**A sizzling new romance from Julia Gabriel**

"What a sigh-worthy tale! The relationship between Marie and Luc is a slowly growing burn. One that isn't an insta-love relationship, it builds with each lesson, making it much more romantic ... There are twists and turns in this story that one will not expect, which is a delightful surprise. Ms. Gabriel does an amazing job of making the reader want to turn every page and savor it." -- *InD'Tale Magazine*

"Gabriel paints white-hot sex scenes."-- *Kirkus Reviews*

*When you're enrolled in the school of hard knocks ...*

Marie Witherspoon can't catch a break. She's been dumped by her husband—a rising political star in Washington, DC—and humiliated by his gossip blogger mistress. Just when she's picked herself up and dusted herself off, her ex changes his mind and calls off the divorce.

*Falling in love with your teacher can't possibly make things any worse.*

There's just one hitch. Marie has rekindled an old hobby and her relationship with her new drawing teacher, French artist Luc Marchand, is *way* past the point of no return. With her heart on the line, she's prepared to do *anything* to keep from returning to her old life.

*Or can it?*

It's been twelve long years since Luc Marchand's life was shattered by a former student. Forced out of academia, he's walled off his heart and his career. Now he has a chance to revive both—if his past doesn't destroy everything for Luc and Marie.
