Description
A usually-honest ninth grader fibs about having been kissed then rushes to lock lips with someone before her lie is uncovered in this charming and relatable middle grade rom-com.

Millie hates liars. Ever since her mom lied to their family about the six-month affair she was having, Millie has pledged to always tell the truth, no matter what. But when her classmate Logan asks her--in the middle of study hall with everyone listening--whether she's kissed anyone, she panics. She panics and lies, saying she has.

Afterward, Millie spirals. She hasn't only broken her most important rule, she's done it badly. Millie's sure everyone knows she was fibbing. The only way out is to make reality catch up to her lies by changing her kiss status and getting a boyfriend...as quickly as possible.

But Millie's mission keeps getting foiled by Logan, who suddenly seems to be there at every turn. Millie starts to wonder why Logan cares so much in the first place. Could it be that when he asked about her first kiss, it wasn't to embarrass her at all?
