First Comes Love

First Comes Love by Katie Kavinsky tells the love story of Grey a troubled boy who is happy to stay in the shadow until he meets Dylan a pushy girl who is visiting his town and looking to experience something new.  Grey who at first is irritated by Dylan slowly finds himself caring about her and she help him heal and move on with his life.

I liked this book.  It's a nice contemporary romance that has very real characters who aren't popular or absurdly rich.  The romance is realistic and passionate and I really enjoyed both of the characters come to understand themselves.  I finished the book quickly.

Appropriateness:  This is a book that's written for and about older teens.  Both Grey and Dylan are high school graduates who are taking community college courses and they act their age.  The relationship eventually grows sexual and there are lots of mentions of condoms (yay!).  I would recommend this book to readers 16+
