Ever After Drake — Keary Taylor

It was my first day as a brand new high school teacher. But I got dumped that morning. Via text. And then one of my students hit on me. And the rest of the day was a complete mess. The beautifully single Mr. Drake McCain found me in my classroom, feeling sorry for myself. And not sixty seconds later he had me laughing and electricity racing through my blood. My family is broken and complicated. I literally don't know my biological father's name. My mother is absent and my half-brother barely knows who she is. But Drake? He's not complicated. He's sweet and kind and insanely adorable, and comes from a wonderful family. He is everything I want. The chemistry between us? It's there in spades. I keep telling myself that I should be feeling really awful and depressed since I just got dumped a few days ago. But I keep getting this ridiculous smile on my face every time Drake is around and it's kind of hard to keep telling myself that. I'm Kaylee Ray. I believe in fairy tales and happily ever after's, and maybe the search for Prince Charming is over. Cue reality check.
