A teacher, a parent, and a forbidden attraction

Former tennis player Easton Bradbury is working to connect with her students while keeping her own past at a distance. A parent-teacher meeting brings her into contact with Tyler Marek, whose difficulty relating to his teenage son complicates Easton’s first impression of him. Their growing attraction places Easton’s professional role and personal boundaries in tension, while the description hints that her guarded past may become harder to conceal. The novel frames its romance around the imbalance between a teacher and a student’s parent, alongside questions of responsibility, vulnerability, and what Easton is trying to leave behind.

Book overview

A compelling standalone novel from the New York Times bestselling author of the Fall Away series--who never fails to deliver a "powerfully written contemporary love story"(Booklist).

Former tennis player Easton Bradbury is trying to be the best teacher she can be, trying to reach her bored students, trying to forget her past. What brought her to this stage in her life isn't important. She can't let it be. But now one parent-teacher meeting may be her undoing....

Meeting Tyler Marek for the first time makes it easy for Easton to see why his son is having trouble in school. The man knows how to manage businesses and wealth, not a living, breathing teenage boy. Or a young teacher, for that matter, though he tries to. And yet...there is something about him that draws Easton in--a hint of vulnerability, a flash of attraction, a spark that might burn.

Wanting him is taboo. Needing him is undeniable. And his long-awaited touch will weaken Easton's resolve--and reveal what should stay hidden....
