Sydney Montgomery doesn't plan to make a career out of house-sitting. It's just the means to an end. In a month, she’s off to visit the galleries of Europe and finish up the degree she needs to make her career as a museum curator. The life she's been working for is finally within reach. In the meantime, she’s getting paid to sip margaritas and wrangle a naughty dog poolside in California. When the pool guy shows up with his hot body, cool persona, and eyes like iridescent blue oceans, she’s mesmerized. Except Dr. Lautner Sullivan isn’t the pool guy at all. He’s a college wide receiver turned pediatric resident that fate delivered to the wrong house. Lautner is every girl’s dream, but Sydney is not every girl. She’s immune to rainbows, fairytales, surf-side picnics, and the “L” word. Thirty days is all she plans to give him, but fate wants to give them forever.

I really wanted to love this book. It started well but quickly slid into some areas I could not understand.
*The relationship between Sydney and Avery. The strange dynamic surrounding their mothers' death and who was allowed to behave certain ways.
*Another situation that could have been resolved with a ten minute conversation instead of three years of estrangement.
*Keeping a child from a parent because of miscommunication.
I loved Lautner but I could not understand Sydney or her reticence about relationships. She was young but some of her issues were so immature. I felt bad for the vet and thought he deserved much better than he was treated.
