Kendall’s story is here!

Kendall Devin is either too much or not enough—it depends on which of her recent boyfriends you ask. Fed up with relationships, she dives into the world of casual Tinder hook-ups instead. She’s horrified to discover the man she’s been sexting for the past week is the father of one of her kindergarteners.

Mason Reed recently gained full custody of his daughter, Finley, and moved back into his overbearing parents’ house. He has no time for relationships—and he especially doesn’t need any added drama in his or Finley’s lives. So while Kendall has caught his eye, he knows getting romantically involved with his daughter’s teacher is a bad idea. 

The two attempt to forget about their connection, but with Mason volunteering at school at every given opportunity, that proves to be difficult. Not even planning the school’s fall festival can distract Kendall from Mason’s flannel-wrapped charm. And the more they’re together, the harder it is for either of them to resist temptation.

Mason is the first man who makes Kendall truly feel seen, and he can’t stop imagining her becoming part of his family. To him, she’s perfect. But how could this possibly work?

Owen and Sarah, two fifth-grade teachers, have been working across the hall from one another for several years. They spend each morning commiserating over coffee at their classroom doors, craving each other's company as much as the caffeine in their mugs.

Their friendship, often teetering on the edge of something more, is complicated. Everybody seems to have an opinion about their closeness—from Sarah’s boyfriend, Eli, to meddling students trying to play matchmaker.

But nobody is as confused by their relationship as Sarah and Owen themselves.  This year, things start to get a little messy, forcing them to address their unspoken feelings once and for all.
