Publisher's summary

Eighteen is hard. And so is Mateo Alesci. Hard to read, hard to predict, hard in every way that counts.

He wants things from me. Dirty things, nasty things, forbidden things. And I have to give in. His attention is completely inappropriate, but I can't say no. The way he looks at me...the way he watches me through my bedroom window...the way he drags me deeper and deeper into his completely forbidden fantasy just...turns me on. He knows it turns me on. He holds all the power. He holds all the cards. He holds my entire future in his hands.

And I have to give in. Because Mr. Alesci is my teacher. And I need everything he's offering.

18 HOT Star’s

There have been a hand full of books I wished I could give more than a 5 star rating. This is one of them so I give it 18 Star’s yep. This book blew my mind, in the most delicious of ways.

Shannon, needs credits to graduate. You have to wonder what the hell is going on in the school system for them to miss she needed some important credits. Even if she technically had more then they needed over all.
So back to school for more credits! And this is where her life is never going to be the same again.

Enter HOT AF Teacher.. Mr. Alesci, aka Mateo. In my head I call him Mr. Hottie. What I can’t help it. The first few chapters you are going to be sucked in to this mysterious yummy man.
The heat these two generate leaps in to your ears and sinks in to your brain.

There are parts of Shannon’s life I wish I could kick for her.. Like her brother in-law. But I don’t want to get into all that, you need to experience that yourself and come up with your own opinions. Her niece though to cute.

Back to Mr. Hottie did I mention he lives’ across the street from her? I didn’t well think of the possibilities this holds, and he like to bring out her naughty girl side. So let’s just take a sec and fan our self.. .HOT, HOT, HOT.. HOOOOTTT.

‘But I smile. Even though he creeps me out, he does it in all the right ways.’
‘I’ll probably regret that soon. I usually do.’ – Shannon

Yeah these little tid bits have stuck with me, so I had to share.
Worth the credit HECK yes!

I loved Ava Erickson performance so hard in this book. There isn’t one thing I wished was different. Defiantly a narrator I will buy from again.

*All my Reviews are 100% honest and my own.*

JA Huss is on point!

Yet another slam audio-dunk for JA Huss. A teacher/student story that was so gripping and enthralling, I had to stay up late just to finish. The story never slowed, the pace was absolutely perfect.

Ava Erickson was a fantastic narrator in this book, she was able to pull off the male character voices and have a different tone for each person.

Another hot & steamy book by JA Huss

Wow, another crazy JA Huss story. A hot & steamy teacher-student romance. The steaminess comes quickly in this book, just the way I like it! Mateo & Shannon left me wanting more. You definitely need to read/listen to this book. Excellent narration by Ava Erickson!

Fabulous story.

This story was engaging from begin to end. I was the good kid who did not get into trouble but I knew people like the characters in this book. This story speaks to me, I have already read/listen to this one several times now. Julie is such a good story teller.

Love, love, love!

I loved the book and I loved the audio even more. Sizzling hot!

Matteo could make me drop my panties with just a look. Damn, the man speaks his mind with all things sex. He's a "tad bit" misguided but he truly cares about her.

Life is not easy for her and she definitely wants easy. Life has dealt her a number of blows in the past year but her youthful ignorance and angst add to the problems. Matteo is a problem (or answer) she is trying to figure out; all the while enjoying the hot as hell sex and his companionship. Her whole world continues to fall apart and then she learns the truth about Matteo.

Their's is a completely taboo relationship, but for the reader it is a ride you cannot miss!

I adore this reader. She makes the story even hotter, more angsty, and draws you in completely.

OMG

This is one of the best JA Huss I've read. The story is emotional and also witty. Shannon is not a victim which makes me so happy. She doesn't whine. Matteo is a mistery and I whish we knew a bit more of him. Narrator is superb.

A new fav!!

This book “18,” What can I say? Eighteen, is rough, and J.A. Huss, has a habit of creating such a real, raw, and relatable experience for almost all of us. 😀Trust me she doesn’t disappoint here. Yeah, maybe your life wasn’t quite this exciting at 18, but hey it is a story so of course she embellished some, which she explains in her “Book shit,”(aka, Explanation of the Book,) at the end of all of her stories. I find them enlightening when I love a book and helpful when I’m disturbed or not as taken by a story.

This story, “18,” I loved. 💕❤️Without spoiling the story I can tell you the heroine Shannon was a deeply complex, and lonely teen, who was trying to figure out her next move in life after finishing high school and losing the people that she loved most in her life.😞👏🏾Her teacher the hero Mateo, or is he, is a little bit of a pervert, who has his own secrets, but is a grown ass man who knows what he wants and goes after it no matter what the consequences. Once these two come together, the chemistry is undeniable and it starts up a hot and steamy situation that is hard to deny. Not only can they not resist each other but he wants to protect and take care of her. 😘😀👌🏾The only question is will she be able to trust him enough and let her pride step aside long enough for her to let him in past the physical side of things. 🤔🤔

This is a standalone book and it will also be added to my favorites list. Why do I say that? Well that means its a book that’s so good I can see me reading it more than once. It has to be pretty hot and interesting for me to read it more than once. Or rather listen to it since I love audiobooks, also the narration on this was phenominal!👍🏾😀

Great Taboo Listen!

18 is one of my favorite JA Huss standalone novel’s, a taboo student/teacher romance with a twist, loved Ava Erickson’s narration.

Such a hot read 🔥

Loved this book! :) would definitely recommend to anyone that loves romance and erotica! Will listen many more times!

Good read

Good book for older teens. I would recommend this book to my girls. I had a to much fun in high school and wished I had a mentor like she did.
