Helpful Score: 2

Evangeline is a 16 year old in search of the perfect kiss. Her efforts to renew her self image are fueled by a self help book found among her mother's things and a romance novel filled with unrealistic goals. Like most of us, Evangeline falls in love with the idea from the romance novel that one perfect kiss is what she needs to start new.

The chemistry in this book seems just about right for teens. The descriptions of each kiss encounter were a delight to read. I was disappointed with the lack of development between Evangeline and Brody. I felt that there was a missed opportunity to further that relationship between characters and convey to the reader the importance of really getting to know someone, and not just through email. I enjoyed the character's self discovery at the end of this extremely quick read. This was the most important lesson of the book.
