Shen made Jaime the instigator of his taboo relationship with Melody. Thus, I find Melody and Jaime Followhill’s story hot, sexy, wonky, risky, crazy, and romantic all at the same time.

Greene had the presence of mind and a ton of personal ethics not to go after her student before he turned legal (and she was romantically unattached to anyone else). They’ve had sparks going on between them for quite some time already, but thank goodness Ms. “Defy,” though? It stars an 18-year-old boy/man who sets out to seduce his high school English Lit teacher, Ms. I put her current husband in the same category. A female at that! IMO, she’s not right in the head. MKL is the face of a convicted child rapist.

It’s very reminiscent of Mary Kay Letorneau, except it’s not as vomit-inducing. That’s when I pounced and savored both books.įirst, let me tackle “Defy.” I’ll kid you not. And waited, until “Defy” was released independently on January 31st, 2017. I tried to buy the anthology where it was originally published – something called Hot Teachers – but I couldn’t find it anywhere. However, I didn’t get into it as I was still sloooooowly ploughing thru my backlog of TBR books, and the next thing I knew, “Defy” was being advertised EVERYFREAKINWHERE I go. I bought “Vicious” last year when I first read another blogger’s review for it. And, now, ladies (and gentlemen, if you’re out there reading this), I died. I just finished two books consecutively, Defy and Vicious by LJ Shen.
