Nine years isn’t that big of an age gap…unless you’re grading her papers.
Tally’s semester checklist:
✓ Finish thesis
✓ Graduate (finally!)
✓ Figure out why my boyfriend of four years suddenly feels like the wrong puzzle piece
✗ Do not fall for Professor Dupree
Too bad my heart didn’t get the memo about that last one.
When my handsome thesis advisor suddenly bows out, I’m devastated.
My friends are right: these messy, intense feelings are not for my boyfriend of the past four years.
And I’m in major trouble.
Professor Dupree’s Professional Checklist:
✓ Grade midterms
✗ Stop noticing how beautiful your student is
✗ Maintain professional distance
✗ Do NOT become her best friend
✓ If all else fails, resign as thesis advisor
Good men don’t fall for students.
But apparently, I’m not the golden boy our small town thinks I am, because that’s exactly what I did.
I planned to wait until after her graduation to tell Tally how I felt.
Then she told me I was her person and everything changed.
Now, I have to figure out how to turn forbidden romance into a happily ever after. Because letting Tally go?
That’s not an option. Not anymore…
