Falling for your boss is never a good idea. Especially when he’s Theodore Wright—the stern, unbearably handsome headmaster of the prestigious Wetherly Prep, where I teach third grade.

I’m determined to make my mark here, and the fall fundraiser is my ticket. Even if it means working one-on-one with the most intimidating man I’ve ever met.

The man I can’t stop thinking about in all the ways I shouldn’t…

I have one rule: protect Wetherly at all costs. After a scandal rocked the school last year, I can’t afford another mistake.

Then Eleanor Hart arrives, a whirlwind of color and ideas who threatens to unravel my careful sense of order and control. She’s twenty years my junior, brilliant, and utterly irresistible.

Getting involved with a teacher could destroy everything I’ve built, yet the harder she pushes, the more I want to let her in.

We both know this is dangerous, but when the chemistry between us ignites, the only thing more terrifying than falling for her... is walking away.

Tropes:
Spicy, forbidden romance
Age gap (she’s 27, he’s 47)
Boss/employee
Headmaster & new teacher
Silver fox in a suit
Grump & sunshine
Back to school/fall vibes
Yes, sir
