This is a moving and compelling novel of first love and first heartbreak from a writing genius. The author interweaves so brilliantly themes of sexuality as well as some more outrageous teenage behaviour. It’s definitely more explicit and hard-hitting than other Jacqueline Wilson novels.
Sylvie and Carl have been friends since they were tiny children. They've always played together, eaten with each other's families, called each other boyfriend and girlfriend and deep down, Sylvie has always believed that they'd end up married to each other. But as they become teenagers, things are starting to change.
