Synopsis:
My name is Milo Caro and I have a confession to make.
I’ve been in love with Colton Mathews since I was five. He should have known that sharing a cookie with a sugar obsessed little monster would do the trick–it sealed his fate. So really, the fact that he’s sporting a black eye, a limp, almost got ran over by a car, and was nearly responsible for another person’s death? Right. HIs fault. Not mine.
I made a pact with myself–this weekend would be different. I’d come home for my brothers wedding, smile, and Colton would naturally melt into my arms, we’d get married have five kids, live in a house by the river, and get a dog named scratch (clearly I’ve thought this through).
What really happened? I punched my brother in the face, Colton kissed me and apologized, I lied about having a boyfriend, oh and everyone wants to meet the mystery man.
They say laughter always comes before insanity–ha, ha. All I wanted was my brother’s best friend…instead I’m sitting in prison.
Let this be a lesson to you all…life rarely happens the way you want it to.
Damn cookie.

Review by Michele:
*I received a copy of this book from NetGalley*
This was my first book by Rachel Van Dyken and I had no idea what to expect. I went in blind - I didn't even read the synopsis, which is very rare for me. What a pleasant surprise! It was hilarious and sweet and romantic... and pretty ridiculous. I needed a light book right now, and The Consequence of Loving Colton was perfect. I laughed so much. There were moments that were totally outrageous and unbelievable, but it is just a fun book. I loved the "best friend, little sister" romance. I really liked all of the characters, even Jayne, who everyone hates. And Max.... I loved him, but I also wanted to strangle him! The entire story takes place over only 2 days, but so much happens!
If you are looking for a fun, light read that will make you laugh out loud, I recommend The Consequence of Loving Colton!

I am looking forward to the next book to get Max's story. I can only imagine the shenanigans that will go on!!
4 stars.
