I hear that Summer Sisters by Judy Blume is also like that. My friend was telling me about it and she seemed to like it but I myself never read it.
And...I know this is something of a teen/pre-teen book but there's one called "Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging by Luise Rennison". The name is pretty self explanitory. It's written in a journal-type format though. It might not really be what you're looking for. I never read it either but it's been reccomended to me plenty of times.
Hmm...these books are sort of set in a fantasy world but they have a lot of romance and first-time encounters and passion in them - "Daughter of the Forest" and the rest of the trilogy by Juliet Marillier. I think they're written beautifully but if you don't like fantasy settings and if you really just want a simple coming of age novel, this might not be for you.
Hmm...I know I read tons of books like what you're looking for when I was younger. If only I could remember more of them now.
I'm going to ask my friend and get back to you within a week.
