She'll defy his every expectation. She’s Penna Carstairs. The Renegade they call Rebel. FMX-treme Magazine’s sexiest female athlete of the year. There’s no rule in extreme sports she hasn’t broken, No gender barrier she hasn’t demolished. She’s the woman I met in a bar in Vegas. The woman I illegally BASE jumped for. The woman I spent one insane, incredible night with. But now I’m screwed. Or rather…not screwed. Because the woman I can’t get out of my head is the one woman I can never touch again. I’m Dr. Cruz Delgado—the youngest professor on this campus, And Penelope Carstairs just walked into my class.

The Things We Leave Unfinished
Same author's emotional voice and second-chance workplace pairing, but a slower, grief-heavy dual-timeline story instead of adrenaline sports and quick heat.
Full Measures - Flight & Glory #1
Another Yarros new adult romance with an athlete hero and forced proximity, though the ache comes from military grief rather than forbidden professor territory.
The Love Hypothesis
Another campus power-imbalance romance with academic stakes and career risk, though it's lighter, funnier, and less explicit than the athlete-professor heat.
It Starts with Us
Another second-chance reunion with a hero who waited years, though it's far lower heat and centers on escaping an abusive ex rather than campus rule-breaking.
Red, White & Royal Blue
Keeps the can't-touch-him forbidden ache and secret-relationship stakes, but swaps extreme sports for political spotlight and turns the slow burn queer.
After You
Shares the second-chance pull toward a new love, but trades adrenaline sports and heat for quiet grief, found family, and a hopeful-not-tidy ending.
