This summer, working on the sequel to my best-selling thriller will be more challenging than I expected. It has been difficult enough watching Emma grow from a bright-eyed, shy college freshman into the stunning, confident graduate in the English classes I’ve taught over the past four years.

This summer, working on the sequel to my best-selling thriller will be more challenging than I expected. It has been difficult enough watching Emma grow from a bright-eyed, shy college freshman into the stunning, confident graduate in the English classes I’ve taught over the past four years. However, having her just a few feet away in the lake house next to mine will be torturous.
I had hoped my attraction to her would lessen over the years as I maintained a strict teacher-student relationship, making sure that I never gave her the special attention my body craved to offer. But now, with her just a few feet away from me as she relaxes on the dock in a tiny bikini, my professional resolve is weakening.
Emma
My life feels like a disaster. I graduated from college last month only to find myself at a crossroads. When I first started college, I wanted to earn a degree in business and follow my siblings into the family business. However, after spending the last four years enrolling in every English class taught by Professor Ben Simpson, Ive realized that I want to teach English instead of attending boring board meetings.
It doesn’t help that I’m hopelessly in love with Professor Simpson. Not that he returns my feelings. He has been nothing but professional with me all these years. However, now that fate has brought us to the same secluded area, I want to make sure he doesn’t have feelings for me before I decide my future. Because if there’s a chance for a future with Ben, I want it.
Under the sizzling Texas summer sun, Emma plans to fight for the man she loves, willing to brave the heat for his love or get burned by his rejection.
