A Thousand Boy Kisses is Tillie Cole’s heartbreaking young adult romance about childhood sweethearts Rune and Poppy, whose love is tested by separation, secrets, and life-changing revelations. A beautiful story about cherishing every moment with those you love.
A Thousand Boy Kisses follows Rune Kristiansen and Poppy Litchfield, childhood friends who fall deeply in love. When Rune is forced to return to Norway, their relationship is torn apart. Two years later, he comes back to their small town changed and distant, while Poppy carries a devastating secret that will test their bond forever.
Through raw emotion and tender moments, Tillie Cole crafts a poignant exploration of first love, loss, and the memories that shape us. This is a story about cherishing every kiss, every moment, and every person who touches our hearts.
