Loved it but it went on far too long. It's more of an Adventure than a Romance (in fact it's arguably not a Romance at all).

The hero is almost the inverse of a conventional romantic hero - he's slight, frail and of a very gentle disposition. However

Quotes by Noël Cades  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“It was unwise for a woman to trust a man too far, for it was never the men who suffered the consequences.”
Noël Cades, The Substitute Bride

“Love is not to alter, but to accept.”
Noël Cades, Teaching His Ward

“Nothing, absolutely nothing, could have prepared Jemima for such a man as stood before her now. Nor her reaction to him that seemed to overtake her whole body.

He was tall and broad shouldered, with exquisitely cut clothes moulded to his athletic form. His hair was jet black with no streak of silver, though Jemima could not discern the colour of his eyes in the candlelight. His features were impossibly handsome, chiselled as though by a Greek sculptor.”
Noël Cades, Teaching His Ward

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife.”
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

Aayesha Thanks for the friendvite! Impressive to see you're an author! :D

I've always aspired to be one (I've written a few things on the side as well), but med school takes up ALL my time - I haven't read a book in forever *wails*


Christina Azalea Hello and thank you for the request. And yes i am very interested in receiving a free copy from you :-)

Thanks! And please do recommend me any good ones you've read, I love reading them as well as writing them!


message 10: by Noël

Noël Cades Oh yes I've read "Taming the Beast" - it is extremely dark. A great read, but certainly not a cosy romance/HEA. Very fascinating and realistic though.


message 9: by Cam *tactile seeker* (last edited Apr 28, 2015 06:05AM)

Cam *tactile seeker* Actually, I haven't read any other book I've won yet, except for "The Yearning", but I've heard that Taming the Beast is pretty dark and beautifully-written


message 8: by Noël

Noël Cades I've also read Unteachable which was a pretty fascinating read. Were there any other good student-teacher romances you would recommend from the bundle you got?


message 7: by Cam *tactile seeker* (last edited Apr 28, 2015 12:21AM)

Cam *tactile seeker* Oh, yes! Thank you, I loved the writing in that book. It was pure beauty. Too bad I basically disliked everything the MC did. The Yearning actually came to me with a bunch of other books I'd won in a contest.
Author Leah Raeder did it and they all were books about teacher-student relationship, because she loved it. She wrote a book, Unteachable by Leah Raeder about that, too.


message 6: by Noël

Noël Cades Your review of The Yearning, it was a really in depth, interesting review.


Cam *tactile seeker* Hi Noël, thank you for the friend request! Which book was it, exactly?


MELISSA *Mel Reader* Thanks for the friend vite Noel! :))


message 3: by Noël

Noël Cades Thank you! Hoping we can find lots more great books between us!


message 2: by Noël

Noël Cades Thanks! If and when you're accepting new books just let me know and I'll send you a copy!


Tracey Hey Noël, thanks so much for the friend invite!! Forbidden Lessons sounds awesome!! :)
