Troisième opus de Leah Raeder : Intelligente, sexy et provocante, l'histoire d'une passion interdite entre une élève et son jeune professeur. Maise O'Malley vient de fêter ses 18 ans et s'apprête à commencer des études de cinéma. Cette jeune fille au caractère bien trempé, qui prétend n'avoir peur de rien et ment volontiers sur son âge, a toujours eu l'impression d'avoir grandi trop vite. Quand elle rencontre Evan un soir dans une fête foraine, l'attirance est immédiate, intense, et pour elle sans lendemain. Pourtant, dès le jour suivant, Maise ne pense à rien d'autre qu'à lui. Ce trentenaire lui fait découvrir combien l'amour peut être plus qu'une brève rencontre, qu'il peut révéler une complicité inattendue avec un homme qui la comprend réellement. Un homme qui voit derrière ses bravades la petite fille effrayée et courageuse qu'elle est en réalité. Le jour de la rentrée, Maise découvre avec stupeur qu'Evan n'est autre que Mr Wilke, son nouveau professeur de cinéma. Tous deux décident d'interrompre leur liaison, mais leurs sentiments les rattrapent : ils sont incapables de résister à leur attirance mutuelle. Si à l'université et devant les autres, Maise et Evan sont deux acteurs feignant l'indifférence, dès qu'ils partagent des moments ensemble, ils se sentent vivre et être pleinement eux-mêmes. Mais leurs masques sont fragiles et menacent souvent de tomber. Les élèves les observent, les rumeurs courent... Commence alors un jeu dangereux dont il leur sera difficile de sortir indemnes. uatrième de couverture Maise O'Malley vient de fêter ses 18 ans et s'apprête à commencer des études de cinéma.
