TEACH ME (Hearts on the Edge #2)
LAURA EDITH CORRAL
How far would you go to save a stranger?
What if that stranger is your best friend's brother?
Federico is a man who prefers life on the fringes: dive bars, endless nights, and chosen solitude. Everything changes one dawn when, acting on instinct, he intervenes to rescue a drunk young man from being mugged in a dark alley. What he doesn't know is that this disoriented and vulnerable boy is Arón, the younger brother of Tomás, his best—and perhaps only—friend.
Unable to leave him on the street, Federico takes him to his apartment, an orderly and cold space that suddenly fills with an uncomfortable and revealing presence. Arón isn't just a naive college student: he's a magnet for trouble, with green eyes that reflect an innocence the city is eager to devour.
What begins as an act of responsibility—an unwanted burden—becomes something deeper when, a week later, Arón appears as the new intern at his office. The tension becomes palpable, their shared secret binds them together, and in a moment of vulnerability, Arón confesses his greatest insecurity: he doesn't know how to navigate the world of affection, desire, intimacy.
Federico, driven by protective instinct—or perhaps something darker—agrees to teach him. He'll give him lessons in safety, confidence… in how to kiss. But when theory becomes practice, the line between mentor and man, between protection and desire, vanishes in a kiss charged with electricity and guilt.
An intense story about second chances, betrayed loyalties, and the dangerous line between saving someone and losing yourself in the process.
Set in a city that breathes indifference, this seductive and emotionally addictive narrative explores the price of responsibility, forbidden attraction, and the ghosts that emerge when past and present collide in the shadows of an alley.
Can Federico protect Arón from the world without crossing the line that separates him from Tomás? Or will he end up becoming another dangerous shadow in the boy's life?
Perfect for readers of contemporary romance, psychological drama, and LGBTQ+ narratives with complex characters, emotional tension, and a relentless pace.
