Popped: Anthology *multiple authors*

Picking You: T. Ashleigh

Kenneth and the Pixie 

When can you tell if you're in love or crushing on your bff? Well, you could always give your virginity to a tornado Pixie with a chaotic heart of gold? Yep, that will do the trick. This was fun. Cute. And laugh out loud silly.

Cherry Ice: Addison Beck

Levi & Mav

When Levi gets asked out by the college cool guy, he panics. He has no experience. He does the only thing he can think of. He asks his life long best friend Mav to practice with him.

What Levi doesn't realize? This kick starts Mav's feelings. Or, uncovers them, at least. The more alevi and Mav practice, the more the lines get blurred.

These two are totally nerdy, and so so cute.

The New Guy: Nicole Dykes

Fallon and Finley in Kensley

The Jock and the new guy with tattoos and lavender hair, and piercings. The perfect jaded/sunshine story in a small town.

Cherry Picking: Becca Jackson

Noah and Patrick

Noah creates an app in college, the cherry picking app, and basically he provides a service for people who wanna lose their v cards in college. He'd be out on the town anyway, and it lets him help people. He always says he'll quit when he finds the one.

Patrick signs up, but after kissing Noah he realizes that maybe he DOES want it to happen naturally and feel special. 

Surprising no one but themselves, Noah and Patrick spend some time together and they realize they're into each other. And it does happen naturally.

Until we kiss: Loren Leigh

Oh my. Sighs. What a beautiful little short story. Carter and Theo. 

Best friends go on vacation for spring break. We get Theo's POV and the boy is an absolute mess. Messed up from a coming out gone wrong, he went back into the closet.

Now, all he wants to do is get a dick in his mouth. But Carter is acting different. And... could Carter be who Theo was looking for all along.

The writing was beautiful. The characters were crisp and heartbreaking. Loved these two so much!°

Tucson Too Late: Sundae Leighton

Saint and Asher

This was a to be continued!

😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

*Asher is a broody mad sad boy hockey player. Going to Arizona, from Boston, to help his brother, he reconnects with Saint. Saint who was in love with him in high school. 

Saint, who is a lot fitter than Asher remembers.

But there's a lot going on in Asher's head & heart. Saint had been saving everything, even down to his first kiss, for someone who loved him. But that can't be Asher, can it?

Demon in the sheets: Lily Mayne

Andris and Brad

Brad, trying to get over a cheating ex, is encouraged by a coworker to summon a demon to wreak petty revenge. When Brad is dared to do it, he does it, because bro dare code.

Pretty sure Nicky, Brad's witchy coworker, is one of Andris' brothers.

When Brad summons Andris, he makes a mistake with the salt, and Andris is under his own control. They decide to bang like 1000 times.

This was my first Lily Mayne story. It was so cute and really well written. Himbo Brad getting it on with a panties wearing demon was ridiculously charming. I wanna see if her other books are even a little like this.

Always Been Me: Charlie Novak

Teddy and Kent

Best friends who've been dating forever and just didn't realize it.

Rookie Moves: Jodi Oliver

Colby is a hockey superstar. Before being drafted, he decides to go to college for one year. So he can win all the games and punch his v card.

Tyler is in his senior year, and playing his last few games of his hockey career. He's always been out as bi, and he's always looked at Colby, but figured nothing would come of it.

Can Tyler help Colby with his college bucket list hat trick? Win frozen four. Lose his virginity. Get drafted.

Spoiler alert.

He does.

Smoke and holes: Cora Rose

Thad and Rowan

We finally get the explanation about Thad and his weird fascination with the Eifel Tower 😂😂😂😂 this was a seriously funny little one shot. Works best if you read Lily Mayne's shortie from this anthology.

All shook up: Sebastian Sharpe

Oliver and Jack, one a son of the gentry and the other the son of a vicar. Best friends who are ridiculously in love and a father hell bent on keeping them apart.

Years pass, time moving slowly, until a chance meeting in a Vegas wedding chapel with an Elvis impersonator... Oliver and Jack reconnect and find themselves again.

The to do list: Lark Taylor

Archie and Zack - stuck in a brother's best friend/best friend's brother situation. Archie is about to go to Uni and refuses to go a virgin. He has a to-do list! Everything has been checked off but that.

Archie goes to The Closet *yep, that one!* and who does he find there? Yep. Who has been harboring secret no-no feelings for Archie? Yep. You guessed it.

The sin bin: willow thomas

Percy and Dean

Percy goes to The Sin Bin to rid himself of his virginity. Thinking it was a gay pub... it was a sports bar instead. But he takes a chance and chats up the hottie rugby player, and it works!

Dean finds his unicorn, and Percy & Dean get their wedded HEA.
