“How long do you last in bed?” Those were her first words to me, swiftly followed up with, “And how big would you say you are?”
Persephone Alexander. Math genius. Lover of blazers. The only girl I know who can make Heidi braids look sexy as hell. And she’s on a mission. Lose her virginity by the end of the semester.
I walked in on her interview session for potential candidates (who even does that?) and saw straight through her brave front. She’s got a list of Firsts to accomplish like she’s only got months to live. I’ve decided to be her guide for all her firsts except one. Someone’s got to keep her out of trouble. I have one rule, no sex. We even shook on it.
I’ll help her find the right guy for the job. Someone like her doesn’t need someone like me and my massive…baggage for her first time.
Drinking at a bar. Check.
Partying all night. Double check.
Skinny dipping. Triple check.
She’s unlike anyone I’ve ever met. The walls I’d put up around my heart are slowly crumbling with each touch that sets fire to my soul.
I’m the first to bend the rules. One electrifying kiss changes everything and suddenly I don’t want to be her first, I want to be her only. But her plan was written before I came onto the scene and now I’m determined to get her to re-write her future with me.

The Perfect First by Maya Hughes is a college football friends to lovers romance and the first in The Fulton U series!
I freaking loved the meet cute between Reece and Seph! The moment they met is both awkward and endearing all at the same time. The each of the them were just so baffled adorable. And the way that Reece was instantly protective of her, GAH!
As with most sports romances there isn’t a lot of on the field action, but when there was, it was written very well and with obvious knowledge of football. I loved getting to see Reece’s teammates interactions with him and with Seph on and off the field. I can’t wait to read their stories!
The Perfect First wasn’t all fun and games, it dealt with hard hitting issues, and dysfunctional families. The obstacles this couple had to overcome weren’t contrived, but authentic and issues that I’m sure a lot of couples have struggled with.
The Perfect First is a great to a new series and I can’t wait to see more of these characters on the Fulton U campus!
