Loved！！！

se。 Sex。 SEX。 This book has steamy scenes that keep you turning pages。 If you want to feel hot & aroused， this would be a great choice。 It wasn’t the book for me because their relationship felt too shallow and fast。 The main character basically said she was in love with this casual stranger after a few days and I just rolled my eyes。 Ends on a cliffhanger。 If erotica is your choice of the day， I’d highly recommend this one。

Ok this book is smoking like trying to be fifty shades or crossfire series hot。 I did enjoy reading this fast fun book but also had some issues。 Short summary: Penny is 19 and entering her second year of college when she runs into， literally， this hot dude who spills her coffee all over her。 They have an instant connection。 The next day she goes to her first class and he’s her professor！ They try and deny their attraction but it keeps growing。 Eventually it is too much and they give in and start Ok this book is smoking like trying to be fifty shades or crossfire series hot。 I did enjoy reading this fast fun book but also had some issues。 Short summary: Penny is 19 and entering her second year of college when she runs into， literally， this hot dude who spills her coffee all over her。 They have an instant connection。 The next day she goes to her first class and he’s her professor！ They try and deny their attraction but it keeps growing。 Eventually it is too much and they give in and start seeing each other。 The forbidden romance trope was fun as always with an unhealthy relationship as they are both keeping so many secrets。 Penny however is immature a lot and I hope she grows as the books go along。 Her roommate Melissa is awful。 I just wanted to slap her！ My biggest issue was Tyler。 He and Penny get drunk at a party and he tries to have sex with her not listening to her no。 She knees him and rain away。 Later they become friends， almost date， kiss and few times， hook up once， and then they go separate ways。 Like no just no！Staci McIntyre 。。。more

WowzerWell， my， my my， can you say STEAMY？ I loved this book， so full of angst， feels and life struggles for college students， makes me feel as though I am right there every step of the way。 Next！

This book was terrible。 There’s isn’t enough space for me to say how horrible I thought the characters and story line are。 But here’s a snippet。 Penny is a stupid， immature， annoying， lying， pathetic， deceitful brat。 Every single aspect of this book so out of bounds and awkward， like the author just couldn’t focus and write a sold main character。

Could not put it down！ And if I didn’t have kids I’d finish it in a few hours！ Uh the steam left me drooling， the passion left me wanting， and the danger of it all was too hot to touch！ Professor hunter is a man I am still wondering about。 So many questions。 Though he answers every one asked I still feel like I know nothing about him。Penny is surely in over her head…。One flaw- I DOnt believe age matters much so when that’s the con of the relationship I get annoyed and bored。 But overall I’m dyin Could not put it down！ And if I didn’t have kids I’d finish it in a few hours！ Uh the steam left me drooling， the passion left me wanting， and the danger of it all was too hot to touch！ Professor hunter is a man I am still wondering about。 So many questions。 Though he answers every one asked I still feel like I know nothing about him。Penny is surely in over her head…。One flaw- I DOnt believe age matters much so when that’s the con of the relationship I get annoyed and bored。 But overall I’m dying to buy book 2。 。。。more

July 2021 Book Club Book。 We have a rule that when we choose a book you need to try and finish it， no matter what。O boy， was it hard not to DNF this。“He was wearing black square rimmed glasses” Uhm…This book is just really bad on so many levels。 I’m warning you to never start a drinking game for everytime you read “Professor”。

Aly ，

Great readIt was a captivating read。 Good story and plot。 I loved the book。 Can’t wait to read the next one。

Stephanie Stroup ，

AMAZING This was such a good read！ I cannot wait to dive eyes first into the next one！ Great job， phenomenal！

Saphire Aqua ，

Exactly what I signed up for and then some。 Hard to connect to most characters though， probably just me however。

Enjoyed this bookTotally enjoying reading this book， finding it hard to understand how it works 。 But getting there。Professor Hunter sounds so hot

Having loved Empire High which was basically Matt & Brooklyn's story it's nice to catch up with adult James。 He's certainly come a long way from his high school days。 Although in the last E H book we were introduced to adult James & his wife Penny it's lovely to read the missing years & see how they met & their story as a whole develops。 So far I'm not the emotional wreck I was throughout Empire High but I'm still hooked on the characters。 This book is smoking & the sexual chemistry between Jame Having loved Empire High which was basically Matt & Brooklyn's story it's nice to catch up with adult James。 He's certainly come a long way from his high school days。 Although in the last E H book we were introduced to adult James & his wife Penny it's lovely to read the missing years & see how they met & their story as a whole develops。 So far I'm not the emotional wreck I was throughout Empire High but I'm still hooked on the characters。 This book is smoking & the sexual chemistry between James & Penny is palpable。 。。。more

Courtney ，

very good。 totally makes me wish i was still in college， haha。 a few things did bother me - like how often they say each other's name。 my gawd。 i don't think i ever say my best friend's name unless i'm telling someone else about her - the fact that these two lived together & said eachother's name at the beginning or end of every sentence was incredibly annoying。 but this was a fast read; i couldn't put it down。 excited to keep reading the rest of the series！ very good。 totally makes me wish i was still in college， haha。 a few things did bother me - like how often they say each other's name。 my gawd。 i don't think i ever say my best friend's name unless i'm telling someone else about her - the fact that these two lived together & said eachother's name at the beginning or end of every sentence was incredibly annoying。 but this was a fast read; i couldn't put it down。 excited to keep reading the rest of the series！ 。。。more

Since I needed 3 days to read it， it means - nothing special。 I have 3 more to go。。 it will take some time it seems 。。。

Ok everyone recommended me this series and I finally dived in。 3 chapters in and I was ok the roommate is manipulative and super controlling but ok because the H was hot af。 Futher along the way the heroine gets on my damn nerves。 She annoys the crap outta me man。 I mean， you're supposed to hide you're fucking your professor and the minute roommate asked her who he mystery man was she described everything abt him。 That was it！ Ugh！ Ok everyone recommended me this series and I finally dived in。 3 chapters in and I was ok the roommate is manipulative and super controlling but ok because the H was hot af。 Futher along the way the heroine gets on my damn nerves。 She annoys the crap outta me man。 I mean， you're supposed to hide you're fucking your professor and the minute roommate asked her who he mystery man was she described everything abt him。 That was it！ Ugh！ 。。。more

Christina Marie ，

This was so hard to finish。 It was just… so basic。 Nothing made sense for me — in terms of why a 20 year old would act the way that she did。 And she was just incredibly frustrating to the point of disbelief。 I simply didn’t connect with this boom at all。 Which tells me that this series just isn’t for me。

TemptationThis book was okay， I feel some parts were rushed more than others and that Penny was very quick to forgive and move along as well as Professor Hunter。

Lacey Herbert ，

Love this book。 Great Hero alpha with alittle darkness and mystery to his persona。 Herione younger and still finding her place in the world。 Other characters are fun to get to know and have place in other books of thier own which are fun to read and discover thier happily after also。

My pet hate is books which don't really conclude much instead just expect you read the rest of the series， which in this case is not worth it。 Storyline is a pretty standard rom-com women meets man style， they fall out then get together again。 This is dragged out over 100pages with not many highlights。 My pet hate is books which don't really conclude much instead just expect you read the rest of the series， which in this case is not worth it。 Storyline is a pretty standard rom-com women meets man style， they fall out then get together again。 This is dragged out over 100pages with not many highlights。 。。。more

I've heard a lot of good things about Ivy Smoak's books （she's been on my tbr for a while）， and Iwanted to read all of them， so I decided to start the first one， but it just wasn't good。 I didn't connect with the writing at all， and I thought was boring。 I'll try again with some of her new stuff and see what I think this one just wasn't for me。 I've heard a lot of good things about Ivy Smoak's books （she's been on my tbr for a while）， and Iwanted to read all of them， so I decided to start the first one， but it just wasn't good。 I didn't connect with the writing at all， and I thought was boring。 I'll try again with some of her new stuff and see what I think this one just wasn't for me。 。。。more

DNF - i swear to god， if i had to read penny say “professor” one more time i was gonna off myself。 this had so much potential but PENNY was SO ANNOYING。 first of all i hated that name more than any name and i didn’t know that till this book。 and second of all you can’t make penny jokes about your OWN NAME。 gross
