April was cute for a 13-year-old, but she was going for 'sexy' more than 'cute.' April Schweitzer and Mitch Hudgins are high school lovebirds who are crazy for each other. Their love is filled with a never-ending desire and undeniable sexual chemistry. However, their love story isn’t your regular high school tale from the '80s. With both of them deciding to attend different schools, there was no option but to reconsider their relationship and perhaps break up. Given their sexual tension and chemistry, there was no way they could live apart for long. April and Mitch get back together only to break up again, and the cycle repeats itself quite a few times. Will these two finally get a grip of themselves and choose love over hardships and struggles? With April’s unstable family, this relationship could be the only good thing in her life  —that and her best friend, Cassie.    

This story is filled with raw teenage emotions as the protagonist discovers love and her strong, overpowering sexual desires. April's Heart by Shilah Ferr takes readers back to a simpler time and the journey of Mitch and April’s love will keep readers guessing, wondering what’s next for the two love-struck youngsters. The playlist throughout the book sets the mood, helping readers reminisce about their own carefree days of youth. Everything from the writing style to the story itself will have readers wanting to learn more about the characters.

Shilah Ferr, although a first-time writer, deftly portrays the lives of teenagers as realistically as possible. Her book will prove to be a memorable one for younger and older audiences. The romance novel is a must-read for those looking to enjoy fun, simpler times. The prose is dazzling, the characters emotionally and psychologically rich, and the plot expertly handled.
