Forbidden Professor
Never fall in love with your professor…
I didn’t know he was my professor the first time I met him. Gorgeous. Sandy brown hair, beautiful green eyes, rich as sin and hot AF. He looked like a Greek god in Burberry and imported leather shoes. He smelled of exotic spices, of luxurious comforts and danger. The first thought that came to mind when I saw him… Are men like him even legal?
It started out with an accidental kiss and now I can’t stop thinking about him. He tasted like honey and citrus, a flavor as sinfully sweet as his kiss. His touch seemed to awaken sensations and feelings I had shoved down into the depths of my soul long ago. Things I thought I could live without all these years. Until I met him.
I know he’s completely off-limits. Taboo. So why does something so wrong feel so right?
It didn’t matter that I was risking everything. The apprenticeship, my degree, my future. But the way he looks at me makes me want to give up everything.
So, I have a choice to make. Do I confess my love and risk my career? Or…. let my heart shatter to pieces?
This is a standalone billionaire steamy romance with a happily ever after and absolutely no cheating!

A great story of forbidden love. Turned out to be a great read.
I was rooting for Aly and Zach from the first time they met. There was an instant attraction. I loved how Aly took her hard times and turned it into something positive and didn’t play the victim. She stood up for what she believed in and didn’t put up with B.S.
Fast pace read with drama, lust, love, and drama.

A student and her professor.
This is my second read and first time reviewing. I’d give it a 4.5 rounded up to 5 stars.
I really liked how this book started out. Yes, they met before they knew they were student and teacher but it wasn’t the tired, played out scenario of either a one night stand or the teach finding her in a sleazy strip club. Yes, they had an attraction and a connection but they hadn’t acted upon it when she showed up in his class.
They story had good pacing, lots of ups and downs. The only thing I didn’t like was when Zach went out to a club to try to get laid (before they got together) she he could get her off his mind. Nothing ended up happening but I still can’t stand that.

Aly is a student and gets and apprenticeship with her Professor, Zach. Sparks fly but could get in trouble if caught, can they deny their attraction? Fast-paced read with plenty of drama and steamy chemistry. Entertaining read with characters that have lots of depth. I liked it.

A professor who meets “the one” in his class but as her advisor? This can’t be good..
All is working towards doing something good for the community but she needs the apprenticeship in order for that to happen. She is making money with a job in the Garden Dept. for Home Depot. Then she sees him. Muscular, piercing eyes, is her drool visible?
Zach Hawthorne is helping his best friend with one of his latest projects to help those who need a helping hand. He has the money to help out so he’s at Home Depot to pick up supplies. He needs to place an order and then he sees “her” he has to get to know her. So he asks for her help.
Aly needs an advisor to put the finishing touches to her proposal for the apprenticeship but she can’t keep her mind off the handsome man she met yesterday. She’s heard how hard her advisor is, but she’s tough she’s not going to crumble. She’s supposed to meet with him after class. When she walks into her first class the professor walks in and it’s the man from Home Depot! He introduces himself and realizes he’s been assigned as her advisor! This is not going to work is it?!

Unexpected
I was prepared not to like this book. I've seen taboo romances about a teacher and a student so many times. Many of them are 90% sex, 5% actual dialog between the H/h and 5% one or the other of themselves5 thinking/remembering/fantasizing.
This was not that type of book. I would say it was 80% dialog, 15% steamy sex & 5% them being in their head. These characters were so well written, If I didn't know better, I would think this book was non-fiction. Their feelings, struggles & victories, their highs, lows & everything in between were so relatable.

Professor and Student Romance.
Teacher/Student tropes are not something I usually find myself reading. This one was written without all the drama that usually occurs in stories like this. I enjoyed it. I liked the relationships with the side characters too. An enjoyable read.

Cute
Alt has her plan for life set in stone, but then she meets Zach at her job at Home Depot, only later to find put he's supposed to be her mentor in the apprenticeship program, things get a little messy before they turn in the right direction.

Mistress material
This book had so much potential... the H was an ass but he’s character grew but the h not so much. If he would of asked her to be his mistress I know she would had eventually agreed. Ek not for me.

Por la portada pensé que iba a ser un libro con mas escenas 18 , pero me equivoque, claro que hay una química entre los protagonistas pero este es un libro mas tiernos, mas romántico. Nada mal para pasar el rato, pero no es un libro que te quede con huella en el corazón.

This book was too contrived. It was like the author had an outline and plopped in paragraphs to suit the outline with very little build up or transition. While I think the author has potential it’s not very well showcased here.

A Great Plot
Great storyline and loved the justice that Jackson got. Karma is sweet. Short, sweet, and interesting. A great lesson on doing right and knowing that sometimes you can’t do it alone.

Not a fan
Of teacher/student situations. They can get messy as we saw in this book. It turned into stalking and blackmail couple d with jail time.

Zach and Aly
This one started out quite slow for me but finally 3/4s in it all started coming together. Not a huge fan of the wrong-doing angle but overall a cute story

Professor & Orange work vest
This story was fine. It felt drawn out in parts and really rushed and sped up in others. I enjoyed reading it though.

I really enjoy the story. They had a connection from the start. She is a cashier and he is a rich customer.

Loved how the story played out and how he knew she was it for him! He truly fought for what he wanted and threw caution to the wind and she finally accepted it! Loved it!

"Forbidden Professor" es una historia de un amor prohibido entre un profesor y su alumna.
Por la portada pense que esto seria una locura de escenas spicy pero la autora me engaño jajajaja
Porque los personajes son lo más tierno del mundo, me encanto su primer encuentro y su segundo encuentro. La autora con su escritura me hizo sentir que estaba en los ambientes y que participaba de esta historia de amor.
Al ser una historia tan corta no conocemos profundamente a los personajes con respecto a sus pasados y tampoco tenemo grandes detalles de los ambientes.

This is a great story once I started it I couldn't put it down. the chemistry between them is off the charts hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

I really enjoyed Zach and Aly's story. When you find someone that turns your world upside down by just one glance, one gesture, one word and you know that you've just met the person you want to spend your life with. Well for these two, it's a little more complicated than that. While meeting during her shift at work, words were exchanged and kind of hit Zach where it hurt, just a little. Yes he's rich, gorgeous, hot and more, but he doesn't like being made out to be selfish, uncaring and just throwing money around to fix things. Aly is quite the spitfire and a perfect match for Zach, but the on caveat is he turns out to be her Professor, the one that decides who gets the apprenticeship, which could cause problems for them if anyone finds out about them. These two each have their own baggage to sort through, secrets and lies never help a relationship. This was a great story, I really like this author and I can't wait to see if there is more to come with the other characters in their story. I found this book on BookSprout.

Find a comfortable place to read and settle in for an emotional ride. Love, fear, threats, hard work, blackmail, passion, friendship, rivals with a HEA ending, the Forbidden Professor has this and more.
Aly is a strong and determined woman just doing her best to take care of her mom, work , while going to school. Zach, grew up rich, but not all is gold. He struggled to get out from his father's demands to fall in line, when all he wanted to do was be his own man.
Another great story from R. S. Elloitt, can't wait for the next book

T.S. Elliott has done it again with Forbidden Professor. What can I say but Wow, Awesome and Great. The chemistry between Zack( #gorgeous hunk) and Aly started from the very beginning and continued throughout the book. It took an interesting turn when they both found out that Zack was Aly’s professor. Trying to deny their passion was hard until they gave in. I must say it was well worth it. A must read. It will keep you warm on a cold night.

This is another great tale of a taboo relationship between teacher and student. Zach and Ally, he holds her apprenticeship in his hands, but will they be found out. Their sizzling chemistry makes this story interesting and mind blowing. The drama, suspense and the characters makes this a fabulous story and i hope to read more about the other characters in this story.

its a good story .. a simple meeting provides the right attraction. but it is not that easy, because he is her teacher. he has money, but after spending on charities, it doesn;t make him happy ... especially when it comes to his father. she is a young lady with a goal in mind, making her dreams come true, even though she can;t resist the temptation. all in all i enjoyed. from me 5 stars

R.S. Elliot has started this new series off with a bang!!

Not only is she now in her final year of Berkeley and waiting to hear if she got her apprenticeship or not, she is working her tail off to help her mom keep the roof over her head. While at work one day a customer asks her for help. Little did she know who this man was but she will soon find out. 🖤🖤
