Summary

Within hours of giving birth to her sixth child, Mary Kay Letourneau had her baby daughter whisked from her arms. She was then shackled and returned to her jail cell. Just years before, the pretty, personable Seattle schoolteacher was living a life many would envy - she had a handsome husband, four beautiful children, and a beloved following of students. Then she was accused of raping one of her students, and her whole world turned upside down.

Was she a rapist or a victim? How did a 34-year-old married teacher fall in love with one of her sixth grade students? Was it a complete lapse of judgment, or - as she contends - the meeting of two soul mates? Were the two planning on running away together, before police caught them in a parked car? Did the couple have illicit sex in every room of the Letourneau house, as the teenager told the tabloids?

Listen and learn about the case that shocked the world and rocked the headlines - about the lonely life of Mary Kay Letourneau and the young object of her obsession, the boy who fathered two of her children. You may think you know the story of Mary Kay Letourneau - but you don't know the whole story until you've heard If Loving You is Wrong.

Includes interviews with Mary Kay Letourneau.

Took too long to get to the story

I didn't enjoy this. Too much padding for my liking. Might be to other people's taste but not mine

The affection the Greg Olsen had for Mary Kay, The love story that developed between teacher and pupil, despite the scandal.

I developed a better understanding about Mary Kay, her motivation and perspective, despite the nature of her crime.

Not my favourite Olsen book, but interesting

Not one of my favourite Olsen books, but it was well written and performed. The story is interesting but fails to really get under the skin of Mary K for me.
