Cassandra "Cassie" Economos has a full plate: There's Kurt Cobain, for starters – a permanent fixture on her bedroom wall and in her teenage heart. Then there are her friends. Oh, and let's not forget her big, fat, gloriously dysfunctional Greek family. And simmering beneath it all is a burning desire to escape to Chicago.

But hold on, because Cassie's about to add another item to her ever-growing list: sex. There's just one tiny, insignificant, Mount Everest-sized problem — Cassie is strictly forbidden from dating. Her family, bless their well-meaning, overbearing hearts, has a list of rules longer than a CVS receipt.

But Cassie is determined to break free from the shackles of her family's rules, and, armed with a healthy dose of teenage audacity, embarks on a hilarious and often cringe-worthy journey into the world of dating. Expect awkward encounters, disastrous dates, and enough mortifying moments to make you want to crawl under a rock and never come out.

With a quirky cast of friends cheering her on, ambitious dreams tugging at her heart, and a whirlwind of humorous misadventures to navigate, Cassie grapples with the complexity of desire and identity. Will she be able to balance the expectations of her family while discovering her true self?

So buckle up, grab your headphones, and get ready to laugh, cry, and maybe even cringe a little as Cassie navigates the messy, hilarious, and ultimately unforgettable journey of growing up, falling in love, and finding her place in the world.

Sexual Awakening is the first book in The Rock Star's Wife series, following Cassie through the rollercoaster of life from her awkward teen years to her (hopefully) more sophisticated 40s. With music as a constant backdrop, Cassie will explore the profound connections that shape her life, both romantic and platonic.
