So this is what it feels like to have a boyfriend who adores you. I love it. I never knew it could feel this wonderful. Don't ever end, sweet night. Don't stop driving. Don't stop the music. Don't stop being my boyfriend.

Genre: Realistic Fiction

Summary: Todd or Rick? That's the choice. Or is there a choice at all? Rick wants to be her boyfriend, has waited until she turned 16, has a whole bunch of dates planned out for the two of them. Todd wants to run off to Hawaii. Her friends assure her that dating Rick is the right choice, but Christy's heart isn't completely sure. Rick makes me feel good, she likes the attention, but she's just not sure.
Notes: Christy learns some valuable lessons about dating and about growing up in general in this book.
