When teenage movie star Graham Larkin accidentally sends small town girl Ellie O'Neill an email about his pet pig, the two seventeen-year-olds strike up a witty and unforgettable correspondence, discussing everything under the sun, except for their names or backgrounds.
Then Graham finds out that Ellie's Maine hometown is the perfect location for his latest film, and he decides to take their relationship from online to in-person. But can a star as famous as Graham really start a relationship with an ordinary girl like Ellie? And why does Ellie want to avoid the media's spotlight at all costs?

My Thoughts.
I've only recently started getting into Contemporary Romance books and luckily enough I've read nothing but enjoyable stories with likeable characters, fantastic plots and loveable romances and this book is no exception.
This is the first book that I've ever read of Jennifer's, the synopsis drew me in straight away, because who wouldn't want their favourite actor being your secret pen-pal and then turning up months later to hopefully start a relationship with you?
Of course when our teen heartthrob shows up to shoot a movie in Ellie's hometown he also inadverdently brings along the paparazzi looking for their next big story, but you see Ellie and her Mum have a secret, a big one that they've kept hidden for many years and it's just one appearance on a photo or on tv that will ruin the life that they've been living in their otherwise quiet Maine town.
So after a few misunderstandings and against the wishes of Ellie's Mum they start to spend time together, these two make such a cute couple and you can't help but wish that they'd both sort whatever problems they have out and just get together already!
Add one hot, very popular but lonely movie star and an ordinary, everyday teen girl together and watch the sparks fly.
I really enjoyed this story and I will definitely be checking out 'The Statistical Probability Of Love At First Sight' if this book is an indication of Jennifer's writing.
Highly recommended if you like cute, sweet Contemporary Romances, be sure to give this one a read.
I give this 4/5.
