This books is from the view of Aurora Skye's view point. We see how she feels about relationships, especially her friends, her parents, her neighbor (Hayden) and her trying to find the perfect prince. In the process of trying to find her prince, in an effort to please her mother, she tries out for the school play. While in one of her usual fights with Hayden, she gets the lead for "Much Ado About Nothing". She feels like she has to play matchmaker for all of her friends, making sure they are all prince material.
I found Aurora a bit whiny at times, but I firmly believed that she was in high school. I have heard similar things come out of high schoolers' mouths. This book is perfect for the YA group. I loved that it subtly told readers that you can choose who you kiss (or do more with) and who doesn't. This is something that I am not sure this age group is really taught anymore. But, with school and family, you don't always get what you want.
Thank you St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the digital ARC of this book!
