In the close-knit town of Marchfield, where gossip spreads faster than texts between teens and love is as unpredictable as pop quizzes, Audrey Fremont and Oz Taylor aren't looking for a spicy workplace romance.
Audrey, a meticulous English teacher with a penchant for color-coded lesson plans, clashes with Oz, a charming yet disorganized Algebra instructor. Their chemistry is palpable from the moment they meet at a faculty mixer. Attraction quickly turns to animosity through misunderstandings, rumors, and a few walks of shame to the principal's office, but beneath the snarky banter and eye rolls lies a simmering attraction that neither can ignore.
As they navigate the minefield of middle school politics and their own insecurities, Audrey and Oz discover a love they never knew they needed. With a little humor, a tribe of meddling friends, a surprise confession in the copy room, and a few strategically placed dance routines, they might also find their happily ever after.
