BLURB:

I just wanted a fresh start.
What I got was a shirtless single dad next door, a giant spider, and a very inconvenient crush.

I’m Chessy Scott, kindergarten teacher, new-in-town introvert, and secret expert at falling for emotionally unavailable men. So naturally, the hot guy next door checks every single box.

He’s a single dad.
He’s grumpy.
And—plot twist—he’s also the father of one of my students.

Cue internal screaming.

I try to keep things professional, I really do. But then one night, a giant spider invades my shower, and who comes running to my rescue with an axe in hand and no shirt on? That’s right. Mr. Too-Hot-to-Handle himself.

Now we’re texting. Talking. Flirting.
And falling.

But there’s a catch. A big one.
His ex-wife?
She’s my boss. As in, the 
principal of my school.

If this secret relationship gets out, I could lose everything I’ve worked for.
But when he looks at me like I’m the one thing holding his world together, I start to wonder…

Is love really worth risking it all?
