AUTHOR: Alana Jade
GENRE: Sweet Professor/Student Romance

BLURB.

One glance across the classroom.
That’s all it took.
My heart exploded. But I knew it was wrong.
I’m a college student, trying to be the best I can. And he is the handsome teacher who should know better, right?

A juvenile dare from my best friend, involving my teacher, changes the course of my life.
And the subtle glances across the room turn to something much more.
Our chemistry is palpable, even though we try to hide it.

I’m tempting him with everything I have.
Tyler Roberts isn’t just my teacher, he’s the man who has all my attention, and my feelings can’t be ignored.

This game we’re playing is dangerous. But I know he feels this pull too. One kiss, and everything changes. We both know it’s wrong. There’s so much at stake…

But how can something that feels so incredibly right be so damn wrong?
We just have to see if we can make this work
Without being caught…

READ AN EXCERPT.

“I think I’d like to dance with you, too, but only tonight. We go back to our professional relationship first thing tomorrow morning. It’s for the best.” Her words are tinged with sadness, and I feel it too. I don’t want this to end.
As I pull her close, I grasp her hand against my chest as I whisper in her ear, “I’d like to see where this goes, I really would. But as much as I don’t want to, I know you’re right. Professional from tomorrow.” Leaning back slightly, I search her eyes before leaning toward her mouth, brushing my lips against hers.
I’m convinced she can feel the thud of my heart against my ribcage as I pull back again. A small smile appears on her lips as I lean in again to place my lips on hers, this time, gently massaging hers with my own.
Grace rests her head again on my chest, and we continue to dance, even though the slower music has been replaced by something more upbeat.
I’ll dance with her as long as she’ll let me. I want to enjoy every minute with her, especially since I know that I’ll never be able to get this close to her again.
It’s for the best Tyler.




MY REVIEW.

3.5 Stars from Tiffany!
⭐⭐⭐

Very Heavy Teacher Student

As a fan of this genre, I couldn't wait to see what Tempting Teacher had in store for me. There's nothing like the angsty page turning of a taboo book, not patiently waiting to see what's going to happen next.

As most do, our teacher and student are of age to keep that creep meter in check. Professor Roberts is twenty nine and on the fast track to tenure. He's a self-proclaimed nerdy guy completely interested in teaching his students all about his first love, physics. That said, the girl in his first class is reading ahead before class starts, she looks up and it's all over for Professor Tyler Roberts.

Grace is a good girl by force. She's twenty one, but acts like she's much younger than that due to her dads strict upbringing. She appreciates that she still lives under his roof and that he is paying for her education and doesn't ever want to disappoint him. That said, like Tyler, one look and all rules start to go out the window.

While we have the teacher/student thing going on, it really takes a back seat to Grace's personal life. At one point I would have rather had Tyler as a childhood friend or long lost love than her teacher, as the taboo storyline gets lost pretty quickly. I had a hard time with Grace being her naรฏve self on one page and then acting like a completely different person on the next. Maybe a more gradual maturing on her part would have worked better.

While I liked the story of Tyler and Grace, minus the teacher aspect, it felt clunky and stiff to me. I'm not a huge fan of insta-love and this was pretty much insta-everything for them. Everything but the kitchen sink was thrown in for this new couple to deal with, along with the fact they are still actually a student and teacher. Tempting Teacher reads as a stand alone with a nice epilogue to wrap things up.
