The Perfect First by Maya Hughes

4.0

"She'd gotten so fully and completely under my skin, I didn't know how I'd existed before I met her."

Oh, I adored my second read by Maya Hughes. The Perfect First is a beautiful story of an adorable girl which comes across nerdy and queer because of her sheltered and strict upbringing. And about the popular, conceited football player, who learn from each other what life really has to offer them.

"He was equal parts raw masculinity and caring that made me almost come out of my skin. My body was on fire for him and I wanted him to devour me."

This story is full of funny situations and encounter, which made me smile and laugh a lot. The chemistry between Seph and Reece is palpable and gorgeous. They learn so much from each other and about friendship as they open their so very different worlds for each other. I love how attentive Reece is toward Seph, her list of firsts and how he takes her on thoughtful adventures every time they check of one of her list.

""I've been dreaming of you every night, and if I'm still dreaming, I don't want to wake up."

The Perfect First is sugary sweet and full of adventures - the funny ones as well as the steamy ones. A great start to this new series! Can't wait to read more!
