A jaded professor knows better than to cross the line with his student, but when Sarah walks into his classroom carrying the same weight of pain he sees in his own reflection, his carefully constructed walls begin to crumble. Two years ago he learned the hard way that chasing the forbidden comes with a price, and he's determined not to repeat that mistake—except Sarah makes staying away feel impossible. With sixteen years between them and every reason telling him to keep his distance, he'll have to decide if some lessons are worth learning twice.
