Taught · A City's Secrets Novella

**Jim**

I didn't ask to have my heart broken, but whatever. All I had to do was quit my job and start over.

Which is how I ended up teaching college classes by day and playing in my band by night.

Nothing is going to break me again. Nothing is going to distract me from my goals. Not even some sexy young college girl.

But when I get locked in a stairwell with the hottest librarian I’ve ever met, I need to choose. Do I want to keep moving forward, or do I want to see what's underneath her cool exterior?

**Emma**

I don't need to fall for anyone.

I've got enough stress in my life. Between class, work, and pressure from my family, I have enough to deal with.

Which is why I don't know what to do when I catch some hot professor using a Staff Only room as his personal library. I should follow the rules, but something about him makes me want to throw them all away.

Turns out, he plays in a band, and they're actually pretty good. So when he wants me, I'm not sure what to do.

Give in to sweet temptation, or stay true to my path?
