Her parents. His girlfriend. And the fact that Max hasn't been the same since his dad's stroke. But she can't resist, and when they're caught in the act by her dad, Jill swears it'll never happen again. Because kissing Max Holden is a terrible idea, but a bad thing never tasted so good. With a new baby sibling on the way, her parents fighting all the time, and her dream of culinary school suddenly up in the air, Jillian starts spending more and more time with Max. And even though her father disapproves and Max still has a girlfriend, not kissing Max is easier said than done. Will Jill follow her heart, and allow their friendship to blossom into something more, or will she listen to her head and stop kissing Max Holden once and for all
