From Wall Street Journal bestselling author Devney Perry comes a new story in her Maysen Jar series…

Dear Diary,

My dad needs a girlfriend, and I’ve already picked her out.

Miss Adler would be perfect for him, right? She’s super pretty. She has the best smile and she gives the best hugs. And she’s, like, the most amazing teacher in the world.

Dad is my hero, but I can tell he’s lonely. He tries to hide it from me, but sometimes at night, when he thinks I’m asleep, I’ll sneak downstairs and find him sitting on the couch, staring at nothing. He’s never had a girlfriend, not since the divorce. Mom messed him up. She’s good at that.

He’s smart and funny, but he doesn’t laugh enough. I’ve seen other moms at school check him out so I guess he’s handsome. (Eww.) And he makes up the best nicknames. He calls me Dandelion. I bet he’d give Miss Adler an awesome nickname too.

They're perfect for each other. I just know it. Now I only have to show them I’m right.

Wish me luck.

Katy

This was a short fun read. This can be read as a standalone but if you read the other books in the Maysen Jar series you've met Jeff before.

I loved extending my stay in this fictional town. We first met Jeff in Letters to Molly. He’s getting a divorce at the time and needed money for a lawyer. His daughter starts getting in trouble in school and he meets her beautiful teacher. They start spending time together and even though relationships between teachers and parents are forbidden, they cannot help but give into temptation. Her roommate begins to suspect and when he threatens to say something, they take a 2 month break until school is over. But Katy’s diary might ruin everything for them.

The perfect novella for Maysen Jar

I think I may have enjoyed this more than the original duet, it was so so cute. I adored Katie and her tenacity in getting Jeff and Della together. These two had a few hurdles to jump over, but I loved watching them fall in love.

The audio was great. Connor Crais is a forever fave and Vanessa Edwin is amazing too. This was the perfect quick listen to start my year off right.

So Cute

Such a sweet story. There were also a lot of fun little Easter eggs from the previous Maysen Jar books, although this story stands on its own. I wish we had gotten more!
As always, never any complaints with Connor Crais and Vanessa Edwin!

Such a cute story!

Reread December 2024: I really enjoyed the audiobook. I love the characters and how the story unfolded. For a novella, The Dandelion Dairy is a fantastic full story that was concise. Connor Crais and Vanessa Edwin did a fantastic job as usual!

A fantastic, complete romance

Wonderful novella about a divorced dad who finds love with a school teacher with a little (okay, a lot!) of help from his daughter and her diary. Perfectly narrated by one of my favorite duos -- Connor Crais and Vanessa Edwin.

Dandelion Diary--loved this short & sweet story!

I love Devney Perry’s books! They make me want to move to Montana. They’re funny and full of romance! I can’t want for Sun light to be released too! ❤️❤️

Conner Crais is one of my all time favorite narrators in the genre and Vanessa Edwin was fantastic as well. This book was a great read (listen). It moved quickly as is the norm for novellas and the author foreshadowed events that unfolded very well, especially when the luster gets the entire picture that was unexplained until the epilogue. The spicy scenes were 🌶️ and not overdone. Thanks Devney for another great book!

Awesome novella for audio!

This story never gets old, it’s still just as sweet, cute and filled with bits of spice.

Jeff Dawson (MMC) hot, hard working, single dad of the cutest little girl, Katy Dawson (Jeff’s middle school aged daughter, and she’s set her mind to play matchmaker with her dad and English teacher💚💛

Della Adler is Katy’s English teacher and the unknowing target of Katy’s matchmaking with her dad.

I love the characters in this book, I only wish it was longer!
Still 5 ⭐️’s
