Publisher's summary

When Tessa Harrison meets Michael McMichael (Yes - his parents were those people) her first instinct is to clobber him on sight. He's naked and standing in the middle of her apartment, clobbering seems sensible, and Tessa is nothing if not sensible.

But that sensibility begins to wane as the two continue to be thrust together, and before long, there's no denying their increasingly intense connection, even if it is just physical.

It has to be. Because it's all he's offering. And it's all her guarded heart knows how to accept.

Tessa's convinced she's got everything under control but does she? It doesn't take long before the rules get blurred, feelings are revealed and hearts are on the line.

Just as Tessa's about to take that last big leap, everything could end in one final crash. And it's all she needs to remember the lesson she learned years ago...

You fall, you go under. You don't get back up.

So you simply...don't fall.

Rom-com with some heavy emotional upheaval

This is the second book I've read/listened to by K.S. Thomas. This is definitely closer to the typical romance with a HEA. I had to endure the beginning to get to the good. I say endured because I didn't care for the humor/attitudes/personalities of the characters. BUT I say good because I cried. My heart squeezed in pain and I felt the characters emotions. I eventually started to care for the characters. That is some great writing.

Stephanie Montalvo did an excellent job of narrating. I enjoyed her performance.

age gap romance

Tessa is a senior in college studying journalism and psychology. She's spirited, sassy, and independent.
Lane is devastated by his fiance leaving right before the wedding. All he wanted was to dissapper, He moved away and took a temporary professor position teaching psychology.
They met when she came home in the middle of the night. He was naked, she was wielding her umbrella to fight him off. He had a lease, she had the condo.
To make things worse, she found out he is her psychology professor.
Can they make this work without him losing his job, and Tessa losing her scholarship?
This is a delightful, fun story, with some soul searching by both.
Stephanie Montalvo is a new narrator for me. I really enjoy listening to this story.
