The Pick Up

It could never work.

Kyle's grappling with grief after losing his partner. He's a single dad suddenly back in the hometown he thought he'd left behind. Everyone from old friends to his daughter's too-hot teacher seems to disapprove of him.

It could never work.

Adam's life as a teacher is quiet and tidy. Messy, scattered Kyle doesn't fit into that. The best they can be is friends…as long as Adam ignores his inconvenient attraction to Kyle's goofy charm.

What if it did work?

Falling in love is all about timing, and Adam and Kyle's timing is the worst. But as the school year ends and their feelings grow, maybe the only time they have is right now.

This is the second edition of Allison Temple's debut romance. It has been rewritten and re-edited, though the plot and Kyle's nervous babble remain the same.
