From New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author, J. Daniels, the first book in the Alabama Summer series.

When Mia Corelli returns to Alabama for a summer of fun with her childhood best friend, Tessa, there's only one thing keeping her on edge. One person that she'd do anything to avoid.


Benjamin Kelly. World's biggest dickhead.


Mia hates him with a fury and has no desire to ever see him again. When she decides to start her summer off with a bang and finally give away her v-card, she unknowingly hands it over to the one guy that excelled at making her life miserable, learning a valuable lesson in the process.


Always get the name of the guy you're going home with.


Ben can't get the girl he spent one night with out of his head. When she leaves him the next morning, he thinks he'll never see her again. Until he sees her lounging by the pool with his sister.


Mia is determined to hate Ben, even though she can't forget him.


Ben is determined to prove he's not the same guy he used to be.


What happens when the one person you wish never existed becomes the one person you can't imagine being without?

Young love

I gave this story 3 stars because I skimmed half of it. Unfortunately the characters are a little too young and immature for me and I found myself rolling my eyes at the way the main characters interacted with each other. Ben was not someone I could picture myself wanting to get into a relationship with, so that reduced the story's appeal.
