Firsts Are Always Messy (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798869163011)

Jenny Kearns has been in love with her best friend, Matt Thompson, for years. But when a bet blurs the lines between friendship and love, Matt makes it clear he doesn't have feelings for Jenny, and she's devastated.

Enter Kyle Thompson: Matt's older, more infuriating brother. He's home from college on Spring Break and offers to give Jenny, who keeps failing her driver's test, driving lessons. The more time Jenny spends with Kyle, the more she finds herself drawn to the mysterious boy next door.

When Kyle finally admits he's in love with her, they decide to keep their blossoming tryst a secret from Matt, who is dealing with growing pains of his own. Matt's ex-girlfriend is pregnant with his child, forcing his college plans to take a back seat to fatherhood.

First love is messy. Then again, isn't everything?
