Professor Houston Dale is a nightmare in the classroom. Stern, brooding, and downright intimidating, he makes my life as his assistant a constant battle. He's demanding, his glare enough to make anyone tremble... but it's his presence in my fantasies that truly drives me wild. The things I imagine—things I know are taboo—leave me questioning everything.

I should quit med school. It would be easier to escape the tension, the pull between us. But every time he looks at me, I find myself wondering: Does he like what he sees?

The more time I spend in his world, the harder it becomes to ignore the chemistry crackling between us. As his iron mask begins to slip, I realize lines are being crossed—erased. Secrets are revealed, and I don't know if I'm ready for the man behind the professor.

One thing's for sure—nothing could've prepared me for the storm that is Houston Dale.

A forbidden romance with a dominating professor, a student torn between duty and desire, and a love that pushes every boundary. Will they surrender to their passion, or will the consequences tear them apart?
