Description

Maddox Rodgers never wanted to be memorable.

At twenty-six, he's a brand-new English teacher at Cream City High, still figuring out lesson plans, classroom confidence, and how to survive school events that feel more like endurance tests than celebrations. Back-to-school night should've been simple—smiles, syllabi, and polite nods.

Until she stayed behind.

What follows is a night Maddox will never forget, one that blurs the line between fantasy and reality and leaves him questioning everything he thought he understood about professionalism, desire, and consequences. When rumors hit social media and the administration comes knocking, Maddox learns quickly that temptation doesn't end when the bell rings—and that some mistakes echo louder than others.

This is a sharp, funny, tension-filled romance about youth, ego, fantasy fulfilled, and the panic that comes when real life notices.
