When Jenny's best friend Sally convinced her to join her at a beach party to celebrate their high school graduation, she didn't expect things to get as crazy as they did. She never thought she'd muster the courage to enter the infamous "Kissing Shack" where random strangers make out in the dark, especially since she'd never been kissed before. By the time she left the shack, she definitely didn't expect to come face-to-face with the one person in the world she shouldn't have been kissing passionately inside that room.

My life was dull, lacking in excitement. All that changed when a group of bikers turned up at the diner where I worked. They were dangerous; a bad influence, and all the hotter for it. I gave them my body to use as they pleased. They changed my life when they took me, one by one, hard and unprotected. And that's not even the best part: the next day they came back for more, and I was eager to give it to them.

I'd never been very career oriented. Never aspired to be anything other than the receptionist who greeted visitors and answered the phone. But when my man, Gary, and I had decided to buy a house and needed to increase our income, I came up with the ultimate plan to earn a raise at the office.

All I want is a night of distractions to take my mind off the stressful business meetings I've had day. At the pub, I quickly spot the perfect counterpart to share tonight with.

When I invited Holly to join me on a visit home from college, I should have expected her to take a liking to the boy I grew up with, Bradley. What I didn't expect was that she guessed I liked him too. In fact he's the first and only guy I ever liked. It was wrong, I knew that, but she encouraged me to at least find out if the feeling was mutual. She developed a cunning plan to find out, without risking embarrassment in case he wasn't interested.

Tonight is the night! I get to go on my first ever date. Sure, Daniel, whom I've been in school with since forever, had to wait until after graduation to finally grow a pair and ask me out, but better late than never! We're going to the movies, and dinner after. I wonder, will my date also lead to my first kiss? The clock soon strikes seven, but Daniel is nowhere to be found.... After starting on such a high note, my hopes for the evening are in tatters. Nothing could possibly console me, except perhaps a confession by the boy I grew up with.

Long ago, way before I even met my man, Gary, I was only just developing into the open-minded, free-spirited woman I am today. Back then, at the tender age of 18, I had saved my body for the right guy. I didn't want a boy, like those in my class; I craved the attention of a real man. The only hitch was my friend, Mary, had also kept herself pure, for the same guy.
