Ancient desire burns through modern propriety.
Professor Julian Ashcroft has built his career on careful restraint and classical scholarship. One student will destroy everything he's constructed.
Nicholas Harrington arrives late to Julian's lecture on Sappho—aristocratic, beautiful, and utterly unafraid. Their discussion of Fragment 31's overwhelming desire becomes something far more dangerous than academic discourse. Nicholas sees what Julian hides. Worse, he wants it.
What starts with locked office doors and forbidden Greek manuscripts spirals into reckless obsession. Every touch risks the noose. Every stolen moment could mean ruin. And Nicholas, heir to an earldom, has the power to destroy Julian with a single word—yet he's the one begging to be taken.
The college walls have eyes. When they're discovered, Julian loses his position, his reputation, his entire world. Exiled and penniless, he washes up on distant shores, trading what's left of himself for survival.
But there, Julian will learn that some passions don't ask permission.
They conquer. They consume. They remake you entirely.
