The Teacher's Heart — Michel Prince

There's no way Amanda Butler would ever let herself get attached to anyone. Sure, sex is fun, but love is for suckers. Her parents taught her that. She has her friends, a job she loves, and lots of fun flings. Everything she thinks she wants. Ashton Gilmore is at a crossroads when he meets Amanda. She's every thing he's ever wanted in a real relationship, but she might have too much baggage for even this hot political fixer to handle. For the past few years the women of Growing Strong Montessori have been discovering love they'd never thought possible. Sans one, Mandy who has spent the last few years taking one hit after another and can't see Ashton Gilmore as anything more than a bump in the road. Ashton has to find a way to teach Mandy that love exists, before she gives up on the concept all together.
