After a particularly terrible experience with her adoptive father and a few drinks, Rebecca Harrison finds her much-needed escape from reality in her soon-to-be biology teacher. When the two meet again at the beginning of the school year, neither know what to make of the situation. But their conflict with each other is no match for the conflict Rebecca faces with her adoptive father, and the two soon find themselves developing a relationship that tests both of their willingness to let others in. For entirely different reasons, they find themselves pushing each other away. Until they realize that their reasons aren't so different at all. This story is girlxgirl, teacherxstudent, and it deals with topics such as abuse, alcoholism, and suicide. It's my best work but it can be depressing at times & may be triggering to some. [Editing on-going, Sequel - TBD]

⚠️ Very important ⚠️ !!! This is a re-upload; I did NOT write this book. The author deleted their account. A brainy, awkward young American moves to England to attend Oxford University. She befriends a much older (historically heterosexual) female English professor. Over the years, their relationship evolves from one of protective friendship to something romantic, highlighting the difficulties and joys of age gap, lesbian relationships. 1,914 pages. (I'm not sure if this would count as Mature or not- it's borderline in some places later on, so I'm marking it so, just in case. It's certainly not HBO in here.) Please read the first chapter!! If the author will contact me, I'll delete the book immediately!! Author: BlakeVBurton
