London Hale

In this Temperance Falls novella, Elliot Goodridge is obsessed over the pretty barista at the local coffee shop. They’ve been flirting for months, and he finally gets up the nerve to ask her out. Then he learns the truth—Samantha Monroe is a college student, a month shy of graduating, and her father is a college trustee. Unfortunately, Elliot is the new dean of students. A relationship is forbidden, but neither of them can stay away from each other.
The sex scenes were super hot, and there were a lot of them! I loved all their raunchy dirty talk too. Elliot and Sam were strong-willed, mature characters, but they weren’t all that careful in keeping their relationship a secret. The story takes place on an island (I have no idea where), so the community is tight-knit and people are bound to talk.
I really wish the characters’ ages had been mentioned. Sam is just graduating, so she’s around 21. Elliot is the youngest dean in his field, but I imagine he’s between 30-35. I could be wrong. Despite the age gap, they fit well together.

Ms. Hale tempts with her domineering male and his equally alpha mate. A tango is only as good as the dancers that perform it. Ms. Hale may use a pen and paper in her performance, but she can seduce with the best of them.… (mere)
