Summary from Goodreads:
Charlie is down to her absolute. Total. Last. Resort.
Despite a thoroughly comprehensive list of potential cherry poppers, er…suitors, and careful plotting, Charlie is three weeks into her devirginization campaign, still untouched, and getting desperate. In the movie of her life, this aspiring screenwriter is giving herself a PG, for please, get some.
Her project goes into freeze frame when her mom checks herself into rehab and packs Charlie off to live with her estranged, or just plain strange, grandfather, Monty. How is she supposed to get a date when she has to go pick up his Depends?
Enter Eric, a hot rehab grad on the road to redemption, and the only one who can make Charlie rethink her strategy. The more she gets to know him, the more convinced she becomes that is the one, and not just another to add to the list of people who will abandon her.
In this hilarious and heartbreaking story of one girl’s detoured road to womanhood, Charlie’s list develops a life of its own – right when she realizes there’s so much more to lose.

Read an excerpt:
“Here, take this.” Eric thrust the DVD at my chest, his fingers grazing my boob.
He froze. So did I.
We stared at each other for a long moment. I memorized every feature from the dark swath of hair slicing across his forehead, to the intent look in his eyes, and the fullness of his bottom lip. I wanted him. He knew it at the exact second I did; I could tell when his mouth formed a half smile. I wanted to eat that smile right off his face. A few steps and we melted into each other forming an intimate circle of heat.
Shutting out the world.
I lifted my chin, but he angled his face away, still not giving me the kiss I craved.
His breath warmed the air near my temple. Lips feathered my cheek, the sensitive flesh behind my ear. Fine goose bumps erupted along the line of my neck.
Oh, sweet Jesus.
Our lips pressed together once.
We gasped into each other’s mouths.
Twice.
We groaned.
Then we fused feverishly. Again and again, until…
“I can’t do this.” Eric pulled back, sucking in a harsh breath.
