Insta-love! Insta-love! :D
I've been waiting for this book ever since reading "Chasing the Sun" - I fell in love with Naomi in book #1, and I was curious to see what kind of hero would prove worthy for this amazing ;) heroine. And while I'm usually not a particularly big fan of insta-love, I'm happy with the way this story played out.
While Hunter may come across as a bit stuffy at first - and yes, "buttish" :D - he's still a fellow word nerd, so I'll cut him some slack. And both Naomi and Hunter have plenty to figure out for themselves, even without adding the potential of romance to the mix, so their initial reluctance to see where this mutual attraction may lead is understandable. But they have a team of wingmen (wing-siblings?) rooting for them, which is equally awesome, awkward, and slightly terrifying. :D

Speaking of the siblings, I love the twin-vibes Naomi has with Theo. And I am SO happy that Theo, one of my favorite characters in book #1, is also a part of this wild and swoony and slightly crazy and all-around - ahem - amazing trip!
Looking very much forward to the next (sadly final?) book in the series!
