From New York Times, USA TODAY, Amazon Top-15 & #1 Erotica bestselling author Marata Eros.
She’s forty. They’re twenty-something. She’s the professor. They lock the door.
Dara Nichols teaches English Lit by day, maintaining the boundaries expected of a woman who should know better.
Then three of her most persistent adult students stay after class.
What begins as temptation quickly becomes something Dara never expected: a chance to stop being the responsible one, surrender control, and discover exactly what happens when the lesson flips.
She knows she should leave.
She stays anyway.
