#BookReview – “Seducing his Student” by London Hale

Blurb

The last thing a newly hired dean should be doing is one of his students…

Dirty flirting with the unbelievably hot barista at Bundt & Grind café is not how Elliott Goodridge should be spending his time. Temperance Falls College hired him to counteract a scandal—not burn through his paychecks on overpriced coffee with a side of impure thoughts.

For the amount of time college student Samantha Monroe spends fantasizing about the new guy in town, she should know more than just his name. But despite putting out all kinds of signs that she’s down for, well, putting out, Elliott hasn’t made a move. Yet.

By the time the truth is revealed, it’s too late to stop the charge between them. Sparks fly, but so do rumors. For Elliott, a day without his hands on Sam is too long—and two orgasm-free weeks until graduation is flat-out impossible.

Review

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.
