Abbott Elementary meets Ali Hazelwood in this spicy rivals-to-lovers rom-com starring two kindergarten teachers whose one night stand leads to an unexpected nine-month lesson in love.
Quirky, free-spirited Valerie Marquez likes to make sure her kindergarten class has fun while learning. Uptight, by-the-book Andrew Wexler is allergic to fun, and loud music gives him a migraine, which makes sharing a wall with the other kindergarten teacher who loves to blast music all day his worst nightmare.
But during the end-of the school year party, their shared tension morphs into a night of wild sex. What neither expected was the surprise consequence of that night.
A baby.
And, if sharing a wall with her nemesis was hard, sharing a classroom with him, while she’s feeling hormonal and hungry, is much harder. Turns out that co-teaching isn’t the hardest thing they’ll have to overcome. Trying not to fall in love with her baby daddy is much harder.
Just in time for the back-to-school frenzy comes a delightful romantic comedy featuring two warring kindergarten teachers in an epic clash of enemies-to-lovers.
Valerie Marquez and Andrew Wexler may both teach kindergarten at Gables Preparatory Academy, but that is where the similarity ends. Valerie oozes energy, much like her students. On the other hand, Andrew is much more structured and has little patience for Valerie’s quirkiness.
Author Sidney Halston delivers a delightful story in Love Lessons of two people who walk that thin line between love and hate. Between the snark and the petty arguments, the sparks fly, even requiring a trip to the principal’s office.
It’s not until they are united by a common cause that Valerie and Andrew become students themselves as they learn about love. It’s such a fun story that will spark memories of our own kindergarten days. With glitter, paint, and even hamsters, the battle lines are drawn.
Love Lessons hits the spot with engaging characters who are bound together by duty that morphs into something much bigger.
