Publisher's summary

Don't fall in love. Hide, and you'll make it through.

The last thing on Esther Dunja's mind is falling in love. Her goal is to keep her head down and slide through the next twelve years until her son graduates. After being run out of the last school she taught at by her ex, Esther needs to make this new teaching job work. It's her last chance to retain custody. The problem is she never anticipated falling for her son's kindergarten teacher.

Melanie Przybyla is a single mom to four grown kids, and she finally has time for herself—or so she thought. With family drama on the rise and a new teacher in her school that she can't stop thinking about, Melanie comes to a startling realization: She's attracted to women. She just has to figure out why Esther Dunja is so terrified and how she can date her student's mom.

When conflicts of interest abound, Melanie and Esther have to navigate what they're willing to risk to let their love blossom.

Loved this book

This is a great cooperation between a writer and two narrators, it is the third book in the pack and I already preordered the forthcoming one. I really enjoy the story line and the MC of this book, just as the former ones. And both narrators are excellent.

Younger ice queen. Or is she?

The complexities of a younger ice queen, means she's not as icy as she appears. I think Esther is a very interesting character and she has a lot of chemistry with Melanie. There are a few issues with Esther being a little too neurotic here or there, but the situation she finds herself in and her backstory really informs it, so it is never out of character.

I really enjoyed the dual narration. I think it added so much to the story. I think just reading it would be a poorer experience which is not something I usually think with books.

Absolutely beautiful

This is a really great book! I love when there’s more than one narrator, this pair worked beautifully together. I won’t spoil the book for you, but all I can say is you definitely wouldn’t wanna read this one.

Hang in there…

Great having the two narrator’s give life to these characters, The build up is sappy and drawn out but doesn’t disappoint. Great character development; making the wait worth it.

Love You Through It

This book centers on the relationship between two woman with an age gap that find each other. One trapped in a life that has her locked in anxiety day in and day out. The other gifted with a personality and heart that fit the other woman’s heart and soul.

I would have loved to have gotten more information about the end but overall it was well written and narrated extremely well.

Family at heart

I truly enjoyed the story. My sister has an amazing child, whose father was a “Skip”. The fear, anxiety and difficulties related in this book were spot on. My niece is now a wonderful woman with great love and admiration for her mom. Narration was good.
