Description
The BRAND NEW pulse-pounding psychological thriller from BESTSELLER M. A. Hunter. ????It's always a risk when you go searching for trouble, because sometimes trouble will hunt you back.
I never thought I'd come back here... to this island. To this school...
As a student, Meridian Secondary nearly destroyed me, and I've been running from the truth for nearly twenty years. But I'm not that love-sick teacher's pet anymore; now I'm the one in charge, and I'll do anything to keep my true identity buried.
No one knows how far I went - we went - for love... ????
THE TEACHER'S PET is a dual timeline psychological thriller perfect for fans of Dorothy Koomson and TM Logan.
