Someday…
For Cat Nichols, someday was finally here. Going away to college meant a fresh, new start for the girl who lived locked away in a prison of insecurities. She was ready to experience new things and meet new people. But she wasn’t ready for him…
Jace Butler had encountered things no one person should have to endure. Trying to come to terms with his past, while living in the present, was a constant struggle for the man whose demons lie dormant beneath the skin of his rippling body and sexy smile. But when Cat walked into his world, his chance for a better life, came with her…
After finding each other, Cat and Jace realize that both their past and present issues were trying to ruin their chance for a better future. Issues that will have to be dealt with – once and for all – together… or apart.

Cat, a smart, shy, awkward nobody, is at college and away from home for the first time in her life. She has a list of things she’s never done and hopes to accomplish some of them in college. Cat is insecure but willing to open up to new experiences. Then she sees him: Jace, the cool, calm, and HOTTEST guy ever. He is intrigued by the shy, brown-eyed girl. He knows he has a certain something, something “real.” But does he deserve a young, innocent beauty like her?Cat eventually becomes the “light” for the deployed army recruit, who lives in constant darkness. Both have their personal demons and together they learn to combat them.
A typical YA he said/she said, story gives an in-depth look at the fears, insecurities, and excitement of a college romance. Cat is certainly relatable—she’s introverted, smart, and oblivious to her own beauty (inside and out.) Cat is like Rory from Gilmore Girls—simple, funny, and cute. I also liked Jace wanting to protect Cat and how he goes all death-match with one silent look. HOT!
Overall, this was an enjoyable, sweet story. I did feel, though, that I got the gist of Cat and Jace’s story and have no need to read the rest of the series to read more of them.

Someday Girl The Someday Series Book 1 edition by Melanie Shawn Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
So far this has been a fine read. I would recommend this for either right- before- bed, or on the beach, a quiet afternoon, etc. There are quite a few dynamic features to the story line. A few twists and tunes, and the characters are pretty well developed. There are a few parts that could be edited slightly better, but I do know most authors on here prefer for their readers to help them out in this aspect.
It was not hard reading by any means, but it was also not an elementary level book. Be prepared for some love scenes. But honestly, sometimes they do add to the storyline, right?
I hope to either purchase more in this series (if there is one) or get the author motivated to write more! Not that this was left with just a cliffhanger or anything, I have just loved how the storyline was developed, and would love to know where this could head into the future. Knowing how the characters have developed, interacted, and have grown leaves me with a lot of hope for more. I always love series/ books where there is a spin- off into a similar setting, but with acquaintances that the characters had, or will have.
Overall, this is a great value and I would highly recommend it. It is a great value for the price, and it simply cannot be beat! I will be purchasing more from this author in the future, and look forward to new releases.
“Someday Girl” is a well-written, heartfelt love story and a great introduction to the New Adult genre.
Cat Nichols has needed to get out of her famous mother’s shadow for some time now. Moving away to college happens to be the perfect opportunity. As Cat’s life fills up with great friends and interesting classes, she begins to see herself in a new, healthier light. Then, she meets Jace Butler, the sexy bartender with shadows of his own and an infatuation with Cat that won’t let up. Can Cat and Jace outrun the shadows holding them back from starting a new life together, or will they be swallowed by the demons that lurk there?
As someone who doesn’t usually like romance, I have to say that “Someday Girl” was pretty good. Both Jace and Cat are well fleshed out and believable enough. They play off each other okay. Not great, but okay. Instant infatuation just isn’t my cup of tea when it comes to writing devices. It sort of defeats the purpose of making the characters get to know each other in my opinion.
I really appreciate that Jace is a genuinely good guy, despite his rough past. He never uses what has happened to him as an excuse to be mean or hurtful to Cat or anyone else. If he had turned out to be a total jerk because of what he's been through, I probably would have stopped reading. My tolerance for manipulative/abusive love interests has been at “0” for some time now. He does inevitably mess up, but you can see why he makes the choice he does and he eventually sees where he goes wrong, which was great to see in terms of character development.
The writing is also well crafted. The narration alternates between Cat and Jace’s point of view and Shawn does an excellent job giving them their own voices. She doesn’t just rely on telling us who’s talking, like I’ve seen in many books. She actually gives both characters distinct idiolects that work great for their personalities and backgrounds. Alternating narrators takes a lot of effort, trial and error, and attention to detail, so kudos to Shawn for pulling it off so well. I just wish the great writing could have made Cat’s self-perception a little more original and creative.
In Shawn’s defense, she does a great job explaining why Cat sees herself the way she does, but I really wish she would have tried a little harder with the resulting insecurities. There’s a few mentions of her feeling a bit awkward in social settings, but most of the focus is on how Cat doesn’t see herself as beautiful. She sees herself as smart and capable, but for some reason she can’t realize that she’s physically attractive. It usually wouldn’t bother me that much--just about every young female protagonist seems to have this issue and I doubt that’s going to change--but everyone constantly harps on her about how gorgeous she is. Apparently Cat is kin to Aphrodite herself, so if she could go against what she’s been told and see that she’s intelligent, what was stopping her from realizing she was pretty before Jace showed up? If Shawn had focused on one particular physical shortcoming—or if the protagonist actually had a physical shortcoming for once—it could have worked, but as is, Cat’s insecurity about her appearance feels flat and doesn’t garner any sympathy from me as a reader.
But, like most romances, the most important element of the book is the interaction and relationship between the two leads, with Shawn does really well, both through the characters themselves and her excellent writing. So, if romance is your thing and you’re looking for something to read, give “Someday Girl” a try.
