The Kiss Bet (Apuesta de amor), 2

It's her senior year of high school, and Sara Lin has just turned eighteen. She has great friends, a fantastic dad (or so he thinks), and tons of plans. The last thing she needs is to worry about her first kiss. But that's about to change because her good friend Patrick has challenged her to a bet that could end in love, heartbreak, or embarrassment… or maybe all three. Along the way, Sara will discover that life isn't a fairy tale and that romance can be complicated and confusing, but… it can be a lot of fun! In this second book of the series, Sara has lost every love-related bet she's made with Patrick, but she's determined to make something happen with her crush, Joe, during the upcoming school festival. First, though, she'll have to pass her math exam, which means spending time with her tutor, Oliver, who vividly remembers that "almost kiss" they shared on the subway. And to top it all off, Patrick makes his riskiest bet yet: Sara must kiss someone before the festival ends… or leave the newspaper club. Thus, Sara begins to understand that some things can't be taught and that life has to be lived.
