Review "Audrey and Harrys relationship sings with witty banter, electric heat, and feverish emotion, but Audreys journey to self-discovery reaps even more rewards, leaving readers with a fresh, realistic look at first love...A wild ride thats high on drama and deep in self-reflection."-- "Kirkus Reviews" Review Quote "Its enough that this well-cast British import cleverly elevates and deconstructs genre tropes without ever belittling them, but it goes beyond even that, candidly addressing the weight of expectation behind a first sexual experience and the misconceptions that women especially often have about theirs. A substantial romance for even the most skeptical teens.
