James is struggling in his college history class. He decides that seducing his professor might get him a better grade. Unfortunately, Professor Carson doesn’t fall for the seduction. But he does offer to tutor James in more that just school work.

For anyone who enjoyed the first Professor’s Rule book, Giving An Inch, this is the book you were waiting for. This is the backstory of James and Professor Carson. If you haven’t read the first one, worry not- you don’t need to read them in order. In fact, this book actually comes first chronologically. So read them in any order, but read them because they’re both great!

The team of Heidi Belleau and Amelia C. Gormley have put together a great sequel. I only hope that we can expect even more from them in the future.

I know for some the teacher/student relationship is taboo. But it’s a plot line that I enjoy. Are there any taboo storylines that you enjoy?

Hayden and Sierra work at a Las Vegas casino called The Serafina. He is second in command in security and she is head chef at the hotel restaurant. They met there and became friends. Sierra has wanted Hayden since they met but figured he was way out of her league. Not to mention he was way more experienced sexually than her. Sierra is a twenty-two year old virgin. Hayden is thirty-two and an ex-SEAL. Sex has always been easy to find for him but since he met Sierra, he hasn’t slept with anyone. He didn’t want anyone but her.

This worked for me in every way. SEAL? Check. Virginal heroine? Check. Las Vegas? Check. A little suspense thrown in? Check. Low conflict? Check. Hot love scenes? Check. It’s a novella so it is short in length but I loved it. I thought it was sweet and hot. A great start to a new series for Katie Reus and one I will most certainly be reading.

Jordan and Vincent were dating when Jordan witnessed a crime unbeknownst to Vincent. She promptly disappeared from his life, leaving him bitter and heartbroken. Spring forward several years to now and Jordan re-enters Vincent’s life hoping to explain everything. The attraction is still there and very potent.

She ends up needing his protection thereby getting Red Stone Security involved also. This was a very short read but I liked it. I liked it well enough that I’ll be going back to read the whole series. I wasn’t feeling that great while I was reading so it took me longer than it should’ve. I’m a sucker for lost love stories tropes. I also enjoyed the suspense. If you want something short, sweet and hot, give it a try.
