Nemesis Mine. This is a short yet heavier-than-many standard Maggie Dallen “Hallmarkie” high school romance. There's still some laughter, but particularly in its final pages it really starts landing some haymakers that are not really typical of Dallen at all. Still, when you need something to dive into a rich, well developed “fake” world to escape the “real” one with all of its issues right now... this is a solid distraction for a couple of hours or so. Very much recommended.
Maggie Dallen is one of my go-to authors when I'm in dire need of some warm fuzzies, and this short and sweet story was exactly the feel-good read I needed.
I found it easy to root for both Kate and Miller, and I loved that there's much more to them than the stereotypes they are perceived as.
One of my favorite quotes:
“I don't know what we are or what we could be,” I said simply, shoving my hands in the pockets of my ridiculous suit to keep from reaching out for her. “But I'd like to find out.”
