Short Summary of the book:

This book tells the story of Georgia, a college student and maths tutor. Although she is not really one of the popular girls, she strikes up an unlikely friendship with one of the students she tutors. Jeremiah is a rich boy, basketball captain and one of the popular guys in college.
Although Georgia has a boyfriend and Jeremiah a girlfriend, their friendship is a close one, one that changes for Georgia.
Georgia’s brother suffers from PTSD and depression following his stint in the army. Will Georgia and Jeremiah end up together or is their unlikely friendship going to die a death under the pressures of the expectations of others?

What I liked about the book:

I particularly liked how Jeremiah did not care whether Georgia was one of the popular girls or not. They got along and spent time together when they could.

What I didn’t like about the book:

I wasn’t impressed by how she continued with a relationship she was not happy in. the same could be said for Jeremiah’s relationship with his girlfriend.

My favourite bits in the book:

I loved where the easy friendship between Georgia and Jeremiah allowed them to spend time together without worrying about boyfriend and girlfriend problems.

My least favourite bits in the book:

I didn’t like it when Jeremiah did not back Georgia up when his girlfriend caused problems for her.

Any further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?

I don’t know if the author plans any sequels to this book.

What books could this be compared to and why?

I can’t think of any books to compare this one at present although the love triangle is certainly not a stranger in a lot of romance novels.

Recommendation:

In summary, I would recommend this book for the following readers:

Children
No
Young Adult
Yes
Adult
Yes

If you like romance novels this book could be the book for you.

I look forward to reading more books by this author.

Book Description by Author:

One day to remember forever, one trip to last a lifetime.

Life has a way of throwing you curve balls. Dirty laundry, bad boyfriends, and a car breaking down. I thought I had been dealt the worst cards possible my senior year of college, then I got the call that would change it all. My brother had tried to kill himself and I had to get to him now. Jeremiah is my only hope.

I have a secret, and I don't know how to tell Georgia. She's been my best friend since I started college, but this could change everything. When she calls me and asks for a ride when her car breaks down, I don't expect the interception we have to face.

We only have today to create a Snapshot that will last a lifetime, or change our paths forever.
