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.
Icebreaker
Same one-night-stand-turned-complicated setup in a college sports world, with forbidden tension""but it's a slower burn and softer on the age-gap angle.
Twisted Games
Another forbidden pairing with an age gap and a professional line neither should cross, but the burn is slower and the stakes royal rather than campus.
The Deal
Same college-athlete world and campus chemistry, though it swaps the professor taboo for a fake-dating bargain and carries heavier assault-related baggage.
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.
