igh school senior Keely Collins takes on firsts, lasts, and everything in between in this sweet, sex-positive rom-com for fans of Meg Cabot and Jenny Han. It seemed like a good plan at first. When the only other virgin in her group of friends loses it at Keelys own eighteenth birthday party, shes inspired to take things into her own hands. She wants to have that experience too (well, not exactly like that--but with someone she trusts and actually likes), so shes going to need to find the guy, and fast. Problem is, shes known all the boys in her small high school forever, and its kinda hard to be into a guy when you watched him eat crayons in kindergarten. So she cant believe her luck when she meets a ridiculously hot new guy named Dean. Not only does he look like hes fallen out of a classic movie poster, but he drives a motorcycle, flirts with ease, and might actually be into her. But Deans already in college, and Keely is convinced hell drop her if he finds out how inexperienced she is. Thats when she talks herself into a new plan: her lifelong best friend, Andrew, would never hurt or betray her, and hes clearly been with enough girls that he can show her the ropes before she goes all the way with Dean. Of course, the plan only works if Andrew and Keely stay friends--just friends--so things are about to get complicated. Cameron Lunds delightful debut is a hilarious and heartfelt story of first loves, first friends, and first times--and how making them your own is all that really matters.
