Meet Cute


 Shirley J.                  Adult Fiction                                Child Star, Lawyers, Life Upheaval

Meet Cute by Helena Hunting     384 ages

Kailyn Flowers was a huge fan of former t.v. star, Daxton Hughes.  So much so she collected every bit of memorabilia she could.   His face adorned multiple t-shirts she owned, action figures, cups, ad infinitum.  Then when she started law school,  who does she run into and has a fan-girl melt-down over, but, Daxton Hughes!   He is actually in class with her.   Him and his jerk friends.  Daxton in full star mode, turns on the smile he reserves for fan situations and is pleasant enough at the time, but, later when she asked for his help in turning in a paper, he betrays her.  Going through many hardships in her life, she can never get over the outright act of betrayal Daxton committed and her grade and her grade point average suffered because of it.   They never saw each other again until the day Dax comes walking into her law firm office with his parents to set up a trust.    Dax acts as if he doesn't remember her and nothing happened.   It is all Kailyn can do to remain professional throughout the meeting.  When a tragedy occurs, Kailyn and Dax are thrown back together.   He seeks her help and being a good person she doesn't refuse him but they will be tested throughout this new turn of events.   A good story told well.  Remember, "It ain't over till its over."   I recommend this one to high schoolers on up.
