Publisher Description
Chastity, aka Chaz, is a high school senior who cannot wait to flee her closed-minded, constricting small town. One night at the beginning of winter break when a stranger enters the restaurant where Chaz works, she is instantly taken with him—and his sexy body. Sebastian is staying with his dad for the holidays, and over the course of the break, from helping her cope with an unexpected crisis at home and a friend’s accidental pregnancy to sending her virginity to a point of no return, Sebastian changes Chaz’s life forever. Intelligent and entertaining, Kiss It is a tribute to the unexpected thrills of regular life.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
While 18-year-old Chaz is avoiding making choices about her future, she's completely obsessed with sex and is on the prowl. She lusts after cute but troubled Sebastian, who's visiting his father over Christmas break in Chaz's small Minnesota town, but as they become acquainted, her feelings for him deepen. Soon, she finds herself revealing her personal confusion, concerns over her "emotionally constipated mother," and her father's cancer diagnosis. While Chaz's audacious attitude toward sex can seem unrealistic, she makes it clear it's a front to mask her vulnerability ("It's funny how showing my emotional innards was far more daunting than taking off my bra"). The psychological growth she achieves due to her best friend's unexpected pregnancy and her father's illness, is blatantly spelled out ("My life is about wanting to have sex and running and surviving my time in Milton it all feels so trivial and small and petty"), but readers will relate to her fears of being trapped in her parents' lives and appreciate that, while she doesn't lose her assertive edge, she welcomes real tenderness. Ages 14 up.
