Between Her and Me by delly M. Elrose

Two girls. Two women. And too many secrets to survive the school year. In the small town of Edenridge, nothing stays private for long—especially at Hartmoor College, a prestigious all-girls institution where appearances matter and reputations are everything. Seventeen-year-old Ember Rowe isn’t looking for trouble—just love, validation, and maybe someone to understand her. She finds that in Calla Whitmore, her bright, tomboyish classmate who’s fearless with her heart. But when Ember’s Literature professor, the icy and enigmatic Dr. Vera Lennox, begins to take an interest in more than just Ember’s writing… the lines between mentorship and desire blur. Unbeknownst to Ember, Vera has a secret: she’s already entangled with Marla Rowe, Ember’s glamorous, tightly wound mother, who thinks she’s being seduced… but is really just being used. Used to get closer to Ember. And it’s working. Between school hallways, late-night study sessions, and stolen glances at the Rowe household—where Ember lives with her eccentric little brother and secretive older sister—desire builds. Loyalties fracture. And no one walks away untouched. Some love stories break rules. This one burns them down.
