Samantha's roommate is getting married, and the impending nuptials will leave her without a home as her best friend starts a new life… without her. Okay, maybe she’s being a little dramatic. Their friendship isn’t over, but Sam definitely has to find a new place to stay. Luckily for her, her cousin has a sweet loft close to campus. Not so lucky for her, Sam’s cousin already has a roomie, a really hot one, and he’s teaching the one class she’s failing.
Gavin’s pretty happy with his living situation. His roommate is low key, and he’s pretty much got the run of the loft, and for minimal rent. But when his roommate lets his cousin stay with them, it puts a definite damper on the bachelor pad vibe. For one thing, Cousin Sam is not the dude Gavin was expecting. For another, he can’t shake his attraction to her, an attraction he definitely shouldn’t have for his student.
Maybe he can just avoid her until the semester is over. Except, their attraction is unavoidable.

Sam’s in college & her best friend, Maggie just got engaged. Maggie asks Sam to move out so she can live with her fiancé. Sam knows her cousin, Rob, has a spare room so she asks to stay. Rob just got a roommate so there isn’t a spare room anymore but he allows her to stay until she can find a place of her own. Rob’s roommate, Gavin, walks in on Sam in the bathtub. He didn’t know Sam was a girl. They’re both attracted to each other but he is the TA in one of her classes. Gavin knows it’s wrong to have a teacher student relationship. Can the two of them deny their growing attraction?
I liked the read. Sam and Gavin made a great couple. But I find it hard to believe that they were so hot for eachother that they couldn't wait for the last 3 weeks of the semester to end before dating. No one in their right mind would jeopardize the future teaching career at a University with how they ended up together - that they couldn't hold out for 2 to 3 weeks before dating. Not very realistic. Good read nevertheless
As with the first book in the series, I think the ending and resolution was a tad rushed. Other than that, I have to say that I loved it. I enjoyed the taboo of the "teacher"/student relationship and how forced proximity was used to encourage and advance the relationship. I also love a good series where the characters are all connected, but each book revolves around a different couple. I'm looking forward to reading book three.
