BLURB:

Thomas Elder- When I took the position as vocal professor at Lakeview Unversity – I knew I was giving up my performing career. I loved being onstage, but I craved security, and not being broke – so I walked away from singing and into the not so fabulous world of being a college professor. I had finally setled in and was excited about my second year of teaching, when a jock with an attitude walked into my vocal studio. The thoughts running through my head were not the kind of thoughts that a professor should have. I don’t know whether I should fail him or kiss him! But the real question that’s haunting me – why can’t I get him out of my mind? It’s like he has some kind of power over me. I hope it’s not… No! It can’t be!

Darren Peterson- My friends think I’m crazy to switch my major to music. But they don’t understand that music is as much a part of me as being Lakeview’s star soccer player. I’m not going pro, and the last thing I want to do is be a coach. I like making music. I’ve been a DJ since high school and making my own mixes gives me a high unlike anything else. Except… My vocal teacher. He’s a total geek! He likes opera, and old classic books and film. I bet he’s never even seen a superhero movie. But I can’t stop wondering what my hands would feel like against his skin. I’m nowhere near ready to settle down, but the smell of him makes me question everything.

REVIEW:

I’m so glad I took a chance on this series. I am really enjoying these delightful novella. Three books/three authors/same characters in the Lakeview University universe.

Thomas Elder has given up his dream of making it as a professional opera singer. Working three minimum pay jobs to try to make ends meet he finally decided that he had to pursue his other degree option…teaching. He is now the vocal professor at small liberal arts college in Lakeview, Vermont Lakeview University. When the Dean comes in and makes a strange request his hackles raised a bit. He now has a second-year junior, who happens to be the captain of the soccer team and the son of one of their biggest benefactors. He needs to be in the vocal class and the Dean wants to make sure he does well. But the first meeting set all kinds of alarms off. Thomas can’t literally stay on his feet he is so affected by the Greek God. Darren Peterson always does what his parents say. Coming from such an influential family definitely has its drawbacks. Darren just wants to pursue his career mixing music and he’s good at it. He also knows his lawyer father will never stand for it. When he first meets the cute professor who literally fell at his feet he knew that his life just changed. Fated Mates are a real thing and he just met his! But how can he get his professor to accept what is pulling at them and just accept that they are meant to be?

This was a sweet, fast read and hit all my buttons. I love fated mate stories and Alpha/omega/mpreg books. I also love that the three professors were friends that looked out for each other and encouraged their friend to reach for what they had right in front of them. All three men got that you can’t just simply turn your back on your fated mate. You both suffer until you finally give in.
