Ten years after a smoldering kiss from her civics teacher, Shelley finds herself back in his classroom, college classroom that is. Recently divorced from the husband she nurtured and put through medical school, Shelley is starting over.

Also starting over is Grant Chapman, former high school civics teacher cum congressional aide, now college professor. He's trying to live down a Washington DC scandal involving the daughter of a senator. The last thing he needs in his life is the now grown up teenager that sent him running from Oklahoma to the nation's capital after an inappropriate kiss.

Despite trying to stay away from each other, they cannot, and Grant attempts to seduce her until she'll finally give in to their shared passion. Toss in more scandals, the unhappy college chancellor, and a host of old lovers, and is just adds more difficulties for the duo.

The material is really dated, but if you read the preface going in, you would know that. Yes, Grant had a hard time saying no, but back when this was written, it was still okay to slap women around in movies. Despite the "datedness," it's a compelling romance, which has you rooting for he charismatic leads right until the end. Repackaged as a classic love story under the author's real name (Sandra Brown) to capitalize on her later success in the romantic suspense genre.
