When I left for college, I was resigned to following the path my father has laid out; my one small rebellion is the ballroom dance class I insist on taking. But when I meet my professor, I find myself questioning everything I’ve been taught. The man is attractive and charming, and he makes me so flustered I end up saying things I instantly regret. When Professor Lito realizes I lack the confidence to lead my dance partner, he decides to spend extra time helping me outside of class hours. He seems to only see me as a student—until the night he presses me against the mirror while whispering hot commands into my ear. Follow My Lead is a 18k word novella about an awkward student learning how to stop following the expectations of others and step up to take the lead.
