In this searing tale of forbidden student-teacher passion, young Allison has it bad for Ken, her teacher: her Romeo. What if Romeo were more than twice Juliet's age - and her teacher? Would that have made a difference?

Allison tries to find another leading man, but ends up being drawn back to the first person who ever inspired her to real, undeniable desire. How can this Juliet convince her much-older Romeo to take her innocence? How can she convince him that, girl though she still is, she is ready to become a woman?
