When it's lust at first sight...
Simone Austin, a young college professor, is the consummate love by the book woman. She believes she's been destined for marriage and family since she was a girl and doesn't believe in wasting time with a man who is not on that same path. Now, that her career is where she wants it, she is ready for the ultimate commitment even if it means denying one sexy, Chris Alexander.
From the very moment their eyes met, she is deeply attracted to her best student. When Chris makes his feelings for Simone known during a hot steamy interlude in her office, she finds herself drawn to him like a magnet and decides for once to have a sexual affair without any promises of a future. Soon Simone realizes that she has true feelings for him and must decide if he is worth dating, even if he isn't on her desired path to marriage. Is Simone willing to forget her careful approach to love and focus on their tantalizing moments of the here and now?
Excerpt:
I almost screamed and, clasped my hands in front of me trying to hide my surprise and renewed nervousness at his presence. "Are you stalking me?" I asked annoyed though I was anything but.
"You're the one eye stalking me," he said with a slow smile.
I rolled my eyes mad at myself that he caught me staring at him, "Why are you bothering me anyway? You see I'm with someone."
"Whatever... You haven't been able to stop staring at me since I walked in here." Chris taunted. "You weren't even in there long enough to do anything. The moment you got caught watching me, you suddenly had to use the restroom. Stop playing games, you hoped I followed you back here."
"That's not true. You get on my..." My protest was cut off by his tongue. He pushed me back in the restroom roughly, hands already cupping my ass. I kissed him back hungrily wanting him so desperately already weak for him.
"Wait...wait, Chris," I said between kisses giving up the fight. I had become resigned to be his, if only for a moment. "I'm not about to do it in the restroom."
"The way I'm going to make you feel you won't care where we are." He promised as he began to kiss my neck. "I didn't think you could get sexier...this dress..."
"Mm…" I couldn't stop the grin that I did get to look sexy for him. My hands were under his light blue sweater rubbing his muscled back, enjoying his attention to my neck when I thought about Derek waiting for me.
