    Summary

    “Oxford, like twenty years ago—” Twenty-one, actually. “I was there for a term abroad. We had a class together.” Alex huffs a disbelieving laugh and pushes a hand back through his curls. “We, uh, well. There was that party after final exams…”

    “I’m so sorry, I don’t recall that one” Henry lies, flashing an apologetic smile. “I don’t remember the details of most of those uni parties these days.”

    (Twenty years ago, Henry met—and let go of—his soulmate. Now he's in his 40s, with a new job in a new city, and certainly not expecting said soulmate to come barreling into his life again. A small white lie seems like the simplest way to keep things from getting awkward, but real life has a way of getting complicated.)

    Summary

    The fear of being hurt again is there: Familiar and inescapable.
    But Henry’s body is famished, and Alex is a level of irresistible he hasn’t been faced with since he made his resolution to shun empty sex.
    Alex is a gorgeous, dynamic, promiscuous bisexual who, when he leaves London tomorrow, will doubtless commence fucking his way through Europe. This blunt realization pacifies Henry’s tremulous heart.
    There really isn’t any danger, he reminds himself as he looks down into those deep, earnest eyes.
    Because Alex isn’t what he wants.
    But tonight, Henry needs what he’s offering.

    Summary

    “The second Henry saw Professor Claremont-Diaz’s photograph on the university website–a professional headshot of a man with silver threading his dark, perfectly styled hair, sharp cheekbones that could cut glass, and a jawline that seemed almost architectural–his heart had skipped a beat.”

    In which Henry, a 21-year-old college junior, learns three very important lessons: 1) signing up for a class because the professor is hot might not be the smartest decision; 2) Professor Claremont-Diaz being both infuriatingly brilliant and painfully attractive doesn’t help; and 3) discovering just how impossibly gorgeous said professor looks on his knees for him is the best kind of academic revelation.
