4.75 stars  rounded up because I'm still reeling from that one office encounter.Hell yes, History tutoring has never been more interesting!This time around Heidi Belleau and Amelia C. Gormley show us how James Sheridan from Giving an Inch came to be under Professor Carson's tutelage.And what a show that was!From the start I could feel the undercurrent of attraction between James and Carson. Even underneath James' hesitations I could feel how much he needed to be guided. He craved it and it confused the hell out of him.Just as clearly, I could feel Carson's desire to make James give into him. Underneath all that cool demeanor, the man lusted after James. Hell, that part where he unleashed all that pent up lust on poor James...Shoot, got side-tracked.Hmmm, ah yes, the story.It was interesting to see how it all began between James and Carson. Now I see why James was putting up boundaries in the previous installment when he inadvertently reconnected with Carson. Poor James, he becomes putty under Carson's ruler!The writing was superb and just as I expected. With just 60 pages to the story, Heidi Belleau and Amelia C. Gormley packed one hell of a punch and didn't disappoint in the least. With hotter-than-hell scenes that had me encouraging James to answer wrong and one un-freaking-believable student/teacher meeting, these author brought one extremely enticing story to the page.But if that were all, I don't think I would have been so pleased with it. Yes, they delivered on that erotic aspect of the story, but yet they went deeper. They also gave insight into James' history. And THAT and Carson's reaction to it was what made a difference to me. That's what made it an extraordinary story. That little bit of vulnerability and humanity they brought out of both James and Carson was what made this an fantastic read for me.An Inch at a Time is the second book in the The Professor's Rule series and although it can certainly be read as a stand alone I encourage you to pick up a copy of Giving an Inch. You won't be disappointed, I assure you!I received this title through NetGalley in exchange of my honest opinion.
