About this listen
The first novel in the Purple Hearted Series. Zach and Cora’s dual point of view, teacher-student love story.
Turning eighteen sucked! I had to return home to England from the UAE because Dad lost his job; great!
So, I did what any newly turned eighteen-year-old with ID does. I went to the pub. Little did I know, I would meet the most gorgeous man there, and share the most panty-wetting kiss with his perfect god-like face.
He was what all my wet dreams were made of.
But the sexy man, with the perfect tongue that was rammed down my throat, turned out to be my new flipping A-level music teacher–insert, dig a hole and drown myself in it.
So, what do I do now? Do I go all up in his face and lick him a little bit more, or do I pretend it never happened? Decisions, decisions!
P.S. Did I mention he has an accent? I'm always a sucker for an accent!
Blurb!
Whoever said falling in love was easy, lied.
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 like she had ever imagined.
The first love is always the most memorable and this forbidden teacher-student love story will leave you wanting more…

“Frances brings to life the trials and tribulations of falling in love for the first time with a wickedly taunting twist as Cora falls for her teacher. With many raunchy moments and plenty of humour, Frances uses a dual point of view to perfection. We can’t wait for the next instalment.”—HB Publishing House.

I love the author’s sense of humour, her writing always manages to get a smile out of me, and the balance of smut was perfect too, not to much to make it over bearing, but enough so you can feel the chemistry between the characters.
It didn’t take me long at all to fly through this audio book, and I really didn’t expect that ending, the loose ends I wanted tying up too had me a little huffy, until I realised, there’s a second book, hurrah!
A perfect balance of romance, smut and swears!

At last, I've finally managed to pick up the first book in The Purple Hearted Series.
You may remember that I started this series a while back, but completely in the wrong order and although each of the stories featured different characters, I was determined to fill in the blanks and complete the series.
This book sees Cara returning to the UK after taking some time abroad as a family.
Her first night out back home and she meets Zach in the pub and they form an instant connection.
Their story, however, is super complicated for many reasons that I definitely won't go into - to avoid spoilers - but it's quite a sad one and an emotional rollercoaster.
I love how Fleur manages to create characters that I'm not totally sure that I love - again for reasons I can't say - but I still find that I'm rooting for them throughout.
I knew the circumstances and saw their interactions, but I still felt their connection and held out hope.
They were both totally down to earth and relatable and I think this is why it's so easy to connect and immerse myself within their tangled story.
This storyline deals with some real life issues that lots of young adults will relate to and I love that the writing style reflects real life and real situations - unlike some stories where everything is perfect.
Issues in school with bullying and friendships -and within family life with parent and sibling troubles and health as well as open talk about sex and periods all combine to make a really great read.
This again was a super quick read and I devoured it in one sitting.
My only slight negative is that the narration on the audio took a little getting used to - I can't describe what it was - but honestly, stick with it because the story is well worth it!
Super relatable characters and situations
