love of a big strong guy to put her on the straight and narrow.

So I reread this book because one day I had a vague remembrance about a book I read where a girl fell in love with a police officer that arrested her. I couldn't remember the name of the book and I remembered only vaguely enjoying the story, but for whatever reason I had an urge to reread it. As you do.

During my re-read I enjoyed this book a lot more than I remembered I did. I read it in the space of 24 hours. It is not anything spectacular. It has some decent characters in with decent character development and everyone was certainly likable. I think I basically really enjoyed the romance. I am not a huge fan of insta-love, as this books romance felt like. I mean after a couple of weeks they're in love? I don't think so. But sometimes you need to read that cheese. And that's what this book is. It's cheesy. It's over the top. With all this strange drama and unnecessary drama that keeps John and Meg. But that's what I fancied reading. I enjoy reading drama and romance a predictable book that leaves me feeling all warm and fuzzy inside when I finished. And that is what I got.

I'm glad I reread this. It got a four star rating simply because it left me with a smile on my face when I finished and that's what I like when finish reading something. I like it to leave feeling something at the end. I tend to prefer happy endings, but really as long it leaves me feeling something then I feel it's done what I wanted. Unless I'm feeling boredom at the end, then it's failed epically in its intentions. But this one didn't, thank God.

I loved this! It was funny, romantic, and a little sexy ;) I love Meg's character and I instantly fell in love with John. Great characters + wonderful plot = a new favourite of mine that I'll definitely read again

High school senior Meg revels in being a rebel; cutting class whenever possible and hanging out anywhere she's not supposed to be. Like on a railroad-tracks-covered bridge that's off-limits to trespassers. When she and her friends are busted for trespassing and underage drinking, she's sentenced to spend her spring break riding along with a rookie police officer on his nightshift patrol. To make things worse the cop, John After, is only two years older than Meg, and is sure that he knows all he needs to about her. John has nothing but contempt for her childish rebellion, but that's fine, because the feelings mutual - his straight-laced, by-the-book attitude is everything that Meg hates. But they're about to discover that they have a lot more in common than either one of them could have dreamed and, as they're forced to spend time together, sparks fly and a hot attraction between them becomes undeniable…
