Kitt Kelleher

This Time, Last Year Kitt Kelleher

Kay has a new look and a new mission: to finally get a boy to notice her. Her typical, thirteen-year-old life revolves around her friends, skating, and babysitting on weekends; until she crosses paths with sixteen-year-old Jamie Barnett - a cute jock who drives a wicked, cool Mustang. Everything happens so fast: Kay's first crush, first date, first kiss, and her first hospital visit. She used to dream about the boy-girl stuff that her more-experienced friend, Lisa, would talk about. Now, she's actually living it! Even her best friend, Jules, doesn't know everything that's going on in her life. But one night, it all changes. Kay loses her innocence at a time when her world turns upside down. Kids aren't supposed to...she thinks. But things happen for a reason, at least that's what Kay's mom always tells her.
