About this listen

Trina Clemons needed the money. Why else would she - the most organized, prepared student in school - spend the summer as a nanny and partner with the biggest slacker ever?

Now she's ready to tackle nannyhood with her big binder of research and schedules. Just don't ask her about the secret job of "fixing" the bad habits of a certain high school player....

Slade Edmunds prefers easy hookups, and Trina is definitely not his type. She's all structure and rules, while Slade wants to just have fun. Fortunately, Trina has no idea about the bet Slade made with his best friend that he can totally get her to unwind by the end of summer.... Then the weirdest thing happens. There's chemistry. A lot of it. But nothing gets between a boy and a girl like a big, fat secret....

Cute.

This was such a cute YA.
Both characters grew as people, the kids were so much fun, especially Jilly.

Not great, not terrible.

It was very difficult to like any of the characters. I know Trina are is like 17, but she's a bit of a bully and behaves extremely selfish the majority of the time. At least Slade has obvious character growth throughout the book...but Trina is mean and self centered the vast majority of the time. Her self importance got old very quickly. It's the first book from this author where I really struggled to finish it, but pushed through eventually.
