I was never the villain, but betrayal has a way of turning a man into a monster. Gabe Ashford was one of my best friends. Then he destroyed everything. When his sweet little sister, Evie, walked onto my campus as my student years later, all soft smiles and innocence, I knew exactly how to take my Under me as I thrust into it. The plan was simple. Blackmail her. Take away her choice. Make her mine. Use her to gut him from the inside out, all while making her fall in love with me. It was supposed to be clean. Perfect. Complete destruction. But the sweetest thing about Evie was she didn't shatter under my control. She submitted. She obeyed. She taught me what it was like to feel again. I wanted to teach her a lesson, too, because she had helped her brother destroy me, even if she hadn't realized she had. But some lessons cut both ways. And the hardest ones? Are the ones you never see coming. Hard Lessons is a dark college professor/student romance with an age gap. This is a standalone.
