Never Been Kissed

New School = New Chance for That First Kiss
Summer is ending, and for once that doesn’t seem like such a bad thing to Elise. She’s hoping that starting fresh at a new high school will turn her first-kiss prospects around. New guys, new friends, and a new lease on life.
What she wasn’t counting on was all the new pressure–to hang with the right crowd, wear the right clothes, and date the right guy. Just when it seems she’s on top of the world, everything comes crashing down. Could one bad choice derail her future?
ISLAND BREEZES
Boys just aren’t worth it. Not what some girls will do to hook that guy.
How can a girl’s life end up such a mess when all she wants is to not be sweet sixteen and never been kissed? We’ve all made bad choices, but Elise really messed up.
And her new “friends” made it even worse. Elise learned the hard way that a Christian shouldn’t comprise her values, but will she ever live down the disgrace and just be a happy teen?
You all know this is a good book. It’s a Melody Carlson novel. Quit sitting there wondering just what kind of messes Elise managed to create. Go out and get the book.
