Synopses & Reviews
No more pity love for Connor, from aunts and neighbors, from missing mothers and fathers. From drunks. No, this time the real thing is his. He just has to take it. Kathleen Jeffrie Johnson, known for "riveting" fiction (Kirkus Reviews, starred review of Target), digs deep into the heart of a forbidden relationship. Sometimes, she tells us, loneliness can send a boy down a dangerous path. Sometimes, it can take a while to find the way back.
Synopsis
Connor, not quite eighteen, has a crush on his history teacher, Ms. Timms, and it may be reciprocated, in a provocative and compelling story of a steamy affair between a high school graduate and his teacher. 20,000 first printing.
