Synopsis: As if being a purrfect cheerleader isn’t enough responsibility! Tessa Crimson’s the sweet and spunky leader of the SOS (Society of Smitten Kittens), a cheer squad–turned–spy society dedicated to bringing dastardly boyfriends to justice, one cheater at a time. Boyfriend-busting wouldn’t be so bad . . . except that so far, every suspect on the Naughty List has been proven 100% guilty!
When Tessa’s own boyfriend shows up on the List, she turns her sleuthing skills on him. Is Aiden just as naughty as all the rest, or will Tessa’s sneaky ways end in catastrophe?
The Naughty List. Is your boyfriend on it?

My Review: I thought this book was extremely cute. The "perfect" relathionship between Tessa and Aiden was fun to watch even through the tough points. I liked how this book happened to truly show how the guilt of lying was eating away at Tessa, and liked the premise of the girls supporting each other with this Society of Smitten Kittens. A quick and fresh read, I would definately recommend it to others.

Now for my little rant about this book.. I didn't like the fact that the book was actively approving sexual relations, such as her parents knowing they were doing that stuff, and cassandra saying she had just had sex for the first time with her bf, and a form of birth control wasn't discussed even once.. I at one point thought that the end of the book was gonna be finding out Tessa was pregnant or something.. However, it was not.

the sex stuff doesnt bother me, but just once it would be good to see consequences...
