by: Shannon Guyman

 After being dumped, in the middle of the Salt Lake Airport, by the guy of her dreams Sophie Reid is all but happy.  But after a late night discussion with her best friend Jacie she realizes how much Blake isn't the man of her dreams, once she realizes how much she wants revenge she becomes determined to be as happy as ever and make him sick with regret.  She decides to throw herself back into the daring game of dating.  But even after deciding to be happy she still is facing major problems such as, her all but nice relatives.  Her father split up with her mother when she was eleven creating an immense hate of her new step mother Julie, even though Julie never did anything to hurt Sophie, unlike the rest of her aunts uncles and cousins, they tormented her and pulled her and her mom down as much as they could they attacked her clothes, her job, ( working as a hair stylist at her moms salon) and the fact that her mom raised her all by herself.  One Sunday after being ridiculed about being dumped and not having anyone who liked her or thought she was beautiful she got the courage up and simply said she was leaving thats when she met Sam.  Sam is Julie's nephew and Julie mentioned to Sophie earlier that day that she wanted Sophie to meet Sam.   Sophie was dreading this until she actually meets Sam, as she leaves her grandmothers home her step mom stops her and introduces her to Sam, a drop dead gorgeous and kind guy.  She then has a new dilemma to face ever since she decided to get back to dating her best friend Jacie wanted her to go out with her good friend Paul, a kind new lawyer, she has to decide whether she wants Sam a super kind cute guy whom she thinks she is starting to love but has a psychotic ex- girlfriend who just wont let go of him, or Paul, a nice and cute guy who Sophie just likes as a friend.  Which guy do you think that Sophie is best for and which guy is really going to be happiest with? 
               I really enjoyed this book because its light and happy.  I enjoy books like this because they don't stress me out. Since I get really into books when I read them I enjoy light and happy.  Sohpie is a lot like me she is determined to be happy but life still keeps throwing challenges at her.  
                "You can come to me for anything, and you know I'll do whatever I can to help you." This is said by Sophie's step dad after she got attacked by Tess Sam's ex-girlfreind, i like this because it shows the immense difference between Sophie's dad and her sep dad, proving that not all step-parents are cruel and mean.
              I would recommend this book to anyone, ok not most guys are going to enjoy this since it's a romance but still it's a great book and i really enjoyed it!!
