Losing It is the first book in a series by Cora Carmack. The second book, Faking It, is already released. A companion novella, Keeping Her, is due out August 13th and the third book in the series, Finding It, is due out October 1st. 

Warning: This review contains some slight spoilers.

Book Synopsis
The Runaway New York Times and USA Today Bestseller!
Virginity.
Bliss Edwards is about to graduate from college and still has hers. Sick of being the only virgin among her friends, she decides the best way to deal with the problem is to lose it as quickly and simply as possible—a one-night stand. But her plan turns out to be anything but simple when she freaks out and leaves a gorgeous guy alone and naked in her bed with an excuse that no one with half a brain would ever believe.
And as if that weren't embarrassing enough, when she arrives for her first class of her last college semester, she recognizes her new theater professor.
She'd left him naked in her bed about eight hours earlier. . . .

My Review
Bliss is a theater major who is in her last year of college and still has her virginity. She can't think of anything worse than graduating while still being a virgin. Her biggest problem though, she's absolutely terrified of intimacy. Bliss meets Garrick in a bar one night and almost has a one night stand with him, until she chickens out and runs out of her own apartment naked. Come to find out, Garrick is her new theater professor.

The story continues to follow Bliss through her trials and tribulations of juggling an illegal relationship with her professor and dealing with her best friend, Cade, professing his love to her.

Cora Carmack sure knows how to write a hot and spicy book. Garrick is extremely loveable, and you just want him to leave Bliss and ask you out on a date. Bliss and Garrick's chemistry is amazing. They completely understand each other the entire step of the way, and are both willing to try and make the relationship work. Though with Cade being a genuine, good-hearted guy, you feel absolutely horrible for him being in love with someone who is in love with someone else. I felt that he had deeper feelings for Bliss than he let on, but when he told Bliss that he's loved her for years, and Bliss didn't reciprocate his feelings, I felt horrible for him.

After reading this book, you'll feel extremely connected to Bliss and Garrick's relationship and a strong hope for Cade to find someone to pull him out of his slump after his failed attempts of starting his own relationship with Bliss.

I can't wait to continue reading this series. Cora Carmack is a truly talented individual, and I look forward to more from her in the future.
