Her Teacher's Muse

After her parents died, Erika didn't care about anything. Not her friends, not school, nothing. Except for her art. Painting was the only thing that she felt kept her close to her mother, terrified that sharing it meant she would lose her for good.

This year was her final year and her aunt forced her to take an art class. Erika promised to try and open up a bit more. Who knew, maybe this is what she needed to find her passion. Find that love her mother said was the secret to her greatest paintings. And rumor was, the new art teacher from Dublin had everyone talking.

Stefan grew up tough. His father was an alcoholic that forced him into rugby while his mother was a tough bitch who wanted him to teach as she did. Sketching was the only place he felt he could show his emotions. His mother kicked out his father after he beat the bloody daylights out of his son for wanting to be an artist. Being an art teacher was the best compromise to do what he wanted and please his mother. Right out of university, he took a job at some private school in Paris. This was going to be his fresh start. Hopefully helping these rich kids to find their passion for art would help himself.

But all his plans blew out the window when he walked in the first day of class to see Erika Monet sitting silently at her desk, those stunning silver eyes staring right into his very core. He knew student relationships where a bad idea, but she had just stolen his heart and he was helpless against it.
