Book Blurb
Seventeen-year-old Zae Monroe is over relationships. Between getting cheated on by the only guy she’s ever loved and watching her parents' marriage crumble, she decides to turn the tables and go after what she wants, and what she wants are kisses. Athletes, musicians, poets, bad boys—their lips are all on her agenda, and it's time to collect.
Zae proposes a contest with her friends to see who can kiss the most boys during spring break. But what starts as a harmless competition leads to a downward spiral of drama. Zae is forced to face the reasons behind her boy angst and starts to wonder if she was wrong about the male race...or at least some of them.
Bestselling author Wendy Higgins delivers a searing YA romance filled with endless flirting, heartthrob boys, and of course, lots of kisses!

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala
Zae and her
girls are juniors and cheerleaders at Peakton High School. They are proud of who they are. Zae’s life takes a turn when her boyfriend
cheats and her parents split. She loses
faith in love and boys. She refuses to
put herself in that situation again. The
author dishes up this idea for Zae and her friends to collect as many kisses
from different boys as they can over spring break without falling for the
guy. She wants to give the boys a taste of
their own medicine. It starts out
innocent enough until someone begins writing poems about her and things get
worse as the truth about her parents begin to come out. Her mood plummets and she gets a bit dark and
determined to punish boys.
However, I like
how the author shows her how she is surrounded by more nice guys than she knew. There are not as many jerks as she
thought. As the story unfolds she must
deal with her loss of family and her trust.
I also love the fact that she takes a complete leap of faith. You can see her change as a result.
The girls
were real and believable. They partied,
and they fought. Their relationship
wasn’t perfect and hit bumps along the way.
I liked the realness and their loyalty.
I also liked how the author kept the reader and the girls guessing about
the writer of the poems. It was fun to
try and figure out who was doing it. The
ending was awesome. Zae takes charge and
goes after what she wants. Love how it
ends. I give it a 4 out of 5.
