I’m in trouble. A quick and dirty hookup with the hunky mechanic I just met is bad enough. But when that God-like twenty-year-old turns out to be a student in my English class, I know it’s about to get much worse. Pax Smith isn’t just the star player on the rugby team at Florence U and the hottest man I’ve ever been with. He also has a dark sordid past, and it’s written in the deep scars all over his face. Not to mention—he’s in the closet. Which means I have his secret. And he hates that. What started as a one-time thing has turned into something neither of us were ready for. And I’m not ready to let this wounded bully go.
