Description

Julia Brighton, twenty and fresh out of college, crash lands a job in the Writing Center at Heywood High after turning down a prestigious graduate program at Harvard. Penniless and recovering from an abusive relationship, she last thing Julia needs to do is fall for eighteen-year-old Caden McCaffrey, a popular senior boy. Stunned by Caden’s intellect, maturity, and fierce protection of a bullied student in his class, Julia finds herself drawn to him in concerning ways. But as Julia tutors him throughout the semester, she learns that he also lost a brother and has found solace in a strong yet simple faith. “The Fabulous Miss B”, as the students call her, has learned from experience that love only brings abandonment and shame. But Caden seems determined to slash through her defenses, to believe in her more than she does in herself. He could burn to ashes everything Julia has worked toward…or he could ignite a fiery confidence within her that lights her way to a life of significance.
