SMILE FOR ME SIR || SS

You'll tell yourself he's kind.
You'll tell yourself he's safe.

A man like that-soft-spoken, warm-eyed, with a fiancée and a future-should never burn. But he does.

And boys like Joshua?
They've always been drawn to fire.

At nineteen, he's too rich to be pitied, too lonely to be loved, and too dangerous to be ignored. He's used to getting what he wants. And what he wants now is a thirty-four-year-old Korean professor who calls him student.

But obsession never asks for permission.
It wraps itself around gentle men and drags them down screaming.

By the time you realize what this is...
It's already too late.
