Getting Schooled

(2025)
A Story by

 
 
Rafael

As principal, my schedule is chock full of mentoring students, coffee (obviously), and butting heads with construction worker Clint. His laid-back parenting style for his detention-prone nephew is making my job extra difficult. And it doesn’t help that whenever he comes in for a meeting, I imagine him grinding me like a pencil sharpener.

The highlight of my day is talking to Mr. Appleseed, my email pen pal. With each message, he worms his way closer to my heart. Is this a one-sided love connection destined for another heartbreak?

Clint

One day, I’m chugging along as a lifelong bachelor. The next, I’m an instant parent to my nephew after my sister unexpectedly dies. He’s hurting, and I can’t do anything right. The last thing I need is for some fancy-pants principal to remind me that I’m floundering in my new role.

At least I have CactiGuy. He’s the one person in this world I can truly confide in, the one person who makes me believe I can do this dad thing.

But now he wants to meet. Will he like the man behind Mr. Appleseed?

Getting Schooled is a sexy, sweet novella containing all your enemies-to-lovers, single dad, anonymous pen pal vibes…plus an apple tree, cacti, and karaoke machine to keep things interesting. It’s a prequel to the South Rock High series, but can be enjoyed on its own.
