Matt is a junior at MIT. He’s geeky, he's witty, he's brilliant.
And he’s also very, very stupid.
When beautiful, cool, insightful Julie moves in with Matt’s family, why (oh why!) does he pretend to be his absent brother Finn for her alleged benefit?
It seems harmless enough until her short-term stay becomes permanent. And until it snowballs into heart-squeezing insanity. And until he falls in love with Julie, and Julie falls in love with Finn.
But … Matt is the right one for her. If only he can make Julie see it. Without telling her the truth, without shattering them all. Particularly his fragile sister Celeste, who may need Julie the most.
You saw Matt through Julie’s eyes in FLAT-OUT LOVE. Now go deeper into Matt’s world in this FLAT-OUT MATT novella. Live his side of the story, break when his heart breaks, and fall for the unlikely hero all over again.
Take an emotional skydive for two prequel chapters and seven FLAT-OUT LOVE chapters retold from his perspective, and then land with a brand-new steamy finale chapter from Julie.

Book review
It's no secret how big of a fan I am of mrs. Park's book flat out love. I fell in love with Matt then and I just re fell in love with him all over today. It's something about the geeky tshirt and MIT nerdy behavior that makes me weak in the knees. Re reading many of my favorite chapters and scenes from Matt's point of view was a gift. FOL was a love story built around one families rather unique grieving process. In this book Mrs. Park gave us insight to the infamous Finn and his thoughts toward his family. There is know doubt Finn was the life of the party, but Matt was the glue that held everything together. I mean this literally. My heart really broke for him all over again. He took care of everyone else, but know one took care of him. Finn was a great big brother, the one piece of advice he gave Matt in the beginning rang true in the end. Don't be safe, allow your self to have fun, allow yourself to be loved by someone for ALL the right reasons not just the obvious ones. Matt and Julie's love story retold was even better this go around. This Gem allowed me as huge fan of FOL to re live some of the happiest and saddest moments in one of my favorite books. I will say after this I still wasn't fans of Matt's parents, but I have a new found love for Celeste. Mrs. Park I think she needs her on book hint hint lol. My favorite part of this book was the ending. After reliving happy and sad moments through Matty's eyes....now knowing this geekish, sexy intelligent man doesn't just posses intellectual skills but also skills in the bedroom( read the last chapter, lol)....good LAWD.
Let me personally thank you Mrs. Park for this amazing gem and sharing it with us!
Great job.... I loved it!
If you haven't read flat out love I strongly encourage you to. It was on my top reads for 2012 list. You wont regret it. You will laugh, cry and even get pissed off. But the characters and there story you will always remember!!
Cheers,
