I should absolutely, under no circumstance develop a crush on my co-worker--the grumpy, wolf-daddy, much older high school baseball coach.
First problem? He's twenty years older than me. Second? I've never even been kissed. Third? When I ask him to teach me, he says yes.
In my defense, Grey Brooks is a great coach. As an elementary school librarian, I know more about books than swinging hammers or baseball bats. I thought I was a lost cause, but from showing me how to throw a baseball to fixing up my rickety old house, all he does is teach me. And somewhere between the lessons and the laughter, we become friends. So asking him to teach me to kiss...etc, just makes sense. Right? Right??
He makes rules. Keep it casual. Keep it secret. Keep the feels in check.
But in a small town where everyone's watching, nothing stays secret for long. Every rule we break blurs the line between lessons and love, the rumors are getting louder, and Grey thinks he's going to ruin me.
He might be right. But not for the reasons he thinks.
Because there's more than gossip hiding in Roseville. And by the time I see the danger coming, the only person who can save me is the one everyone tells me to stay away from.
