Hugo Awards Best

Nora Delmas, 21 ans, étudiante en master de lettres, dissimule derrière son calme une obsession grandissante pour son professeur de théorie littéraire, Hugo Vanel, 42 ans, un homme à la beauté grave, à la voix posée et au regard troublant. Chaque cours devient pour elle un terrain de jeu silencieux : elle veut l’atteindre, le faire craquer, le posséder. Elle n’en fait jamais trop, mais toujours assez : une jupe trop courte pour être anodine, un regard qui dure une seconde de trop, des réponses brillamment construites en cours pour capter son attention. Hugo, lucide, devine le piège. Il tente de garder ses distances, mais la faille s’ouvre peu à peu. Un soir, dans son bureau, sous le prétexte d’un rendez-vous pour discuter de son mémoire, tout dérape. L’intellect s’efface, le silence devient dense. Un souffle. Un regard. Et l’interdit est franchi. S’ouvre alors une relation secrète, sensuelle et dangereuse, entre corridors vides, escaliers dérobés et chambres d’hôtel éloignées du campus. Mais Nora veut plus. Et Hugo le sait. Car les rumeurs naissent vite, dans les couloirs d’une faculté où tout se sait sans jamais se dire...

Winner of The People Choice Awards (Fiction) 2019 for Best Diverse Books When "Gossip " meets "Pretty Little Liars" and had a kid with "Sherlock Holmes". That kid is "The Bad Nerd Boy". "You know my secret now. That's really bad, Summers." He smirked. That nerd smirked! And call me crazy but at this moment, he looked goddamn hot.      "I won't tell others." I blurted the words out, hoping it gave the assurance he needed so he would let me go because even though he looked damn hot, he also looked dangerous. Trying to stop myself from trembling, I bit my lips.  His eyes caught the movement and he bent forward, filling my nostrils with the smell of dope he smoked earlier. Tilting his head, he clicked his tongue and smiled. "Wrong move." With that, he slammed his lips against mine, knocking all the air from my lungs. He kissed me with no mercy. His tongue slipped at the seam of my mouth, and my mind went blank when I felt the tip of his tongue caressing mine. Pulling away he watched me with a mischievous look on his face as he said, "now I'm going to be yours." * * * Professionally edited by Fernanda Lemos. All Rights Reserved 2018 © agatharoza
