However, Gabriel doesn't even really remember that night, he believes that she was a dream or an Angel sent to him his drug induced hallucination' since she was gone when he returned after waking up earlier than her.

They spent a wonderful night together, without any sexual contact besides kissing, and she has pretty much compared every other guy in her life to him and that one night. Julia has been in love with Gabriel since she was 17, even before she actually met him. The story slowly progresses from there and while Gabriel is a royal pain to Julia for most of the first half of the book, he soon realizes why she keeps coming back. We meet Paul a fellow student and he tries to make Julia laugh after her 'dressing down' from Professor Emerson. He seems to belittle Julia at first, which made me almost put the book down, but I stuck with it, knowing that something good had to come from it. Gabriel Emerson is a 30ish Professor that while extremely sexy, from just his description alone, is kind of an ass. I was immedietly sucked in on the first page, Julia is a college student and while you really want to hate Professor Emerson in the beginning, he does redeem himself early on. Although the book has been labeled as Erotic Romance, it was tastefully done and left me fanning myself even though the only 'real' sex was at the end of the book. Going in I will say that I have not read any other reviews on this book and requested it based on the summary alone.
