Just One Kiss

What Just One Kiss is about

Adapted from the first book in Emily Jean's Wattpad series, Just One Kiss follows Farrah Blake, a high school senior hoping for romance before summer. Her friends are pairing off, classmates mock her as the "Virgin Mary," and the boy she has loved for years is Ethan Sinclair, her childhood best friend and the school's most wanted guy. His overprotective mother, Sheryl, is one more reason Farrah tells herself he's out of reach.

Expect a sweet, angsty teen romance built on hidden feelings and a best friend whose playful, supportive flirting makes her crush hard to hide. Things get complicated when Ethan picks out another boy he thinks is perfect for her, and glamorous Gia treats Farrah as a rival. Scenes with a boy named Connor at the pool turn uncomfortable and threatening.

Who it's for

Official synopsis

Just One Kiss is based on the first installment of Emily Jean’s Wattpad novel series. Farrah Blake is a senior high school student who hopes to experience romance before summer arrives. Her friends are already dating people they like, while Farrah feels as though she has been left behind. To make matters worse, her classmates mock her by calling her the Virgin Mary. Farrah has had feelings for her childhood best friend, Ethan Sinclair, for years. She often imagines sharing her Just One Kiss moment with the boy everyone at school wants. Unfortunately, Ethan’s overprotective mother, Sheryl, stands in the way. Farrah knows she isn’t supposed to fall in love with him, so she tries to convince herself that Ethan isn’t her type.
