The Tables EDGE (THE TABLES EDGE SERIES Book 1)


It has made her life difficult and she has learned to trust no one except for her family. Despite being downtrodden and poor Rose is a remarkably likable character. She is honest, prideful and will not take advantage of those around her no matter how they have treated her in the past. When Declan shows up, a Blueblood from the Magic dimension, Rose is sure he will be like all the others that have tried to steal her away.

They come to an arrangement of sorts and Declan is cleaver and finds a way to stay with Rose while he tries to win her affection. A doubloon a day. More than generous--some families would put him up for a week for a single coin. He needs to find and destroy a doomsday machine his uncle is using in hopes of stealing magic. This was packed with the humor and action you expect from an Ilona Andrews novel. It took awhile for the love interest to grow on me but in the end he was everything a hero should be.

This was a beautiful blend of action and romance.

I loved this book and I remembered so little of it that it was like I was reading it for the first time. This book was awesome. I wanted more of it. Usually I'm anxious to see how a story ends but this time I just wanted it to keep goi Re-read with the awesome gang in IAA group.

Usually I'm anxious to see how a story ends but this time I just wanted it to keep going. I actually had happy tears in the end!!! Where should I begin? This book pushed all my buttons. The story, the characters, the world-building, everything was spectacular! Let's start by the protagonists. Rose is such a relatable heroine. She is easy to like and gives the "girl-next-door" vibe. Does she have remarkable characteristics? Well yes, but she isn't one of a kind. She has a strong flash the strongest in the Edge but this doesn't help when she needs to put food to the table for herself and for her two young brothers.

She is a strong heroine but unlike most of UF and PNR heroines she is responsible because she has more than herself to think about. I liked her from prologue to epilogue. Declan is mysterious, sexy, full of surprises. Until the last page he keeps Rose on her toes. I really would have loved to have his POV but sadly it wasn't there, although the book was written from multiple POVs. I liked the fact that he wasn't spoiled rotten despite his family's status and his positiion. He was loyal and fierce and HOT. The whole deal between them was kind of fairytalish.

He was the noble knight, she was the Cinderella though she was no damsel-in-distress by any account , there were challenges to prove his determination to have her and The romance side of this book was just great and fullfilling without being sticky sweet. Well, I loved them ALL. The boys, Jack and George, were so cute and adorable and I want to adopt them , the grandmother was exactly how she should be protective and loving , William Even the "bad" people were well-written.

Seriously there wasn't anyone that I thought shouldn't be there. The story and world building The story was fast and full of action. What I love about I. Was it the first time we have seen a world built in different dimensions? Nope, but Andrews has added her magic and the world is original enough that you just want to know more. Also thankfully the "rules" of how it works were actually more easily understood than it was in Kate Daniels. So all in all if the book had any faults I just can't remember them and this is enough for me so I'm giving it a 5 wholeheartedly and already moving it to my favs self.

Rose and her two little brothers, George and Jack, ages 10 and 8, live in the Edge, a sort of halfway place between our world which they call the Broken, since magic doesn't work there and a parallel world called the Weird, where magical powers reign. In the Edge, magic works, but not as well as in the Weird. Most people can't pass through from one world to the other, or even sense that the other world e f you like Ilona Andrews' brand of romance-driven urban fantasy, grab this one! Most people can't pass through from one world to the other, or even sense that the other world exists, but there are exceptions, like Rose and her brothers.

And Declan, the mysterious guy from the Weird who appears on Rose's doorstep, with magical powers even she can't match, and barges into their lives. Rose doesn't trust Declan an inch And just maybe she'll be glad he's there, as deadly magical hounds begin appearing in the Edge and killing people. I read this urban fantasy for the second time last night, when I really should have been reading other books, but it totally sucked me in and I couldn't help it! Not just the power of Declan who is awesome , but there's William the shapeshifter, and George a necromancer , and Jack another shapeshifter , and Mamere, their French-speaking grandmother And how did I miss even giving it a star rating the first time I read it?

But I liked it even better the second time. Full review to come really! I am going to get to it, sooner or later. View all 4 comments.

And BTW, guys in real life look terrible with that haircut.

I stayed up way too late to I love this author, and for me this was a 4 star UF and a 5 star romance. I stayed up way too late to finish it.

Katy Lohman On the Edge is a little more surreal than the magic/Kate series, .. this one of my funnest rereads of a book (The other being Burn For Me)I have. www.farmersmarketmusic.com: Table Edge Guard & Corner Bumpers for Baby Proofing - Easy to access to music, movies, TV shows, original audio series, and Kindle books. . 1-Piece Baby Nail File with Case Czech Glass - Best for Gentle & Safe Nail Care for .. to much trouble, I just unrolled it and kept it straight with a couple of books.

What I particularly liked about this is that there are two kid characters I don't want to strangle for being precocious and precious, and she doesn't use them easily as a plot device, which I was dreading. Looking forward to more! View all 6 comments. I liked the distinctive voice I saw in that story, one that has stayed true in the subsequent stories that I have read by this team. With On the Edge, they have continued that excellence, providing me with a novel that is multi-faceted, genre-wise and story-wise.

Although I grew up in the Midwest, my roots are Southern, and I do appreciate books set in the South that show the real ways of Southerners. In this case, I saw something very real and almost familiar in Rose, her brothers, grandmother, and friends and neighbors. I smiled when Rose threw the boys in the car and took them to Walmart. Real people do shop there. How many times do you read a book where the characters go to Walmart to buy not the designer shoes, but the ones that look close enough to pass muster?

How about a heroine who buys ground beef and adds rice and bread crumbs to stretch it? Yup, that's real alright. How about those moments when you have to stretch your paycheck and hope you have enough money left over the week to buy gas so you can get to work? I've definitely been there. And the love and ties of family, having to work hard all day and get home, take care of your family, go to bed, and get up and do it again. I think a lot of readers can identify with that.

On the Edge

So what if Rose is magical, along with everyone in her family? That's a little more on the fantasy part of the scale. But this combination is why urban fantasy is so irresistible to me. The real and the surreal nicely entwined. The ideas in this story strike me as very unique and different.

I liked it a lot, even if some elements was pretty odd, like a reanimated grandfather who likes to eat stray dogs' brains. Or the fact that a lot folks in the Edge community can curse people, or send flashes of powerful energy out of their bodies. And then there is the shapeshifting younger brother of Rose, Jack.

The other young brother is a powerful necromancer hence the zombie granddad. And things get even more interesting when Declan shows up.

Rose's powerful flash abilities have made her an asset to Blueblood families who want to integrate her genes into their family lines, one way or the other. She has become wary of men for that reason, since most of her suitors didn't ask nicely. So when too good to be true Declan shows up to claim her and take her back to the Weird, the magical lands that are adjacent to the Edge, she definitely doesn't eagerly go off with him. She makes an oath with the handsome warrior that he can have her if he succeeds in her three challenges.

However, they have big problems on their hands, as there are horrible, magical hounds that are devouring Edgers for their magic. And they really want to get their hands on Rose and her family. She was a heroine that you could hang with, and that you'd be slightly in awe of, because she knows how to take care of business. She's the type that you tell to do something, and she takes about five minutes or more, and she's back and ready to get the job done. Not the heroine who is infallible and annoyingly perfect. Nope, she's the heroine that you love because she tries so hard, and she has the determination to do what is necessary.

I loved Rose's commitment to her brothers, how she raised them from a young age after her mother lost her mind and her father ran off treasure-hunting. Jack and Georgie her brothers are adorable and genuine little boys, despite their very unusual abilities. They were sweeties and reminded me of the poem about what boys are made of you know, snails and puppy dog tails. You could see why Rose loves them, even though being a single mom to her brothers is far from easy. Declan was a great match for Rose. He was just as determined and capable. He might be a rich princelike guy, but he was down to earth enough that this didn't bother me.

And I do like tough, warrior heroes, I won't lie. He took to the kids very quickly, and he treated them like they were his own. He even makes pancakes for them. I liked how he was as much a thinker as a doer, a problem-solver not afraid to get his hands dirty. He was a guy who made a commitment and stood by his word, no matter what. Declan was definitely a knight in shining armor, and I could see why Rose fell in love with him.

William was also adorable. I felt for him, and I will probably end up reading Bayou Moon soon to get more of him. I liked his wildness but also his goodness and how sweet he was with the kids I am a sucker for that. On the Edge has its dark, gruesome elements, but I'm okay with that. I like some dark in my fantasy. I loved the juxtaposition of the everyday with the fantastic and surreal. The Andrews have a great way of writing descriptively and setting the scene without overdoing things and info-dumping.

I like that the narrative is spare in some places, and the character sketches give you enough to get an idea of the folks in the story, but you can still learn more as you read.

This world is called the Weird and it is your typical "magical" world. So I should actually read my previous reviews before I cross-post. Then all my friends started reading it and decided I'd take the jump too. Okay you're hopeless, I give up. Rose is just barely getting by, while making the best of the situation for her little brothers, until a powerful nobleman comes to her door named Declan. And did I mention he was arrogant?

There are times you have to figure things out as you go, which is what I prefer, to be honest. Although I am sure this book wouldn't work for everyone, I had a ball reading it. I liked everything about it. The romance was great, but the fantasy elements were equally important. I'd recommend this to a reader who likes fantasy but wants to try romance, and a reader on the other side of that equation. It happens like that.

You read enough works from a favorite author and you develop an expectation, a knowledge that once you delve into the pages of their books, nothing could possibly go wrong. It had been a while since I read a work by the Gordons and I had forgotten about the pure, natural immersion in the world of magic they allow their readers. Not once were you lectured on the world, or lost in a labyrinth of confusion of how this magical world works.

You read a page and you just find yourself a part of the story, the world is part of your life, and the characters, family Nothing to it, right? Well if this is so easy, why don't all authors do it??? Why do we spend time reading tons of volumes looking for that same ease and make excuses for works which show a fraction of the magic we take as a given in IA's writing???

Because they craft their art so seemingly effortlessly, that we forget to stand still for a bit and acknowledge their mastery of storytelling!!! There are many reviews which give a better view of the contents of this book and I don't want to get into it here. After all, there are many more books of theirs that I can be more specific with. At this moment I just want to stop, take deep breaths, and basque in the talent that are Ilona Andrews! And thank them, for giving us books to which we can return when we are in need of feeling like we are safely back home!

For some that might be something they can find easily, but for me, this elusive feeling is the Holy Grail, and I cherish it beyond measure Thanks again for the cozy buddy read with the IAA group and I wish all could find their way to the magical works of this author! View all 11 comments. Dear God, please protect me from the wrath of the Ilona Andrews fans who might read this review. I'm sure I just read it wrong. Hey, I'm a huge fan! But this book did not work for me. I wanted to love it. I just could not connect with Rose or Declan. I disliked them both. I get the motivation for why Rose acted like she did toward him, but that didn't make it any easier to read.

It takes "slow burn" romance to another level entirely. Like glacial melt rom Dear God, please protect me from the wrath of the Ilona Andrews fans who might read this review. Like glacial melt romance. I did really like Georgie and Jack. I liked the magic, but you know, I really didn't like the Edge. Everyone seemed mean and gossipy and hateful. The Weird sounded interesting, but even those people seemed stuck up and pompous. I did not care for this. I love Ilona Andrews and will try the next one out in this series to see if it vibes with me better.

I hope it does. Buddy read with Ilona Andrews Addicts group starting January 19, View all 22 comments. Buddy read with IAA. When I first read this book, it was my very first foray into Ilona Andrews' work. I loved it, dearly, but I did have issues with it - some that I was reminded of on this re-read. Does Declan have a reason for his actions?

But they still suck. Does he make it right in the end? But some of the things said prior to then, I'm left wondering if they were part of the 'act' or just his real thoughts. And Geo January Re-read: And I can't wait to read more about William. I'm reminded once again, as if I needed it, why I love Ilona Andrews. So I should actually read my previous reviews before I cross-post. I need to add some stuff here. It makes sense in the end, but still All I can say is stick with him, and even if you don't love him by the end, I think you'll still be wanting to continue on - after all, future books contain different main characters.

Rose's reaction to Declan was a little irritating, too. Instead of kicking his ass from here to kingdom come, she was a little too accepting. She does come around and do some ass-kicking, but I do wish it'd been sooner rather than later. Must have more William luckily his book is next.

And I just noticed that I first read this before the Kate Daniels series Original review cross-posted from here. Buddy read with my friends at IAA. The world here that Ilona Andrews created is a fascinating place. Not quite our world, not quite a fantasy world, it's vivid, captivating place filled with captivating characters. I was absolutely immersed in the Edge, and loved every moment that I spent there. Rose was a fascinating character. She's had the rose-colored glasses, pardon the pun, ripped off her face and expects the worst in everyone but family, whom she's fiercely loyal to.

She's very stubborn and almost can't back down from a challenge. I admit I loved this about her. She was not about to let anyone run her life or take over for her. Rose wasn't about to give her trust to anyone that didn't deserve it, and she damn sure wasn't going to let just anyone have her heart. Declan, I absolutely loved from the first moment that Rose tried to run him over. He was arrogant and brash, and yet at the same time he's honorable, loyal and admirable. His interactions with Rose and her family made my heart tremble.

I was rooting for him to find the way past Rose's defenses from the start. Beyond the utterly wonderful world, and vividness of Rose and Declan, there's a supporting cast of fully three-dimensional cast of secondary characters. Jack and Georgie, in particular, just hit my heart hard. I loved seeing through their point-of-views, feeling the heart-breaking burden of their gifts, the absolutely pure love they had for each other and Rose, and the disarming yearning they had for peace and happiness.

The evil that threatens Rose and all those that live in the edge is cruel and vicious, with complicated connections. I did feel that the resolution of it was a bit rushed, but I was so involved in the character's journeys that it was only after I finished that I really thought about that. As a first time reader of Ms. Andrews, I was absolutely enchanted with the world-building, the characters, and the emotions in On the Edge. And I can't wait to go back and visit the world again with Bayou Moon which is already out.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone that enjoys Patricia Briggs and Jeaniene Frost. Andrews has a way of pulling you into the world, to the point where I was up late into the night just having to read 'one more' chapter. View all 5 comments.

It is fresh, with sweet and bitter flavours in the right proportions, guaranteed to make you feel hot despite all the ice.

Hanging out on the Edge - a world between an ordinary and a magic world-was an undeniable romp. You just quaff it all an Warning: You just quaff it all and when you get to the bottom of your glass, you just want a refill right away. He is just so adorably and irresistably aristocratic erotic-ratic and aloof and yet you know that there is fire behind the ice a definite Mr Darcy-vibe, if you ask me.

And when push comes to shove, I do prefer blondes. Jun 15, Jilly rated it really liked it Shelves: I love Kate Daniels. Ilona Andrews knows how to write female characters with strong personalities and snarky humor - a winning combination in my eyes. I love sarcastic girls! This story is about Rose. She lives in a place called the Edge, which is in a land that sits between the two main lands in this world. One is magical, called the Weird, and the other is non-magical and like our modern world, called the Broken.

The Edge is in-between and the people have some magic. It's also like the back woo I love Kate Daniels. It's also like the back woods of Kentucky or something because these people are serious redneck hillbillies. Everybody wants her because she can pop out some magical babies. She's got special eggs But, Rose has been burned before. She had a boyfriend whom she thought loved her, and he betrayed her by planning on kidnapping her and selling her off to the highest bidder. So, this guy from Weird shows up and says he wants to marry her.

She's slightly skeptical, and totally not interested. She has built quite a life for herself - raising her two brothers and working as a maid, while living in squalor in hillbillyville and barely able to afford food. Why would she want to leave all of that? So, she tells this guy, Declan, that he has to complete three tests to win her and she will leave with him.

She has no plan to go anywhere with this guy, so she plans on making the tests harder than the bar exam. But, she still can appreciate a good-looking a-hole when she sees one. But, she would have even more fun when she watched that muscled back and that perfect ass recede as he walked down the path away from her house, never to return. This book is lots of fun and has many chuckle-worthy moments.

Declan is definitely a good love-interest, and William is also interesting. I am looking forward to William's book. View all 10 comments. Mar 11, Shannon rated it it was amazing Recommends it for: Honestly, this book probably has one of the most unique worlds I've come across in a long time. The character development is fantastic and the way the point of views shift really adds something to the overall story.

I enjoyed this book a lot more than Magic Bites and I'm definitely going to continue with this series! Rose was stubborn and ornery most of the book but for once she's a character that has legitimate reasons. Declan is a fascinating character with more sides to him than first appear.

Rose's two brothers, George and Jack, are probably the best children characters I've ever come across in a work of adult fiction. You get to see the world through their POV and it's really refreshing. I thought all the secondary characters were really great too, but the villain was kind of underdeveloped - I thought his minions were scarier. In a world where every paranormal romance book is about vampires, werewolves, or fairies, it's nice to read something that it so different. And this is definitely paranormal romance and way hotter than the Kate Daniels series.

This was probably one of my favorite books I've read all year and I can't wait for the next installment! View all 40 comments. Dec 12, Lisa Kay rated it it was amazing Shelves: I am actually reading it for the second time. I mean in a row! IA has created a captivating world here — well three, actually: The Broken, The Weird, and The Edge — as well as characters that leap off the page and into a delicious plot and back-story.

However, I have never had this kind of dilemma before: View all 15 comments. When a group of friends on Goodreads decided to read this book together, I knew that I had to join in on the fun. I am a huge fan of Ilona Andrews. I read this book a couple of years ago and enjoyed but but for some reason never picked up the rest of the books in the series.

This seemed like a perfect opportunity to refresh my memory of this book and jump into t Buddy Read with the fabulous Ilona Andrews Addicts Group! This seemed like a perfect opportunity to refresh my memory of this book and jump into the rest of the series. As I read this book, I could not help but think about the things that the writing team of Gordon and Ilona Andrews do consistently well so I thought I would touch on these things in this review: Excellent world building The Edge is something completely different than I have ever read.

In this world, there are three main divisions: The Broken would be our world-full of WalMarts, Burger Kings, and people who don't know about the existence of any other world. The Weird is a magical world with fewer people and less technology. The Edge is the point between the two worlds-magic and few people who self govern themselves. Tough main characters Rose is no damsel in distress. She doesn't expect anyone to take care of her or her brothers. She does what needs to be done without complaint.

She helps out whenever she can despite the fact that others have tried to use her. I love the fact that Rose thinks fast under pressure and is incredibly tough. She doesn't look for a fight but she is not one to back away from one when necessary. He is still a very good male lead. He doesn't hesitate to put himself in danger to protect Rose and her family and friends.

Declan became more and more likable for me as the story progress and by the end of the story I was sold. Something about Declan early in the book seemed almost a bit cartoonish but the more I learned about him the more real he became. Excellent banter What would a Ilona Andrews book be without the trademark banter? The interactions between the two main characters is extraordinary. I love how they are able to work some humor into every story usually through the character dialog.

Just the right amount of action This book has no shortage of action. The last part of the book is almost non-stop. There are also the quieter times where we get to really know the characters. By the end of the book, I knew how much the fight meant to everyone involved. The pacing of the book was excellent. I liked lots of other things in this book. Rose's brothers, Jack and Georgie, were amazing. These two kids were truly unique and amazing characters and ended up being one of the main strengths of the book. I loved that the characters in this book spent time doing such normal things.

They went to Burger King and made several trips to WalMart. These are things that most people can relate to although most of us don't start riots because of our attractiveness at any of these locations. I would highly recommend this book to others. I do think that this book would appeal to fans of paranormal romance. The romance aspect seemed to be a much larger focus than in other Ilona Andrews works. I enjoy romance so that wasn't an issue for me but it may be for other readers. I can't wait to start on the next book in this series. View all 14 comments. IA knows how to do it so one should wonder, why is it that I haven't read this series yet?

So, as a Kate Daniels fangirl, my brain was annoying me comparing the first books of both series and just the first because nothing compares to KD awesomeness and thinking: Oh, come on, don't gasp. Jack and George are one of the best children characters I've read in the genre. Jack specially with his "knife, knife, knife" scene. It really reminded me of: This one is solid. And yet, I can't give it five stars.

I couldn't enjoy the relationship between Rose and Declan because he was with her under a false premise: Of course, IA was playing with me. Not only he wasn't a pervert but we learn he's the real deal. Ladies love him, wanna marry him No wonder this two are perfect for each other. They're the most desirable thing in one dimension and the other! Anyways, when his real intentions were finally on the table, I didn't know what to trust. I had to reread some scenes with this new data in mind. By the time I finished it, and without realizing it, I was a shipper.

Not a mama Duchess shipper, but still. This wedding is on! We're going to Wal-Mart. Unfortunately On the Edge didn't win as much loyalty. Cue a unique magic world, which seems to the be the author's specialty - different areas of magic that shift if you leave them, and value measured by "white ligh "Go brush your teeth, comb your hair, put on dry clothes, and get the guns.

Cue a unique magic world, which seems to the be the author's specialty - different areas of magic that shift if you leave them, and value measured by "white light" or something.

It's a little confusing. Rose takes care of her younger brothers while fending off suitors over the years who wanted to kidnap her - and worse - when she revealed abilities. She's not pleased when a powerful blueblood shows up on her doorstep, determined to carry her off as her new wife. Writing style is of course great. There's humor, fun banter with dialogue, and the characters are basically likable. Rose took awhile to grow on me - while she has legit reasons to have a massive boulder on her shoulder trying my patience, it was annoying to deal with for awhile. Declan has some humor but he doesn't hold the playful, genuine alpha feel of Curran nor the magic of Rogan.

Their relationship held spark but it wasn't something I was as invested in. The villain of the story was a creepy thing. Challenging and horror-filled monsters, and I was intrigued by the side players as much as the main characters. I grew impatient with some of the action later on, but the ending was super sweet. Overall the book is just average.

And yikes, I really said that. Nov 19, Melanie rated it really liked it Shelves: I originally wanted to read these books, because while reading Sweep in Peace my friends kept telling me about the crossover of characters from this book. No big deal, I marked it in my notes and figured I'd read this series eventually. So I'm reading this, and completely loving it, and by the end I'm like, "Man, I really love Jack, he's like my favorite in this book! I didn't even take into account that the crossover characters could have aged!

And apparently, I didn't look at the names in the notes very well. Seriously, I was at a loss for words! This story is about the Edge , which is where the Weird and the Broken touch.

See a Problem?

The Weird has magic, and the Broken does not. They are mirrors, or parallel universes, to each other.

  5. On the Edge (The Edge, #1) by Ilona Andrews!

So essentially, the people that live in the Edge are between worlds. Edgers have a magical "flash", which is a very powerful magic whip that varies on potency with not only your practice, but also your bloodline. The more white your flash is, the better it is. There is a vast array of colors, but I know white is the best, blue and green are second, and red is the worst.

The main character of this book, Rose, surprises everyone when she is able to flash white. Not only are they surprised because she's always been looked over as nothing special, but because this must mean she has royalty in her bloodline. One would think this is a good thing, but it truly is a curse, because now people see how valuable she really is! So now they want to breed her, marry her off then breed her, or sell her off to be bred. This did remind me a little of Storm Born by Richelle Mead, but it's also my favorite Richelle Mead series, so whatever.

Rose is also taking care of her two younger brothers that I was fangirling over earlier. Georgie is a necromancer that doesn't fully understand his power. He also has a very hard time letting things die, so he's constantly resurrecting them, but at a price. Then we have Jack, who is an Edge Lynx! Georgie is only ten, and Jack is only eight, but their unconditional love for each other, and their sister was really heartwarming, and maybe the best thing about this book.

Rose and her brothers have had a hard life. Their mother passed away, but not before completely tarnishing their reputation. Their father also left them high and dry to find treasure. All they have left is their Grandmother who is one of the six elders in the town. None of them have any money, so Rose is doing her best, working minimum wage jobs and getting treated very poorly.

Rose is a really strong female lead, but people treat her pretty shitty in this book, and she is unable to do anything about it even though she is more powerful than any of them , because everything in the Edge has a repercussion. The Edge has no real law enforcement, so the families just do whatever retaliation they see fit. Rose cares too much about not being able to put food on the table for her bothers, to start a rift between the other people of the Edge. Rose is just barely getting by, while making the best of the situation for her little brothers, until a powerful nobleman comes to her door named Declan.

Rose immediately thinks he is after her for breeding purposes and that she can scare him off, but soon realizes that he is even more powerful than her. They make an arrangement that he has to complete three tasks for her, and if he is able to do so, then she has to come, willingly, with him. While all of this is going on, someone well, technically two people from Declan's past is also in the Edge, and is making quite a few problems for the townsfolk. This villain is making magical hounds that want to eat magic; whether it is spells, or just human bodies that contain magic.

After this information comes to light, it's a battle between Rose, Declan, and the townspeople versus this evil sorcerer. Rose soon discovers that Declan is worthy of her trust, and it has nothing to do with the tasks he is completing for her. Declan isn't likable right away far from it , but by the end I really came around to him, and cannot wait to start the second book in this series. Like, why was he at Wal-Mart, and why did he so badly want to date Rose out of nowhere?

They legitimately only shared a few words, but he seemed appalled that she wouldn't go out with him. Then, he kept trying and kept asking. It's like, dude, she told you no.
