Noah Wilson is instantly enamored with a woman in line in front of him at Starbucks one morning. After an awkward conversation, they sit together and his interest only grows. His shyness/awkwardness prevents him from getting Angel's contact information before he departs the coffee shop. Convinced that he just needs 13 dates to fall in love with each other, he must find her and make it happen. It turns out she needs a lot more convincing than he ever imagined.

This book isn't exactly as advertised. I thought it would be a funny book about 13 disastrous dates, but instead it was more about (view spoiler)[ how Noah is challenged not only by Angel desiring spontaneity and excitement in every date while he is a bit boring and a planner, but also his desire to get married and have kids while she refuses to plan for a future she believes she can't have because of a heart condition that could kill her at any moment. The two of them do fall in love well before the 13th date, but this book was more about Angel's heart condition and how it affected their relationship than it was about the dates themselves. And while there was some humor in the beginning, once the heart condition was revealed, it wasn't very funny. (hide spoiler)] I still liked the book, but I think because I expected it to be different, my rating suffered a little.
