A Thousand Boy Kisses (A Thousand Boy Kisses, #1) | by Tillie Cole

Rune and Poppy have known one another since they were young children. Their love was destined. They grew up in neighboring homes and life for them seemed to be a perfect love story until Rune's father received a work transfer. 

Rune would have to return to his home in Norway separating them. Rune and Poppy continued their romance long distance until one day Poppy stopped responding to him which in return lead to Rune becoming angry and broken. 

When Rune and his family returned back to Georgia and their old home Rune and Poppy ignore one another until they finally reconnect.

A Thousand Boy Kisses is a cheesy romantic book. I found many parts unrealistic but the intense more real life moments and the story behind a thousand boy kisses makes this read worth it. Expect an emotional punch to the gut.
