My review if for "What I Don't Like About You" by Laura Burton. It's a fun, clean romantic story that sets the stage for the Truth or Dare series. I enjoyed reading the journey of Mark and Debbie. Even though this is a short story, Laura presents vivid scenes that drew me instantly, making it engaging and fast-paced. The integration of past events which is the foundation for Mark and Debbie's story is well done. In a matter of a few hours, the dynamic between the protagonists change; and the dialogues are full of sassiness, playfulness and a lot of heart. I have not read any other stories from this boxset and cannot comment on the other stories.

I received an ARC from Laura Burton, and this review is left voluntarily.
