If you don’t like a smattering of serious on a bed of satire, clichéd characters, and over the top situations that know exactly what they are, then this book is definitely not for you.

When peppy-go-lucky Avery eventually wears down bad-to-the-bone Davin’s defences, he agrees to help her trash her reputation. And if Davin can help her pass math while he’s at it, all the better. So it’s goodbye to Little Miss Goody-Two-Shoes and hello to a whole new Avery.
