My first kiss has always belonged to him.
I've always shared everything with my best friend—except my biggest secret.
She doesn't know I have a crush on her big brother.
There's a really good reason I've never told her. She hates all the girls who throw themselves at Tate. The last thing I want is for her to start hating me too.
But now that we've graduated and I'm about to leave for college, suddenly I've realized how much I'll regret never taking a chance on what I want most.
Then she dares me to kiss someone before summer ends—a push to break me out of my shell. So really, she can only blame herself for this, right?
Because I've always intended my first kiss to be with Tate. And I'm starting to think he won't mind. In fact, he might want it as much as I do.

If you love best friends and first love in a story that will make you laugh and swoon and die for more, grab this book today! 

My Review: 4 Stars

Kat has just graduated from high school and has never been kissed, but she's sure been crushing hard on her best friend's older brother. Piper, the friend, has a mission to see her three best friends kissed by summer's end. There's something always intriguing to me about this trope and it was fun to watch it unfold, especially with a few unexpected twists.

Summertime is magical, especially when you live in Florida by the beach, but when you add a first love, first kiss, and first romance into the equation, it's like unicorns and rainbows. Tate is a typical older brother and a huge flirt, but once he gives his heart, there's no question about where he stands.

Once that first kiss was given, butterflies erupted in an earth shattering movement across my stomach because Holy Swoon! That kiss was well worth the wait!

These characters are sweet and fun, but I wished a few parts had been developed a little more. I wanted more juicy details and wasn't completely satisfied--it was like eating half a donut, instead of  the whole thing. But the story line is fun and definitely swoony, and I'm excited to read the rest of this new series!

Content: mild romance (kissing, swoony)
