About this listen

Only once in my life have I lost my words at the sight of perfection - on a rainy autumn morning when I first met James Hunter. Or rather, when I literally ran into him. I had never seen anyone so handsome in my entire life. The stubble along his jaw line. The way he caught me in his strong arms. The way he stared at me so intently with his dark brown eyes that swirled with secrets.

I felt it in a rush. That I wanted him. That I needed him in my life. I’m not naïve. I could tell in two seconds that he was out of my league. And not just because it looked like he had stepped out of the pages of a magazine. Well, that and the fact that he’s my professor.

Trust me, I know I need to forget about him. But how could I possibly when every time I see him in class it feels like he’s daring me to cross the line?

*I don’t know how much longer I can resist the temptation.*

I did enjoy the writing style. however, I found the story extremely predictable. to the point were I'm reluctant to read the others. I think I'll read some of Ivy Smoaks other works first.

not bad. not great

absolutely loved this book ,start of a series following penny and James love story. at times you wanted to throttle penny for being so immature but we'll worth following the story to completion.

another great story from ivy

Struggled with how young the narrator sounds and there's very little difference interpreting the voice of the male characters

Good story, struggled with narrator

As a huge 50 shades fan I thought I’d give this a go. However I found the story to be pretty mediocre and Penny herself very annoying. The girl who reads the book also sounds like she has a cold and read the book in a constant drone which grated on me a bit. I managed to finish but it was really cringe in places. I won’t be continuing with the sequels :(

Cringeworthy

Penny is incredibly immature, hypocritical and annoying. I fail to see the attraction. The premise of student and hot professor is a good one, but this book wasn’t for me. She is far too whiney. I won’t be continuing the series, maybe a younger audience would find it more appealing.

Immature
