Editorial Reviews

These stories are not graphic, they are beautiful and sexy.

— Off the Shelf

Finding a book that portrays positive sexuality for teens is more difficult than people may think. With stories ranging from sweet to bittersweet to fantastically erotic, this book should be in teen sex-ed programs across the country!

— Tea and Tomes blog

These stories are sometimes funny, sometimes poignant, and sometimes disturbing, but always well and sensitively told.

— Hi-Rise

This book will appeal to older teenage readers of both sexes who are making choices about their own sexuality.

Exudes promise, and it delivers! Each story is simply as beautiful as the one before.
