Sixteen Kisses: A novella

This novella was highly enjoyable. A light and easy read about Cassie's sixteenth birthday, though the story really begins the day before her birthday. Jared, Cassie's older brother's best friend, finds out about Cass' inner turmoil over never having been kissed. Cassie wants what most of us girls crave for in our first kiss: for it to be real, passionate, swoon-worthy, etc. So Jared arranges a present for Cassie; he dares the guys at school to give her sixteen kisses for her birthday. We experience a wide range in types of kisses with Cassie (though I am personally weary about where each of those boy's lips had been).
This is probably the only novella where I'm not agonizing over how soon it ended. This by no means implies that I thought it was terrible. I just think Kelly Oram wrapped everything up nicely. Though I am curious about what happens with Selena and Ben afterwards...Maybe that's a novella for another day?
