Publisher's summary

“The madness of love is the greatest of heaven’s blessings.”—Plato

Day one of senior year at Denwin High was not supposed to end with my thoughts consumed by the new AP Philosophy teacher. I’d impatiently waited three years to take the course, but from the moment he strode in with his sad eyes that mirrored my own, I was intrigued by only him.

Dr. Sebastian Wicked.

Intrigue turned into obsession, and common interests set the stage for a tentative friendship with the enigmatic man. In time, every line became blurred as what we shared sparked the flames of a forbidden affair: an affair that should've never been, a wrong that the universe sought to right.

There was only one possible outcome—we were both going to burn. Would our love rise up from the ashes? Or would it smolder in the ruins?

My name is Phoenix Michaelson, and I am the boy who loved Wicked.

Wicked

Another amazing story by C.P. Harris and stellar performance by Liam Dicosimo and Tim Paige! I truly felt the love, pain, and happiness throughout this book and loved every minute of it!

Sebastian & Phoenix 😍

This was another great read by this author. I love both MCs; their story of growth, and their passion for each other. The epilogues were great. The narration was spot on with all the feels.

Angst fueled love story

Angst fueled love story with flawed but endearing characters. This story hit me in the feels.

BEAUTIFUL STORY

one of my favorite authors, i cry every time i read one of his books and this was my first time listening to one and it did not disappoint <3

Loved it!

Great, forbidden love story with a wonderful arc and well-developed characters. the spice is nice too ;)

Right person, Wrong time

This story was a passionate sucker punch. I had read the reviews before purchasing and thought I'd been prepared for the emotional onslaught. I was mistaken.
The range of emotions I felt while listening/reading this book was dizzying. Anger, frustration, confusion were mixed in with the hope, love and longing.
This is, without a doubt, the best 'Right person, wrong time' book. I don't usually like this type of story (second chance romance), but I can appreciate a beautifully written one. This author is new to me, but I will definitely be looking at more from them.
The narration was wonderful. I adore both narrators and they did a fantastic job bringing the characters to life.

Taboo MM Romance

This is a high angst MM romance that should definitely be considered taboo due to the teacher/high school student relationship. Even though Phoenix is 18 when they become romantically and sexually involved, he’s still Wicked’s student and living at home with his mom. That made it difficult for me to really get into the story. By the end, I understood the characters, their motivations, and their love for each other and ended up liking their story more than not. I am a big fan of C.P. Harris. She has a talent for writing so beautifully about difficult relationships and circumstances, and this book is certainly no different. I think it’s worth reading and makes for some great philosophical discussions.

Wow

This was a beautiful love story about obsession and growth. I loved Sebastian and I also loved Phoenix I highly recommend.!!!

Pass Fail

High marks for the storyline and subject matter. The dialogue seemed uneven in parts; as if the book had two authors. The narrator who voiced Phoenix gave an outstanding performance, but the performance of the narrator who voiced Sebastian sounded odd, partly due to clunky dialogue, so I was disappointed in that performance. Overall, I enjoyed listening to this book.
