Loving Mr. Daniels by Brittainy C. Cherry

4.0

---

I’m not normally a fan of taboo romances involving a teacher and a student. As someone who taught high school and who has nieces and nephews of that age, I know that they are (and should be) anything but sexy (to adults) at that age. Cherry did an excellent job of addressing the issue by making her character 19 years old (held back due to a childhood illness) and the teacher 3 years her senior. Furthermore, she had them meet (and feel initial attraction) outside of the classroom (before they knew he would be her teacher), removing the creepy power imbalance element.
