"He'd make the rules this time. She still wanted him to be a guilty secret when he'd loved her for years. He'd stick to the plan to punish her. She deserved it."

This series keeps getting better and better! I loved this one, not only because us cougars have a voice, but the story was amazing. My heart broke for Noah, remembering all to well the feeling of that first love and the desperation that comes with it.

Noah Morgan has his whole life ahead of him. The world is his for the taking. But he already knows what he wants. Her. Natalia. He's loved her for the last five years and she's shown him more than he could ever have expected. So what if she's twenty years his senior - she's his. But, he's tired of being her secret. Tired of her making all the rules. He's taking charge now and everyone will know who she belongs to. But, will finding out that he's not the only secret she's kept change everything?

Natalia crossed a line. She couldn't help it. Yes, she has been instructing Noah in violin since he was sixteen, but he means more to her than he could ever know. Their tryst is one of passion, submission, and secrecy. She hasn't offered up anything about her past, and he hasn't asked. But that's all about to change. Will letting him in to her dark past cause her to lose him forever? Should she just walk away and let him move on without her? She'd miss him, but maybe it's for the best. Right?

This is my favorite of the series so far! I was routing for Noah to finally get what he wanted and I was silently encouraging him to go for it!! As a reader close to Natalia's age (ok, maybe not as close as I'd like to think) I vacillated between not understanding why she got involved with Noah at all, to not really being sure if she was just using him or if she really loved him. I think she loved him, knowing she might not be able keep him - as if she was loving him with restraint to protect herself.

I have really enjoyed watching the boys of Stadium evolve from unsure teens to young men. Noah certainly shows signs of an alpha in the making! I can't wait to see what's next for them all!

Violin Student falls for the older music teacher. When they are together the passion is HOT! A relative of Natalie's arrives and Noah must disappear, will the secrecy be too much? Can Natalie get past the age difference? Give this book a read and find out. Another great installment to this series - looking forward to the next book.

Ok

I don't care for this book or where the story is going. Death and Isaac giving up his dream just sunk this story. The molestation of a minor by a teacher is sick. Does not make it romantic.

Noah has a very twisted story. He fell for his violin teacher. For 5 years he only had eyes for her. But his love had to stay silent because of the age difference. Natalia taught Noah a lot of things besides violin. Like how to be a man. Would love to have more of Noah's story! Thank you Meg Buchanan!
