Shock widened his eyes, starbursts of anger for what I'd done. That moment should have been the last of us; our beginning and end. Fate, it seems, had other plans.
A dedicated musician, Lennon would become my mentor, my shadow, my protector and nightmare.
We were two discordant notes that somehow blended with perfect harmony.

âWho are you, Amelia Dillon?â
Confusion flooded me. âWhat?â
It bothered me how my question came out more as a startled squeak than a word.
He grinned, just the corner of his lips curling with lazy satisfaction. Reaching out with his free hand, he trapped my chin between his fingers, holding my gaze to his without concern that I hadnât invited the touch. Electricity sparked where his skin met mine, my head dizzy, my breath as uneven as my heartbeat.
âWho are you?â
My heart was in my throat, beating staccato so hard that I swore I was a few seconds from passing out. âI donât-â
The gentle tone of his voice was at odds with his question. âAre you the shitty little thief hiding in a hoodie and baggy jeans? Or are you a musician who demands respect based on her talent and discipline?â
He was enjoying this moment far too much, the truth of his amusement written in the line of his lips, the sleepy look in his blue eyes. It only frightened me more.
âIâm a musician,â I whispered.
Mr. Carter leaned forward and I panicked, my eyes locked to his lips. He shouldnât have been this close to me. There had to be rules against this. He didnât seem to care.
I wasnât a girl to be pushed around or controlled. Yet, in his presence, I stilled in place, unable to find the willpower to fight or move away.
Breath hot against my cheek, he whispered, âI donât think you are. I think a musician would know better than to risk her hands acting like a stupid hoodrat that robs people. I think a musician knows better than to question the man who will be judging her performance. I think-â
My lips parted on a tremulous breath.
â-you didnât believe me when I warned you I would spank your ass red if I ever caught you doing something so stupid again.â
There was no question about it; I was three seconds away from passing out.
He knew it and I knew it, his blue eyes locked to mine when he warned, âYou should know that threat extends to you questioning me in class as well.â
![]() Brittany's rating: 5 of 5 stars I will always love anything that Lily White writes, particularly her dark stuff. This, however, isn't dark, but it is taboo. It's about a piano student and her piano teacher, which I really liked, since I was a music student. Despite this book having a musical subject, someone that has never studied music will be able to understand this book with no problems. Lily doesn't use any musical terms that aren't widely known and also lists all the pieces she references at the beginning of the book for readers to listen to ahead of time. I really like Lennon's character. He's unique, particularly in the way he dresses. He's not clean cut or tattooed and bearded. He's an attractive man that can't match his clothes for shit. Very unique and unlike any male character I have read before. And Amelia is, of course, the stereotypical virgin (but not for long!) and ends up falling for her teacher that likes his sex with a bit of kink. This book is a good one, and like every other Lily White book that I've read, it's five stars! View all my reviews ![]()
