And her first order of business? New guy Will. She can’t get enough of his Midwestern accent and laid-back swagger.As the sparks start to fly, Will wants to get serious. Tia’s seen how caring too much has left her sisters heartbroken, and she isn’t interested in commitment. But pushing Will away drives him into the arms of another girl. Tia tells herself it’s no big deal…until the yearbook elections are announced. Getting voted Biggest Flirts with Will is, well, awkward. They may just be friends, but their chemistry is beginning to jeopardize Will’s new relationship—and causing Tia to reconsider her true feelings. What started as a lighthearted fling is about to get very complicated…

Using one word to sum up my feelings about Biggest Flirts it would be:
SWOON-WORTHY!
See? This is me. Well....not really, it's Rapunzel from Tangled but you get the picture. :)
It's so very rare for me to I come across an extraordinary YA contemporary romance book and love everything about. I almost always find something, however minor that I didn't like about the book. Most times being characters flaws or insta-love. With Biggest Flirts, I found none. I loved every sweet second of this book and here's why.
Biggest Flirts tells the story of two high school teens, Tia and Will. Will is the new kid in school after having recently moved from Minnesota. Tia is a native to sunny Florida. She's a total band geek, with lots of friends, a good sense of humor and a warm heart. By chance, Will and Tia meet at a party and get along right from the start. When things between them begin to heat up they end up finding a bed and getting hot and heavy really soon.
Will wants more...he wants to date Tia and Tia...not so much. Tia doesn't want and boyfriend which yes is kind of odd for a teenage but for good reason. Her sisters have had some very bad luck with men and because of this Tia is scared to get involved with anyone or even allow herself to fall in love.
With both Will and Tia wanting different things they end up developing a friendship but ever as friends they are constantly flirting with each other. When Will decides to date someone else, things start to become much more interesting.
Once Tia and Will are given the school title of BIGGEST FLIRTS things get a lot more complicated. Tia and Will's "friendship" will be tested. Between Will's new jealous girlfriends and Tia's TRUE feeling for Will being named the biggest flirts may be the least of their worries.
Beyond a shadow of a doubt, this book was simply outstanding! Tia and Will were wonderful characters to read about and oh so fun! They both were perfectly crafted to fit into the story. I was washed away by how romantic this story was. The high school setting in the book was so real and grounded. I've never read about characters in a marching band in school but found I extremely enjoyed the this part. Will and Tia both being in the band definitely did most of their flirting there. I also adored the secondary characters in the book. Jennifer really did a fantastic job at defining them as well as Tia and Will.
What I enjoyed most about this book was of course the on and off again romance between Tia and Will. It was so sweet and swoon-worthy. I didn't want the story to end. I WHAT MORE! Please? *gives puppy dog eyes*
*happy sigh*
