Between the Lines - by Haley Cass (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A steamy and emotionally resonant sapphic academic romance, from Haley Cass, bestselling self-published author of Those Who Wait, where slow-burn chemistry, witty banter, and emotional vulnerability collide as two lonely professors find connection, healing, and love in unexpected places.

When Alyssa Burke relocates to a small upstate New York college for a desperately desired faculty position, she expects uncertainty, but not to be dumped before her first day even begins.

Far from home and determined to prove she belongs in the ivory tower, Alyssa has no intention of letting heartbreak derail the future she's worked so hard to build.

She also has no intention of having a one-night-stand, but that goes out the window when she meets Whitney: brilliant, intimidating, impeccably composed, and in the middle of a divorce. Their instant chemistry leads to an unforgettable night that is supposed to end there.

That is until the semester begins and Alyssa discovers Whitney is Dr. Hart: her colleague and now her assigned faculty mentor. Even more complicated? Alyssa is filling the position vacated by Whitney's soon-to-be ex-husband.

What follows is a delicious slow-burn workplace romance, unfolding between stolen glances in hallways, whispered conversations, and the unspoken rules of academic life. As desire deepens and boundaries blur, both women must confront what they're willing to risk for their reputations, for honesty, and for one another.
