Synopsis
Seventeen-year-old
Mercedes Ayres has an open-door policy when it comes to her bedroom, but only
if the guy fulfills a specific criteria: he has to be a virgin. Mercedes lets
the boys get their awkward, fumbling first times over with, and all she asks in
return is that they give their girlfriends the perfect first time- the kind
Mercedes never had herself.
Keeping
what goes on in her bedroom a secret has been easy- so far. Her absentee mother
isn’t home nearly enough to know about Mercedes’ extracurricular activities,
and her uber-religious best friend, Angela, won’t even say the word “sex” until
she gets married. But Mercedes doesn’t bank on Angela’s boyfriend finding out
about her services and wanting a turn- or on Zach, who likes her for who she is
instead of what she can do in bed.
When
Mercedes’ perfect system falls apart, she has to find a way to salvage her
reputation and figure out where her heart really belongs in the process. Funny,
smart, and true-to-life, FIRSTS is a one-of-a-kind young adult novel about
growing up.
Why I Can’t Wait
Wow
that’s all I can say. This is definitely different and that’s why I find it so interesting.
Okay, it's definitely different but I really want to read this book now! I can't remember what it reminds me of (book or movie, I'm not sure) but I am definitely adding Firsts to my TBR list. Thanks for sharing :)
