All Phoebe Berman has ever wanted is a whirlwind romance. And yet, she keeps getting in her own way. She has no idea what has caused her long and messy history of failed dating attempts – the panic attacks, cold sweats and projectile vomiting.
But she does know two things:
1. She’s going to be thirty in a month.
2. She’s still a virgin. This, though, she’s determined to change.
Armed with a romance-novel-inspired to-do list, Phoebe’s giving herself thirty days to lose her virginity. No backing out this time.
She’s even got some promising options lined up: there’s charming new fellow teacher Finn; long-distance texting pen pal Matthew; and, of course, dreamy Jonathan, her long-time best friend and roommate.
With the clock ticking and a checklist as chaotic as her inner monologue, if Phoebe Berman wants to lose it, she might just have to find herself first.
