First kisses ruin everything.

Or at least that’s how Abigail Lucille Panashe feels. Her first kiss wasn’t even a kiss. So this summer, Abby and her friends discuss potential suitors for that romantic, fireworks kind of kiss for the sixteen-year-old. It just can’t be her best friend, Theo Winthers, because that would be weird. Especially that for the last ten years Abby and her late Papi imagined Theo accompanying her to the debutante ball.

Problem is, her mother and sister would never allow a dirt-loving, torn-clothes-wearing boy to damage their fancy image in the wealthy town of Blue Silverings. That’s why they want next-door-neighbor Hudson Giordani to be Abby’s escort. He is all about polished shoes and velvet suits. But Abby can’t face the guy she vomited all over. When she runs to Theo for comfort, the ache of missing her father unravels her.

With all the pressure to be perfect, Abby finds herself growing feelings for someone who can destroy her chance of being the hot chocolate debutante princess her father would be proud of. Will she choose her past or her future?
