A frank, relatable and outrageously funny YA novel full of heart, friendship and the utter chaos of first relationships, perfect for fans of Sex Education, Holly Bourne and Ciara Smyth.

'Wildly entertaining, shame-busting...an empowering novel.' - Inis Magazine, Children's Books Ireland

'Candid, relatable and reassuring. Fans of Holly Bourne - and Netflix's Sex Education - will adore it.' i paper

Sensitive and honest. moving and insightful. An excellent title that deserves promotion.' The School Librarian

'The relationship between Rose and her boyfriend Joel is skilfully done... their struggles feel believable and nuanced.' - The Irish Times

Warning: This book contains frank content of a sexual nature.

When Rose decides to lose her virginity to her gorgeous, sweet boyfriend, Joel, the scene is set for a major milestone. Except, when it comes to it, they can't seem to make it ... happen. Rose's 'epic sex fail' freaks her out. Isn't everyone else having an easy, fun, painless time?!

The problem is, she's already told her best friends she's done it. And, worse still, while Rose unpicks her health issue, her relationship with Joel starts to crack under the pressure.

But it turns out sex is not always straightforward for others either, and Rose soon becomes the accidental confidante of cringe. Maybe bodies and relationships are as weird and unique as we are? And maybe what she really needs to lose is shame?

  • Mean Girls level quotability and a loveable cast of down-to-earth characters reminiscent of Derry Girls and The Inbetweeners.
  • A wildly entertaining, refreshing book with an outrageous sense of humour, a highly relatable story and an empowering take on friendships, teen relationships and personal growth.
  • With her counselling background, debut author Rebecca Anderson embraces vulnerability and opens honest, shame-busting conversations about our bodies, healthy relationships, and awkward or challenging first (and future!) times.
