Forbidden Romance: so expect some forbidden elements. Celia "Cece" Cedric is a nerd. She is at the top of her class and hides comfortably behind her big glasses, but they can't hide her pretty face from the handsome young teacher who's returned to teach AP Literature to the most qualified seniors in their mediocre school. Two years ago when he had first taught her, she had a massive crush on him that she thought she had overcome... but he still has those deep blue eyes and that perfect rock hard body every female student is lusting over. As if it isn't hard enough for her already, he asks his most talented student if she can help him tutor others, bribing her with recommendation letters. She's too kind to refuse, but she's determined to fight her feelings. Making matters worse, her brother's teammate's usually harmless taunts are getting dangerous and demanding. The only person who's there to keep her safe is Mr. Jamie Gallagher, and he shouldn't be there in the first place, but he can't stay away...

"It is your choice," he said, stepping so close to me that our lips were almost touching. "Either do what I say - or get another job." My heart stood still as I gazed up into his deep, dark, dangerous eyes... In a world where women's only role in life is to sit at home and look pretty, Lilly is determined to fight for her freedom. There's only one problem: a powerful man blocking her way.

Julianne Burke is a young and advanced college student with an eye for trouble. Ever since her last year in high school, when the only man she ever loved disappeared without a single glance, she has been an expert at evading heartbreak. And hasn't formed a meaningful connection since. Sure, she's young, funny, pretty, and too smart, but she has kept her love interests at a distance and kept everything simple. Fun. No feelings attached. But now, with as much ease as when he disappeared, Emmett Reyes has returned to her life as a successful and sexy business tycoon. He's determined to win back the girl whom once had given her all for him, but there's a problem when she can't even stand the idea of him. If only she would give, but there's just something... Something about Emmett. And maybe, he'll break through her barriers one last time.
