Kissing Lessons by Sophie Jordan
Expected publication: June 23rd 2020
Synopsis (via Goodreads): A steamy contemporary YA romance by New York Times best-selling author Sophie Jordan about a girl with a bad reputation giving lessons on how to attract guys for some extra cash—only to fall for her client’s golden-boy brother. For fans of Kami Garcia, Katie McGarry, and Netflix’s Sex Education.
Wild, beautiful, and (as rumor has it) experienced, Hayden Vargas doesn’t have time for love or relationships. She’s learned the hard way that the only person you can count on is yourself, and she’s hell-bent on earning enough money to leave her small, judgy Texas town as fast as possible. So when nerdy Emmaline Martin offers to pay Hayden for lessons in seduction, the money is so easy, there must be a catch. Enter the catch: Emmaline’s older brother, popular, all-around nice guy™ Nolan Martin, who doesn’t want his sister’s reputation tarnished by the school’s resident bad girl.
But Hayden should know that looks can be deceiving. Nolan may seem like a golden boy, but like Hayden, he has a few secrets of his own. And the more he meddles in her lessons with Emmaline, the more these polar opposites clash—and the more sparks fly. Turns out Nolan may have some lessons to teach Hayden, but only if she’s willing to learn.

I was a black sheep and loved Jordan's last book. I am excited to read her latest release in hopes I like it as much as her previous book.
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've ever read a book by Sophie Jordan, but I know I have several on my TBR! I'm pretty sure I own Firelight! :) The synopsis for this one does sound really good.
DeleteKissing Lessons sounds like an interesting read, thanks for bringing it to my attention!
ReplyDeleteHave you read any of Jordan's other books? :)
DeleteKissing Lessons looks really good. I love that both you and your husband enjoy comic books. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteHe reads some of the ones from my list, but I don't read any of the ones listed solely in his. ;) I don't like some of the darker stories, especially when they get really violent. I want happy, uplifting comics. <3
DeleteI haven't heard of Folklords but it looks gorgeous! I'm definitely going to have to look into that!
ReplyDeleteIt's a really interesting concept, and a darker spin on some older tales (like Hansel and Gretel). I've enjoyed the story so far! :)
DeleteI've never read anything by Sophie Jordan but this one sounds really good. I also like the comparison to Katie McGarry who I really like.
ReplyDeleteLove McGarry! I haven't read anything by Jordan either, although I have met her at an event and own one of her books (I checked after responding to Sam's comment, haha). Hopefully this one is as good as it sounds! <3
DeleteSome amazing covers this week! Loving the look of Folklords, Dark crystal and Stranger Things. And Jessica Jones Blind Spot is definitely on my list to read now!
ReplyDeleteYes! You have to read JJ so we can talk about how amazing is! Especially her scene with Elsa. <3
DeleteJust wanted to say hi and that I hope you are staying safe right now. Take care!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm physically safe, but I'm not sure about the state of my sanity. ;)
DeleteI’ve never read anything by Sophie Jordan but that little mention of “for fans of Katie McGarry” has definitely caught my eye!
ReplyDeleteI think they knew what they were doing when they linked this book to Katie McGarry, haha! I love McGarry's work, and have been meaning to read something by Jordan for awhile now.
DeleteKissing Lessons sounds adorable. Me wants it.

I love how bright and florescent the cover is! :)
DeleteCute - I have liked some of her books in the past and definitely in the mood for light books these days!
ReplyDeleteWhich of her books have you read? Did you like them? I know she's written quite a few things, and have a copy of Firelight sitting on my shelves. I guess I should start there? ;)
DeleteOoohhh. This is my first time hearing about Kissing Lessons, but I AM intrigued! Thank you for sharing! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm always happy to feed people's TBR Monsters. ;)
DeleteHoopla just added a ton of new sequential art books and I want to read so many of them, but I have to keep them to classics adaptations and Historical Fiction because of my Year of Classics challenge. I hope they still have them next year when I can read them! ๐ฏ
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you can stick to a single challenge for an entire year! I'm a big mood reader, so my preferences change often. :)
