NEW YORK TIMES bestselling author Kathryn Shay writes fascinating, realistic contemporary romances. Her specialty is troubled teenagers. A teacher in a public school for years, she knows kids and the men and women who teach them, as evidenced by this new book in the Bayview Heights series!

Joe Taylor has followed in his father's footsteps. A former journalist, he switches careers and becomes a high school teacher, just like Seth. He also loses his wife and is left a single father. When he returns to Bayview Heights to live and work, he settles in a wing of his family's home. He has great childcare, is surrounded by unconditional support and a job he adores. But something's missing. It's time to move on.

Juliet Mason returns to Bayview Heights High School to teach in the English Department. She left her job to have a baby five years ago and help her husband with his career as a U.S. Congressman. When she meets Joe, she sees a gentle, tender man who loves deeply. But because she's married, they maintain a collegial relationship. Until her secret is revealed...

The world of education and politics clash in this story of love and hope when Joe realizes that Juliet needs rescuing... and he's the man to do it, even if Juliet has other ideas.
