I have one job: Get close and take him out. The problem is, I want more. I was barely five when I lost my brother; seven when my father was murdered. Overnight, I was taken by my mysterious uncle, grafted into a world of crime I didn't understand and couldn't escape. The first ten years, I did my best to blend in. The next four, I reinvented myself, growing stronger, searching for answers. Now I have one assignment-take down the man who knows our secrets. Professor Dirk Winston is my target, and I'm expected to be a good soldier, disguised as a good student. Only he's not the passive bookworm I expect. He's intense hazel eyes, ultra controlled, and focused on his work. But I've got plans of my own, and this young professor is going to do more than fulfill my assignment. He's going to help me get revenge. (FORBIDDEN is a small-town, student-professor romance with secrets, lies, and a thrilling twist. No cheating. No cliffhanger.)
