Sam drags his thumb across my cheek, triggering a meltdown across the surface of my skin.

I’m not exactly sure what’s happening to me, only that it reminds of having a low-grade fever and riding a rollercoaster, all rolled into one.

But I’m not sick. I might be completely inexperienced, but I know what this feeling is.

It’s longing

AKA lust.

I’m lusting after my best friend, and I have a feeling nothing is ever going to be the same between us again…

Title: Fantastic beginning.
Review: This novella is a great prequel and a fun way to introduce Sam and Jess. Can’t wait for their full story. A V-card Diaries is a fantastic series by Lili Valente. She always writes such wonderful characters and entertaining stories.

Title: Fun teaser while we wait for the rest of the story
Review: This is a teaser lead in to Sparked, the final book in the V Card Diaries series. We get to see the deep long time friendship Sam and Jess have at summer camp when they’re 17. Their last day in their last year of summer camp when they make a sex deal to lose their virginity together at 24, if they are still virgins. As long as you understand that this is not a HEA but just a prequel to Sparked, you’ll enjoy the story. Despite being short, the novella was well written and engaging and it gave me all the feels - I was laughing one moment and my heart hurt a bit the next. I cannot wait to read the continuation of Jess and Sam’s story. It’ll be epic.

Title: The Best Friends Bargain
Review: I loved this story as well as Sam and Jess. They are funny, young, naive, devoted friends and they both have secret feelings for each other they're to afraid to share. I would highly recommend the novella ... Happy Reading!!!

Title: I want more
Review: What a way to end this novella. Its more like a prequel.I need to fund out why Sam disappeared and how their story unfolds. Same sounded like a sweet guy that chickened out at the least minute I need to know why.

Title: Adorable prequel to Sparked!!
Review: The Best Friends (to Lovers) Bargain: A V-Card Diaries novella by Lili Valente is the super adorable prequel to Sparked. Jessica Allison Cho, “a seventeen-year-old who already knows she’ll die a virgin, surrounded by a fleet of sentient robots and five obese cats,” and Sam Salvatore Burgos, “a seventeen-year-old who’s positive he’s already met the love of his life. And that she’s never going to notice him as anything but her best bud. Not unless he does something drastic,” are best friends. They are spending their last summer together at coding camp and decide to make a pact: if they are still virgins at 24 years old, then they would hook up and rid themselves of their V-cards. Will Sam and Jess both make it to their 24th birthdays with their V-cards still intact? Will Sam finally confess his love for his best friend? These questions are answered in the must read Sparked: A V-Card Diaries novel by Lili Valente.

Title: Sweet prequei
Review: This was sweet and a little heartbreaking. Its a slippery slope with best friends. Both scared to make a move for fear of losing their friendship. Yet fear is what keeps them apart.

Title: Playful Introduction
Review: A silly, playful introduction to the main characters of “Sparked” as teens. This is the backstory of how their pact came about. Definitely worth reading before their main novel.

Title:
Review: While I’m waiting for Jess’s book, the 4th installment of the V-Card Diaries series, Lili came like a wrecking ball and delivered this prequel (??) of how Jess and Sam were friends and had developed some lingering feelings toward one another and then suddenly they were out of each other’s life only for him to suddenly show up at her 24th birthday party.At 17 years old, they were both so clumsy, nerds and just the best friends they could be. But instead of shouting their love for one another, they made a pact, on the last day of their summer camp, to lose their virginity together if by the age of 24, they are still holding up to it. And guess what? Sam just show up at her party read to collect. Yummy! I’m so excited to see the rest of their story.

Title:
Review: We are introduced to Sam and Jess. He’s in love with her and it’s the last night of summer camp. He decides he’s going to tell her how he feels after sending her on a treasure hunt of sorts.She kind of wrecks it by being awkward.Then it ends. I’m guessing their real romance story plays out in the next book but this ended weirdly for me.
