Als Fiona die Außenseiterin Trixie kennenlernt, ist sie sofort von ihr fasziniert: immer mit neuen Haarfarben, neuen Outfits, neuen Ideen. Fiona verbringt ihre Zeit fast nur noch mit Trixie und ordnet sich ihr vollkommen unter. Dennoch hat sie das ungute Gefühl, nie ganz schlau aus ihr zu werden.  Und Fiona hat noch ein anderes Problem: Sie ist unsterblich in Beau verliebt – obwohl dieser sich vollkommen zurückgezogen hat, seit sein Bruder Toby vor einem Jahr auf mysteriöse Weise verschwunden ist und für tot erklärt wurde.  Gefangen im Netz der Intrigen: Was ist Wahrheit – was ist Lüge? Dann verschwindet eines Nachts auch Trixie. Es gibt einen angeblichen Zeugen, der gesehen hat, wie sie ins Meer gegangen ist, immer tiefer, und ihr Tod wird als Selbstmord deklariert. Fiona kann das nicht glauben. Sind Trixie und Toby vielleicht beide noch am Leben und irgendwo zusammen? Und welche Rolle spielt Trixies Ex-Freund, der geheimnisvolle Jasper? Fiona fängt an nachzuforschen – und deckt nach und nach eine Lüge nach der anderen auf … Wem kann sie überhaupt noch trauen? Wer ist tot – und wer lebt?  »Ein Page-Turner voller Liebe und Leidenschaft« ― Kirkus »Dieses Buch macht süchtig!« Bookmark Lit

Seventeen-year-old Mercedes Ayres has an open-door policy when it comes to her bedroom, but only if the guy fulfills a specific criteria: he has to be a virgin. Mercedes lets the boys get their awkward, fumbling first times over with, and all she asks in return is that they give their girlfriends the perfect first time- the kind Mercedes never had herself. Keeping what goes on in her bedroom a secret has been easy- so far. Her absentee mother isn’t home nearly enough to know about Mercedes’ extracurricular activities, and her uber-religious best friend, Angela, won’t even say the word “sex” until she gets married. But Mercedes doesn’t bank on Angela’s boyfriend finding out about her services and wanting a turn- or on Zach, who likes her for who she is instead of what she can do in bed. When Mercedes’ perfect system falls apart, she has to find a way to salvage her reputation and figure out where her heart really belongs in the process. Funny, smart, and true-to-life, FIRSTS is a one-of-a-kind young adult novel about growing up.
