i’d rate this book a good 3.75
It wasn’t anything special in regards to the main plot, but it was still a good and fun book that i enjoyed! I LOVE the concept of Seph posting the ad, and her bluntness with everything was hilarious. It was a proper fun and enjoyable time reading this book! I’ll definitely be reading the others in the series!

A gem of a book
The Perfect First [#1] is a New Adult that takes readers on a journey of how Reece helps Persephone live her life to the fullest regardless of what people say; enjoy all those things that Seph had missed out on in her past eighteen years of existence.
It was very beautiful to read, and author literally created magic in this book. I swear I didn't put this down, not even once, until I finished the very last page and smiled goofily.
It felt so wonderful to see how much Seph changed throughout the book. She grew out of her awkwardness and grew more confident in herself. And Reece was there for her every step of the way.
He too had his own troubles which made him nervous and feel unworthy. He felt that it was safe to avoid anything that sidetracked him from his goals. But it all sorted out in the end.
“I’m scared too, Wild Child, but with your brains and my athleticism, we can outsmart or outrun any problem we come up against.”
The book made me chuckle and smile to myself, and the credit for that goes to Reece's friends including Berk, LJ, Nix and Keyton. They're all so precious!
The ending was satisfactory but I wanted more. I wanted an epilogue

This book was bloody lovely! I love a well done friends to lovers romance and the way this was set up really worked for me!
The only thing that stopped it being 5 stars is that I think it went on about 30% more than it needed to. The last part of the book was a little waffly but still fluffy and fun

2 dimensional characters. Trigger warning for abusive parents. Could have been executed so much better.

I had such a fun time reading this book, it had been a while since I was so engrossed in a read!!
I completely fell in love with Reece and Seph, as individuals and as a couple.

Cougar alert! No cougars were harmed in this book but I may have teared up
Lol! I will 110% admit that this cover stopped me in my tracks. I added this book to my TBR before Goodreads even loaded the blurb. I have zero shame in admitting that. I am happy to admit that not only does the cover cause skipped heart beats but wow what a story!
Anyone with a pulse and a romantic streak will be head over heels for these two. If you are a closeted nerd like myself, this is your Cinderella story! If you like hot jocks with protective streaks...sigh. If you love, live, and exist for friends to lovers stories...you may die in peace after devouring The Perfect First. Just before you expire- in your blissful existence, know that this is just the beginning for this series. You may need more stories for your final resting place. Just a heads up!
I plan on enrolling at FU as soon as I find the address to send my transcript!
