Rival

This book is #2, in the Friend Zone series.  This book can be read as a standalone novel.  To avoid spoilers, and have a better understanding of the series, I recommend reading it in order.

Layla has been competing with Dash for many years.  Suddenly he is her instructor for a college course.  Under other circumstances she may have had an alternative but this is forced upon her to graduate.

Dash has been attracted to Layla for some time.  Her being upset and angry - he finds it hot.  As her teacher he can't do anything about it.  Not that she would let him.  Only time will tell now.

This was kind of a punch to the gut right from the start.  Everything happened so fast for the characters.  The sparks are definitely flying.  The series continues with some heat and angst.  I give this a 3/5 Kitty's Paws UP!
