 I may have liked this even more than Chase Me, but it's hard to too. Even though student/teacher romances are a subgenre I generally avoid, because I loved the Supergroup that was bound to form between Roxy and Louis's friends I was willing to dive in and look past my usual hang-ups. And I'm so glad I did. 
 I love Ben. Nerdy, tweed wearing professor, he lives with a set of rigid rules to avoid the weakness that proved the undoing and downfall of his famous father. 
 Honey is fresh off her family's Kentucky farm. She landed in New York, completely changing the pace of her life to study pre-med in the big city. A natural caretaker, she quickly became the cook for her roommates. 
 When Honey decides to seduce her English professor to scratch the itch of attraction she feels, she has no idea her professor is the best friend of her roommates' new boyfriend. 
 When the connection is made, both must tread carefully as there is a lot on the line. His job, her education, and the friendships they have both come to rely on. 
 Need Me has everything one expects from a student/teacher romance, and oh did it hurt to watch things collapse around Ben and Honey. Having seen the connection between them, and the progress they had been making. Neither was blind to the taboo of their relationship, but both opted to feel what was between them rather than ignore it. 
 Louis, Roxy, Russell, and Abby are all present for much of the rise and fall of these two. As roommates and best friends, this group of 6 are closer than casual friends but, at least for the women, are still new enough in their friendship that they are still wading through where the boundaries lie. Except this time, they will all push each other's boundaries to help each other find happiness. And with the hints dropped, I am looking forward to Abby and Russell's story. 
 I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review.
