Goodreads Synopsis:
In class, she's a sort
of zoned-out girl, and he's the year one class' most perfect,
good-looking guy. But the two of them have a secret, and their
extraordinary "love experience" will start now!
Himuro Yukina, known as the "Absolute Zero Snow-woman" is a cold and observant girl. In addition, she is actually a popular cell phone novelist who goes by the name of Yupina. Sadly, with no other human contact than her cousin, Yukina is unable to express more romance in her novels. Kitami Shigure, your so-called "typical bishounen", who is really a womanizer, has fallen into Yukina's trap when she blackmails him, and they end up "love-acting" for the sake of their secrets.

Review:
I am enjoying this
series more now, and I am determined to get caught up in it, but I’m still
waiting to be enraptured in the story. I’m just not really feeling Yukina’s
character, or as much of the romance as I should be.
I am enjoying the
romance, and even liking the love triangle (and forming square), even if I’m
not connecting quite as much as I could be. I like the potential I see in all
of the characters, and I’m enjoying what I’ve gotten so far, but there just
isn’t enough for me yet.
I like Akira—he
seems like a sweetheart to me, if a little possessive. I like Shigure, although
he’s frustrating me. Shigure and Yukina are definitely oblivious to their
actual feelings, or in denial of them, which I hope doesn’t last too much
longer.
We got some family
background for Yukina and Akira, and I liked that; I also just like Yukina’s
parents and find them absolutely adorable. I’m intrigued by the new girl, Mami,
and look forward to officially getting to know her in the next book. I know
that the romance is going to get heavier, or at least more physical, in later
books, and I look forward to that, being the romance junkie that I am.
I’m looking forward
to being completely enraptured in this series, and I feel like it’s coming—I
just can’t wait to get there.
