When new nurse, Tate Collins, meets an airline pilot while visiting her brother, the pair are forced to get along. They start a no-string attached agreement, but even with that in place, feeling begin to grow. As this happens, Tate discovers Mile’s past and why he says he is not emotionally available. Do Tate and Miles have a future? Or will that complicate their lives too much? I really enjoyed this book. It was a light-hearted, easy romance read. A perfect book to take on a trip or read at the end of your day. It is very easy to connect to both Tate and Mile’s varying perspectives.

Toy Story 2 is a good sequel to Toy Story, it takes everything good in Toy Story and adds more to it, making it better than its predecessor. The story starts with Woody being stolen by a greedy toy collector, which leads Buzz and friends through an adventure to save Woody. The whole story constantly introduces new aspects and clever ideas about toys, which adds depth and meaning to every action in the movie. The comedy and pacing of the movies are still as good, if not even better, than the original.

Toy Story is the first ever feature length 3D computer-animated film, a classic that must be watched by everyone at least once in their lives. The movie still holds up today even though the film dates back three decades. Toy Story tells us about the secret life that toys live when humans are not present and looking. The story starts when Andy (the kid that owns the toys) gets a new toy called Buzz Light-year.
