Book Overview

by Katy Upperman (Author)

Perfect for fans of Laura Nowlin and Tillie Cole, this swoonworthy and heartbreaking YA romance explores the repercussions of a night of stolen, dizzying kisses in this opposites attract meets boy next door tale.

I can't process this frantic, feverish kiss, but it shoots straight through me, a streak of heat and want and, oh my God--it's good.

When Max Holden climbs through her window one night, Jillian Eldridge knows she shouldn't let him kiss her. Her parents. His girlfriend. And the fact that Max hasn't been the same since his dad's stroke. But she can't resist, and when they're caught in the act by her dad, Jill swears it'll never happen again. Because kissing Max Holden is a terrible idea, but a bad thing never tasted so good.

With a new baby sibling on the way, her parents fighting all the time, and her dream of culinary school suddenly up in the air, Jillian starts spending more and more time with Max. And even though her father disapproves and Max still has a girlfriend, not kissing Max is easier said than done.
Will Jill follow her heart, and allow their friendship to blossom into something more, or will she listen to her head and stop kissing Max Holden once and for all?

Kissing Max Holden is perfect for readers who love:
- Taming a bad boy
- Boy Next Door
- Ex-Best-friends-to-lovers
- Complex family dynamics
- Laura Nowlin
