Summary
“Hello, Mrs. Silva. I’m Beatrice Young.” The woman reaches her hand out for a handshake. She has a posh accent, which Ava unfortunately finds very attractive. “At last we meet.”
Oh. Ava blinks a couple of times. Beatrice Young, teacher of Year 3 A, had been e-mailing her for a few days, asking her for her lesson plans so they can synchronize their classes. From the e-mails, with their serious and professional tone, and her lesson plans, extremely meticulous and standardized, Ava could not have imagined that…
Beatrice is very hot.
“It’s Miss Silva.” Ava corrects, cringing a bit. This will be a correction she will have to make multiple times, she sees. “You can call me Ava, though.”OR: After a personal loss and a messy divorce, Ava Silva returns to teaching Year 3 at Sacred Heart of Mary Primary School, where she is excited to use her chaotic and revolutionary methods. Beatrice Young, her more traditional counterpart, only sees it as irresponsibility. When a (surprisingly fun) rivalry over class averages ignites between them, sparks fly (and not just the competitive type).

Summary
When her best friend at the orphanage gets sick with Mountain Fever, Ava has no other option than to become an outlaw to get him enough money for a doctor. She braves out of her small Kansas town in the Wild West into her new life of crime and ends up accidentally kidnapping U.S Marshall Beatrice Young, leading to a long and harrowing journey through Kansas as Ava tries to ignore how pretty the Marshall is and get to Dodge City. Of course, nothing ever goes to plan.
