David's Joy

Sometimes it's easy to forget that, while professional, teachers are real people, too. They experience the triumphs and losses of love like anyone else and yet are expected to obey the rule to avoid a workplace romance at all costs. While Joy Miller and David Pearson certainly had no intentions to invite the scrutiny and judgment of superiors, colleagues, and the community, they find themselves doing just that. Falling in love was as natural as selecting a delicious apple from a Minnesota apple tree. Despite each having a similar work ethic, and collegial respect, their individual plans to thwart undo scrutiny and survive the school year result in near disaster for their budding romance. Will Joy leave Litton, her friends, and her greatest love behind forever? Will David realize the error in his logic soon enough to rescue them both from a life of deep regret and sorrow? Real teacher and romance writer, Lisa Smelter, brings faithful readers of her Love in Litton series to the edge of their seats in this, her sixth in the popular series.
