SUMMARY: (SPOILER WARNING)

Shawn is failing his Fluid Mechanics college class and he needs to pass that class in order to graduate. So when his friend suggests he flirts a little with the professor, he decides to go for it because he’s desperate.

What he doesn’t expect is to enter into a confusing ongoing affair with his professor. Especially considering the fact that he’s always thought of himself as straight.

REVIEW:

Like the prequel in this series, this was super hot! The chemistry between Shawn and Rutledge was phenomenal. I also loved Rutledge’s dominance. It’s not for everyone, but it worked for me.

I really liked Shawn as a character too. He’s strong and brave to take care of his sisters after their parents died. I can’t help but admire him for that.

I also liked the connection this one had to the prequel (titled “Straight Boy”). Shawn is Sage’s cousin from that book. We also get to find out the crime Xavier really did to land in prison. In my first review I even said there was no way that he really “killed eight people at a mall”. It was actually funny how it was brought up in this book and Xavier was teasing Sage for believing that he really did that for so long.

The whole book definitely was four stars until the end, which I felt was an abrupt ending and didn’t properly wrap up. Yes, they are happy. But it still just felt like it needed an epilogue or something. It just needed a better conclusion.

Overall it was hot and steamy with great characters. Loved everything about it except the abrupt ending, which was more of a HFN than a HEA.
