By the Book — Christine Dorsey

STARTING OVER

When Charlotte Handley left the luxurious Richmond mansion of her ex-husband and moved to a small house in colonial Williamsburg, she vowed to establish her newfound independence. Her daughter Elizabeth, however, had other things in mind. With the romantic fervor of a teenager, she tried her hand at a bit of matchmaking.

With his tall, masculine body, aquamarine eyes, and sensual lips, Mac McQuade was bound to bewitch any woman he set his sights on. But Charlotte wasn't ready to get involved with a man--particularly when that man was her daughter's English teacher.

Charlotte was going to play this one by the book. No encouraging smiles, no phone calls, no romantic dinners. But everywhere she turned, Mac greeted her with a world of advice, a heart-rending look, a sweeping kiss. This man was a capable teacher, and he was determined to give Charlotte a passionate lesson she would never, ever forget.
