True love doesn't exist. "Love" never lasts. I've witnessed it first hand but somehow, deep down, I still want a soul-linking, all-consuming, epic love. A love that never fades, overcomes all obstacles, and lasts forever. A love that just doesn't exist. How ironic; I'm named after one of the most influential female romance novelists of the 19th century and I couldn't be any less romantic. 

I don't date, I don't do feelings, and I do not say "I love you". Summer hookups, meaningless flirtation, and leading men on- that's my specialty. Everyone knows that. Well, at least I thought they did. So why in hells' name is he on my doorstep at 2AM in his underwear, only his underwear.
_

Jane Green, daughter of two college literature professors, couldn't be more different from the parents who raised her. Being cynical, analytical, and critical of everyone and everything around her allows her to avoid being crushed by the reality of her unrealistic expectations of love. Casual hookups and her absence from the dating scene is what allows her to avoid hurting others.

So why won't her summer one night stand just leave her alone? That's what she wants to know too.
