Turning 18, Cora never envisaged her world would fall apart. After an abrupt return to her childhood town, she is thrust back into a life she had so desperately tried to escape. An unexpected meeting, with a handsome stranger, leads to the first kiss of her dreams The attraction is undeniable. As their lives unexpectedly intertwine, it makes her question everything. Cora tries to navigate this romantic twist of fate. Falling in love for the first time, wasn't anything she like she had ever imagined.

The first love is always the most memorable and this forbidden love story will leave you wanting more...

Book 1 of 3. Purple Hearted Series. 

Dual POV. Inner thoughts. Enough Tension to have to put the book down to take a few breathes to then pick it up and STILL be shocked. 

Cora's dad lost her job. Returning home and newly 18 she decided a drink...or maybe a few would be the best solution to fix all her problems. Instead of solving her problems she caused more to herself when she found herself under a gorgeous, godly-sculpted man. They are complete strangers. It's just a one time hook up right? Wrong. He is her A-Level music teacher. That's it. She's screwed. 

How can she face him now? Does she pretend it never happened? 

Tropes: Forbidden Love/ Teacher x Student

The book ends on a cliff-hanger. I am too invested into Cora and Zach's love story. I need the next book. 

I loved the story and I enjoyed the growing romance as well as the tension. I am not a fan of teacher x student tropes, just because I think it is morally wrong. However, knowing this isn't real I enjoyed it as well as seeing the character development throughout the book. 

Character-wise it was very easy to distinguish the likeable characters and the not so likeable ones. However, the story from the beginning was not explained enough. I had to ignore the questions in my head to enjoy the rest of this book. I wish the background was explained better. Saying that, the book did get a whole lot better after. 

Definitely an enjoyable read.
