No one hated each other as much as Tyler Murphy and Hazel Parker, every glance a slow, venomous burn. Yet beneath the surface, something deeper pulled them in, something they consumed in bitter, silent doses. It wasn't the hatred that destroyed them-it was the poison they couldn't stop sipping. The poison of love.

When she comes to school sick and sneezes on the notorious 'bad girl', Avery's attempts at being a wallflower backfire. *Disclaimer: This book was written and completed before the coronavirus pandemic. The author does not endorse sneezing on people. *

Lucia Bellandi has always been certain of who she is. At twenty, her life is comfortable, predictable, and carefully uncomplicated. She has her friends, her university classes, her part time job, and a future she has never had much reason to question. Then she meets Professor Vivienne Marrow. Cold, intimidating, impossibly composed, and far too observant, Vivienne is the kind of woman Lucia should have no reason to think about once she leaves the seminar room. Except she does. At first, Lucia tells herself it's admiration. Vivienne is intelligent, confident, and everything Lucia wishes she could be. The strange feeling in her chest must mean nothing more than nerves. But the more often their paths cross, the harder it becomes to ignore the questions Lucia has spent her entire life avoiding. Because sometimes discovering who you are means questioning everything you thought you already knew. And sometimes the person who makes you question it is the one person you were never supposed to want.

Until 𝐋𝐚𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐑𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐞, who was never supposed to be anything more than a 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭. The untouchable heir to one of the most powerful and dangerous dynasties in the world. The mission was simple.

Florence is nineteen and already cracking under the weight of her father's expectations. Her OCD lives in the details no one can fully understand - counting ceiling holes, touching doorframes twice, rewriting notes until they feel "right." And the guilt is always there. God is watching. Her father is watching. Every thought, every slip - a sin, a failure, a punishment waiting to happen. She prays not because she wants to - but because she's terrified not to. Irmina is twenty-five. CEO of a powerful law firm. Sharp. Ruthless. Calculated. She keeps everything running perfectly and tolerates nothing out of place. Wealthy, supported, unshakable - the type of woman you either obey or get out of her way. When she cares, she will burn the world down to protect it. Florence thinks she's not enough. Irmina knows she's more than enough. The imbalance is real. And everything in between is uncertain.

TRIGGER WARNING: SMUT DETAILED- If you aren't comfortable please skip this is the only warning. Some people are all wrong for you on paper, and perfect in every way that matters. *Professor Catherine Whitmore has spent her entire life doing what was expected of her. The right schools. The right career. The right relationship, until it shattered quietly, leaving her guarded and certain she can read people better than she actually can. At 38, she doesn't do reckless. She doesn't do vulnerable. And she certainly doesn't do students. *Rowan Sinclair learned early that love means showing up, even when it's hard. After losing her mother at thirteen and watching her father struggle through grief, she became the steady one, raising her younger siblings, holding her family together. At 21, she's at Greystone University trying to build a life that's finally her own. She's been in love once before, but never like this. Never with someone who makes her feel seen and completely terrified at the same time. *When Rowan walks into Catherine's literature class, something shifts. Rowan sees through every wall Catherine has built- observant where Catherine is guarded, patient where Catherine is controlled, soft where Catherine is sharp. And Catherine? She's starting to realize Rowan isn't infatuated, isn't temporary, isn't another counterfeit. What starts as academic tension becomes something neither of them can ignore. But loving each other means risking everything- Catherine's career, her family's legacy, and the control she's fought so hard to maintain. A semi slow-burn, forbidden romance about healing, trust, and learning that love isn't about being smart enough to avoid pain- it's about being brave enough to try again.

teacher x student wlw age gap slow burn "You're staring." Chloe looked away "I'm not." Rebecca raised an eyebrow. "You are." "I'm thinking." "That's somehow more concerning." Chloe Walker has exactly one opinion about her new History professor: she's suspiciously familiar, annoyingly intelligent, and apparently impossible to avoid. Rebecca Harper has exactly one opinion about Chloe: she's chaotic, unpredictable, and somehow always saying the first thing that comes into her head. Between questionable meme shirts, university disasters, late-night encounters, and a friendship that slowly begins to mean more than either of them expected, their lives keep crossing paths. Neither of them is looking for anything. Especially not each other. But between unexpected encounters, terrible jokes, late-night conversations, Chloe and Rebecca might discover that some people enter your life when you least expect them. And sometimes, the people who seem the most different from you are the ones who understand you best.

She was seated next to the window seat. Strangely, I've been seeing her every day on my way to work, either in the morning or at night, either crossing across the street or catching a glimpse of her back anywhere I go. I grinned as I approached her. I touched her shoulder making her jump slightly. "Is this seat taken?" I questioned why she was looking up at me with big eyes. "Ye-ss, I mean No, no" she mumbled. I raised my brow at her stuttering and took a seat. "So I have a question to ask you." She put her phone down and made straight eye contact with me before leaning back in her chair and crossed her arms. "I believe I may have an answer to your question." I let out a small chuckle at her sudden confidence. "Is it just a coincidence that I've been seeing you for the past three days after our little encounter, or are you a crazy stalker stalking me?" she sighed.

Professor Eleanor Pierce has exactly one opinion about Celine Avery: she's chaotic, exhausting, and somehow always at the center of every disaster. Celine, meanwhile, is busy hiding the fact that she spends her nights on dangerous missions while trying not to fail psychology during the day.
