My boss is the stiff, surly, suited city bureaucrat… and I'm the new teacher of his nightmares.
I'm desperate for a fresh start at a new school. Lucky for me, Oliver Flores, the infuriatingly hot principal of PS 2, is desperate for a new teacher.
He's forced to hire the Sweaty Albeit Beautiful Trash Siren he found amongst the dumpsters (I had a morning, okay?). I'm forced to take the job.
He's all label makers and lists. I'm all creativity and chaos.
He needs to loosen up. I need to tighten up.
He demands control. I need freedom.
For right now, I have no choice but to follow my boss's every explicit directive and not make any waves. No drama llamas. Because he needs his promotion. And I need to keep this job.
But what happens when Mr. Flores's orders go from "send me your lesson plans" to "see me after school"? What happens when they go from "take it out" to "let me in"?
For the sake of both of our jobs, we'll need to keep this a secret. It's a terrible idea…
…but I might just love it when Oliver orders me around.
Beyond the Bell is the first book in the Lessons in Love series and can be read as a total standalone. It's for fans of high heat romantic comedies, and features a grumpy boss and his sunshine employee, a fresh start, a secret relationship, BIPOC representation, found family, and tons of spice.
