Goodreads Summary:

Virginity.

Bliss Edwards is about to graduate from college and still has hers. Sick of being the only virgin among her friends, she decides the best way to deal with the problem is to lose it as quickly and simply as possible-- a one-night stand. But her plan turns out to be anything but simple when she freaks out and leaves a gorgeous guy alone and naked in her bed with an excuse that no one with half-a-brain would ever believe. And as if if that weren't embarrassing enough, when she arrives for her first class of her last college semester, she recognizes her new theatre professor. She'd left him naked in her bed about 8 hours earlier.

What Made Me Swoon:

*I couldn't just pick one Swoon, because the whole story was one large Swoon

"For once in my life I concentrated simply on the feel of a guy against me, the brush of his tongue against mine, the pinpricks of heat where his fingers pressed into my skin.  I didn't think about anything-not about my breath, or whether my hands were in the right place, or what he was expecting.  I lost myself in him." (Nook, 21)


"My toes barely brushed the floor, but it didn't matter.  He was holding me up.  I buried my hands into his messy locks, and threw myself into the kiss.  He took a few steps backward, and sat on the edge of my bed.  On instinct, my legs went on either side of his lap, straddling him.  The hand that had been around my waist curved around my butt and pulled me against him." (Nook, 23)
