Description



About the Book



College student "Tessa is a good girl with a sweet, reliable boyfriend back home. She's got direction, ambition, and a mother who's intent on keeping her that way. But she's barely moved into her freshman dorm when she runs into Hardin. With his tousled brown hair, cocky British accent, and tattoos, Hardin is cute and different from what she's used to. But he's also rude--to the point of cruelty, even. For all his attitude, Tessa should hate Hardin. And she does--until she finds herself alone with him in his room. Something about his dark mood grabs her, and when they kiss it ignites within her a passion she's never known before"--



Book Synopsis



Experience Anna Todd's million-copy-selling story that started it all, now with exclusive new material and a stunning new cover. Gorgeous sprayed edges complement the cover's stunning cloud design--this LIMITED edition is available while supplies last!

Tessa goes off to college with a dependable boyfriend waiting at home and her life and career neatly planned out. On her first day on campus, everything shifts when she encounters Hardin. With his disheveled brown locks, cocky British charm, and a canvas of tattoos, he's a stark departure from her familiar world.

But Hardin's rudeness borders on cruelty, and Tessa resolves to hate him. At least until they share a charged moment alone--and suddenly, Tessa is questioning everything she's ever known about herself.

Despite his hot-and-cold attitude, Tessa is drawn to uncover the hidden layers within Hardin. In the midst of her newfound independence and electrifying uncertainty, Tessa's connection with Hardin feels like the passionate love she's been looking for. With her carefully laid plans forever disrupted, what comes after?

Be ready to become obsessed!

“This is us, all anger and passion and now love.” Hardin has so many red flags… and yet he stole my heart along with Tessa’s. Tessa is the perfect innocent girl starting college and excited about life. She had a plan and focus, until Hardin shakes it all up. I love that Tessa is inexperienced and experiences all her firsts with Hardin 🥵 “I want to be the one to make you laugh, not cry.” “I don’t think I can handle any more hot and cold from him.” “Loving Hardin is raw and exciting; it sparks my every nerve and I can’t get enough of him.” These two have me obsessed in a way I haven’t been in a book in a while. I will be locking myself away until I finish this storm that is Hessa ‼️ Narrated by Elizabeth Louise who does a great job capturing all of Tessa’s emotions. Hero Fiennes Tiffin jumps in to narrate the final chapter which is the only one in Hardin POV. I loved him as Hardin in the movie and squealed to have this treat of him in the Audiobook!
