Private Lessons

Professor Andrew Everest's quiet strength, distinguished gallantry and dashing good looks draw Carrie like a flower to sunlight. Her uninhibited spirit and celebration of life fire Andrew's passion. Though their marriage shocks their friends and defies family convention, the newlyweds are blissfully unconcerned.

Rumbles of disapproval become thunderclaps of outrage when Carrie's women's group challenges the college's tradition-bound tenure system. Suddenly Andrew's career is at stake, husband is pitted against wife, and chaos reigns both on campus...and in the most intimate corners of their lives!
