About this listen
He was supposed to be my escape for the weekend. I wasn’t supposed to fall for him.
My life feels as if it’s spiraling out of control the moment, Mom and Dad inform me that come Monday, I’m heading to Italy to “get to know” the son of an important business investor.
Apparently, it’s my responsibility as a daughter of a hotel tycoon or something.
I want to be a good daughter, but I’m tired of being looked over. I’m tired of having my life planned out for me.
So when I run into Jet Miller, the bad boy with a motorcycle, I pay him to take me away for the weekend. He’s convinced that I won’t fit into his life, but I don’t care. I need this break.
Two days of freedom quickly change into something more, and I find myself falling for Jet.
Only, he doesn’t know that once our 48 hour escape is over, I’m gone.
And I don’t know how to tell him.
Some rules are meant to be broken.
For fans of The Sun is Also a Star, To All the Boys I've Loved Before, and The Last Summer, you won't want to miss this epic romance! If you love misunderstood bad boys and heroines who fall in love with them, you’ll devour Rule #5: You Can’t Trust the Bad Boy. It has all the feels of your first love, all over again.

Story
Even though I’m around hot football players every afternoon, they are not allowed to date me. If they even come close to flirting, my dad, Coach “The Boss” Davis, makes them run laps around the field until they puke. Not only has he forbidden me to date anyone at all, he’s even made me the football team’s water girl so he can keep tabs on me. What Dad doesn’t know is that I spend every last second of those two blissful hours of practice in the scorching California heat staring at Tyson Blake. He is the epitome of perfection. And Dad hates him.

I’d kill to be the kind of dancer my mom wants me to be, but it’s just not in the cards. I’m sick of dieting. I'll never fit into the perfect ballerina mold, and I’m tired of wishing that I could. I’m over it. I’m done trying. I’m perfectly content to dance alone in the dark while the rest of the school is sleeping.

After I returned to my small hometown six months ago to attend my estranged grandmother's funeral, I swore I would never go back. That is, until my grandmother's lawyer calls me up. If I don't return to Harmony Island and fulfill my grandmother's stipulations, the generationally owned family inn will be turned over to the state and sold off to the highest bidder—my grandmother's rival and mother to the man who broke my heart, Missy Willis. I'm not sure I'm strong enough to return home, but I also know, I can't let Miss Willis win.

Yes, Carter Hastings is the prince of Eden Falls Academy—one of the most beautiful humans on earth—and boy, does he know it. But I can use this to my advantage. Since I basically signed a paper saying I'd never catch feelings for him, it makes my plan even more perfect. So I offer him a deal: a fake relationship.

Teen whirlwind romance
Jet is described as a bad boy but his behavior is anything but. Well, accept the initial kiss, the friends he hangs out with, and spending the night wrapped in Brielle’s arms the first night. He seems to be a misunderstood young man that has a difficult life with a drunkard as a father.
Jet and Brielle end up together for a weekend after Brielle gets upset with her parents. They are trying to match her up and send her to Italy for the summer to help seal a business deal. Jet and Brielle have instant chemistry even though they know they can’t be together. They make a cute couple regardless. My only complaint is that Brielle thinks that she has to go to Italy to help Jet’s family have a better life. No matter what kind of business deal there are going to be people that gain and people that suffer. But Brielle is young so I guess that is likely how a teenager would react.

Definitely for Teenagers
Story: 2.5 stars
I think teenage girls will love this story and since they are the intended audience, this is a success. It might be time for me to stop reading YA because, although our main characters sounded truly and authentically like teenagers, I couldn't take the angst. And the insta-love. My apologies to the author because it was clean and romantic when we weren't bogged down in inner-dialogues. I really liked the premise, but that it all happened in a day pushed the boundaries of believable for me. The main girl and boy are really likable teenagers, quite responsible, etc. and I really enjoyed watching their characters unfold and break away from the stereotypes they were perceived as. I was definitely cheering them on. I guess the love and the resolution just happened too fast and with such quick acceptance by parents (who suddenly changed character?) that I couldn't enter into the fantasy of it all.
Narration: 4 stars
Ms. Krane is an excellent narrator. Her pacing, inflections and expression are all very well done. Her male voices are deep enough to be believable without sounding strained. I'd happily listen to her again.

Cute addition to the Rules of Love Series
This is a cute, clean teenage romance that I’d recommend to my teenage daughter if I had one. I liked the banter in this one. It was a well-developed story, especially considering the entire story takes place during one weekend. I think the narrator was a great fit for this story.

Forever kind of love
Great story. Wondering how it will end in a HEA. Gives that hope of young love to last. A young man who loves with everything he has. Gives you a glimpse into what it’s like to grow up on the wrong side of the tracks and how you can’t judge a person by their circumstances. You will fall in love with the characters and cheer for their HEA.
