Whitley Johnston is more than excited to go to her dad's for the summer break! She thinks that it's better to stay away from her mom for a while. 18 year old Whitley was extremely excited to see her dad once again in over a year. She has wanted to stay at her dad's place since the divorce, but her dad refused. While some conversation in the car Whitley's dad drops huge news to her that will change the way that she lives her life forever...He is engaged! Shocked, with all of these mixed emotions she doesn't know how to express herself. So she yells at her dad and his fiancee. Whitley quickley learns that her dad's fiancee has two teens. A 13 year old girl named Bailey, and an 18 year old boy named Nathan. Whitley takes a close look at that son of the fiancee. She knows that she's seen him before, but she can't remember where.. Then..it hits her! She's seen this guy in her high school, in the halls and at the graduation party he held! Her dad wants them to bond but she doesn't. when things go wrong with Nathan, Whitley decides that they should just make up and be friends...(well, at least for a while...)Then things go right as Nathan and Whitley planned and Whitley's father is furious! He tries to send her home, but she refuses.Whitley tells Nathan her problems with her dad and he gives her his condolences, but does nothing! What kind of boyfriend is that?!?! (Oh yeah, i forgot, they became girlfriend /boyfriend).......No, I'm just kidding..... About the first thing.... He tells her that her and her dad should have a quiet talk together alone... They do and make up(with the dad i mean.. She has no problems with Nathan), she isn't sent home early and all is well, with her dad. Nathan and her are going to spend time with each other during collage and after. And so as always,the moment we have been waiting for... They lived happily ever after. The End.

I really like the author's writing style. It's fresh and young, and sometimes I'm just sitting there reading trying not to burst out loud laughing. So that's always good. I wasn't a huge fan of the storyline - kind of weird to be in love with your actual stepbrother...that would be totally awkward. But it was funny and a good book.
I expected so much more from a Keplinger book, SPOILERRRRRRRRRRRR and the highlight of the whole book was when Wesley and Bianca appeared. I wished there were more scenes when they appeared like that because they're honestly the cutest thing. I found Whit really annoying most of the time, and Nate was really cute and patient, but the whole stepbrother-sister concept is only cute if the parents DONT end up together. Otherwise, it's pretty strange to have a relationship with your step sibling.
I could not put this book down!
This book is so well-written! it has a good point of view of how a teen like Whitley would feel, at that age. The author used very descripted nouns and verbs. overall.. i LOVE this book!!!! It's SO GOOD!!!!
good book!!! XD
This book was fantastic, just like Kody Keplinger's other books, The Duff and Shut Out! Kody Keplinger has become one of my favorite authors. Since she's still pretty young herself (she's about college age), she knows how to write from a teenage girl's point of view, as compared to a 40 year old woman trying to write like a teenager. Her characters and their family and friends are just so relatable and real. There is plenty of swearing and sexual stuff in this book, so I wouldn't recommend this for anyone younger than high school age, but again, that stuff happens in high school (and younger) all the time, so it just makes this book more real. Even though Whitley's morals start out pretty low at the beginning, she learns the error of her ways, so there's a good life lesson in here. I also love how all of Kody Keplinger's books have a deeper meaning in them, and the main character learns her lesson by the end. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book (and The Duff and Shut Out) to older teenage girls who are looking for something fun yet meaningful to read. Enjoy!
