Kept by the Professor: An Older Man Younger Woman Romance


Sasha Gold - 2019
    Tall, muscular, a Viking with a tool belt. My last semester. I’m borderline failing Algebra, the last class I need to graduate. I’ve been getting extra help from my dear, elderly professor, bringing him cookies once a week in exchange for tutoring, and then the rug is pulled out from under me. With two weeks to go, my prof leaves. A sub is coming to finish the semester. When I see the moving van pull up, I bake a dozen, oversized mint chocolate chip cookies, and I head over. My new prof isn’t there, though, just a couple of movers and a muscular, arrogant handyman. He helps himself to the cookies and flirts a little. He's so hot, I don’t stop him. I’m pretty much speechless, which doesn’t happen to me. That night, he helps me save my new puppy, and my fantasies for him kick into overdrive. Little do I realize… he wants me too. And even less do I realize… he’s my new professor.

 And then it happened... I saw Grey and felt something instantly.

 But he didn’t let me stop it. He kissed me until my toes curled and my heart raced. He kissed me until I knew I wanted more.
 So when I left him standing there staring at me, I knew it was all kinds of wrong to leave.  Grey 
It started with a dare. 
It ended with a kiss.
And for weeks after she walked out of my life, I searched for her, doing anything and everything in my power to find a morsel of information about the first woman to make my heart stop and my future flash before my eyes.
 And when I finally found her, I was going to show Ari that I’d known she was mine from the very beginning.
 And that I wasn’t letting her go a second time.
