A Mondez Novel, 1

High school teacher Grace Thompson didn’t want to be a mentor. And she sure as hell didn’t want to mentor Levi Mondez.

They got off to a rocky start, but it wasn’t entirely her fault. How was she to know he was the lead singer of local rock band, Mondez? How was she to know he considered her short temper a turn on? And how was she to know her best friend, Riley, would fall for him?

If he wasn’t so damn gorgeous it might have made the whole mess easier to handle. If he didn’t transform Grace into a blazing furnace of need, and if he hadn’t confused the hell out of her already bruised heart, life might have turned out a heck of a lot differently. She was screwed.


Excerpt:

We were alone.

Guess it had to happen sooner or later.

I took a deep breath and turned to face Levi. He hadn’t moved from behind the desk and was watching me closely with an unreadable expression on his face. Once again, I lost the power of speech. This was going to become a real problem over the next six weeks if I didn’t get a handle on it soon and I desperately hoped I wouldn’t have to resort to communicating with him in other ways … like through interpretive dance.

Levi slowly stood, never once breaking eye contact with me. He put his notebook and pen away in the leather satchel before swinging it over his shoulder and slowly making his way towards me.

I gulped.

This man held me completely spellbound by the intensity in his gaze. And if I didn’t do something in the next few seconds to break the magnetic pull between us, I would either internally combust or beg him to put me out of my misery.

“We, ah, should really be heading back.”

Genius. Pure genius, Grace.

He completely ignored me and stopped a few inches away before slowly leaning down to murmur in my ear. “You were amazing.”

My brow furrowed and I stepped back, staring squarely up at him. “I was helping students draft their work, Levi, not solving the world hunger crisis.”

“When are you going to learn to take a compliment, kitten?”

“At about the same time you stop giving them.”

He smiled down at me and a small grin played about the corner of my lips. Parrying with him was growing dangerously enjoyable. I quickly turned and grabbed my belongings from the spare desk I’d dumped them on at the start of the lesson.

“We should really be going. I’ve got a double free period next but we’ll probably need that time to clear out some desk space in my office and find you a chair.”

“Yeah, that might take a while.”

Look…” For some reason I felt the need to grow defensive over my non-existent organizational habits. Don’t ask me why. “I wasn’t exactly expecting to have a student teacher when I first arrived at school today, okay? And I sure as hell wasn’t ready for it to be you, so just—” I paused mid-sentence. Levi’s face broke into a grin of swoon-worthy proportions and I was having a hard time remembering where I was going with my rant.

He stepped towards me again and this time I didn’t move back. I mean, I honestly didn’t trust my legs with any given movement. So I also didn’t stop Levi as he gently brushed the backs of his fingers down the side of my face before tucking a stray strand of hair behind my ear. “Relax, kitten,” he all but purred.

Easy for him to say, he wasn’t the one currently fighting a losing battle against gravity.

“We’ll get it sorted out. There’s no need to get your panties in a twist.”

My eyes popped open in shock. “Don’t think for one second that you’re having any effect whatsoever on my panties,” I growled out.

Liar.

He just grinned wider and brushed his thumb across my bottom lip.

I couldn’t help myself. I opened my mouth and bit down on it.

Levi inhaled sharply from my involuntary assault and his pupils dilated to an alarming degree.

Fuck.

What was I doing?

So, before Teacher Grace could appear and cane my sordid ass, I released his thumb from between my teeth, spun on my heel and wrenched the door open. To say I essentially bolted back to my office would not have been an understatement. And to be blunt, I honestly didn’t give a shit if Levi followed me or if he got lost along the way.

Long and Short LASR
Written by Bittersweet on 15th Dec 2017

Lee Piper has done it again. Once I started reading Rock My World, I couldn’t put it down and binge read the whole novel. Once more, I finished with a deep sense of satisfaction and my own heart beating triple its rate. And that’s because, again, I fell in love, but this time with Levi Mondez. The story is told from Grace’s point of view in the first person and everything she felt and saw, I did with her. It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions. The only thing I didn’t like was the amount of alcohol she drank, which at times seemed excessive and worrisome. The writing was flawless and Piper masters the art of building the romance and the heat between Levi and Grace. Furthermore, though the characters fall in love fast their connection felt plausible and real. All in all, this is a must read and I’ll be desperately waiting for the rest of the series to come out!

Grace is my hero
Written by Neets on 16th Apr 2017

I've never read a character like Grace before and I loved her! A great mix of humour, sarcasm, strength and a little bit of crazy that we all have within us. Mixing Grace with a sexy leading man made for a great read. I can't wait for book #2 from Lee Piper!

A Great Read
Written by undefined on 15th Jan 2017

The story was well paced and I was quickly caught up in the storyline. Th fact that Lee illistrated her characters so realisticly made it a riveting read. The main character Grace is a little flawed although very feisty and insure. I love the author ability to give the character a sense of humor and ability to make fun of herself. While working through so many issues in her life. Levi seems to be every girls dream. For a first book from this author, I just have to say, Great Work!! I notice from Lee Piper's web site there are more books to come in this series. Can't wait for the next book to see how this series evolves.

5/5
