In 1900 Victorian St. Louis, a romance between a young college student and her former high school teacher is not only forbidden-it is considered scandalous! Yet that is exactly what happens to Erin McLAughlin and Tim Sheehan. They continue their romance under the cloud of being discovered which could mean expulsion for her or loss of tenure for him, and it takes them through many twists and turns that lead them to a genuine western adventure-and eventually home to St. Louis. How all this affects their friends and families and their own futures as teachers makes for an exciting and fascinating read. If you have ever loved a teacher, you won't want to miss this one! It is something that will remain forever in your heart!
