I want more than a kiss. I want forever.
Basically, I have a short, silly list of what I want in a guy:
Fascinating Smile Stormy Eyes Passionate Soul Sees the real me when no one else does.
Okay, maybe I've read too many romantic fantasies. But even though I have dozens of book boyfriends, I'm ready for a real one.
My friends are determined to help me have my first kiss before the end of the summer, but I want more than just a surface attraction and a brief fling.
I want real, lasting love.
Too bad I'm a nerdy, boring, curvy kind of girl. Guys just aren't interested in that.
My friend Dante, however, is a charming girl-slayer and the perfect person to help me figure out how to attract the guy of my dreams.
I just have to ignore the fact that he checks all my boxes.
Because he isn't interested in the forever kind of love.

My Review: 5 Stars
Sadie is like almost any bookworm--she lives vicariously through characters in books and has a lot of book boyfriends. When challenged to have her first kiss by summer's end, she decides to take it a step further and find love, and who better to help her than her good friend, Dante?
Friends-to-lovers is a favorite trope of mine because I love that the characters have a solid relationship to build on and the first realization that something more might be in the wings is so satisfying.
My heart went out to Sadie. She's not model thin and isn't super confident about herself, her looks, her size, and her ability to find someone to love her. That seems to be the plight of so many out there. Dante definitely didn't help things a time or two, but he's got goodness in his core.
The give and take of this coming-of-age story resonated with my heart and I really enjoyed Sadie's journey to find love. This is such a fun summer beach read series and I can't wait for more!
