Lizzie
Tarleton has always done things her own way—including the time at
the tender age of thirteen when she confessed to her brother’s best
friend she loved him. But now she’s a new teacher at the local high
school, and independent enough to know that you can’t force love.
She’ll find love when the time is right—even though her parents
are adamant the time is now. The only downfall to her idyllic life is
the fact that her childhood crush—who broke her heart—is now her
boss. If only she could stop daydreaming about him.
Wayne
Whitmore grew up on the wrong side of the tracks and worked hard to
get where he’s at in life. Even though he enjoys being principal at
the small town high school, he dreams of coaching baseball. When his
best friend asks him to watch over his little sister at her new job
at Wayne’s school, he agrees. What he doesn’t count on is how
she’s grown from the pig tailed kid who told him she loved him, to
the woman who breaks his concentration with her beauty and smile.
Unable to get over his fascination, and afraid he’ll ruin his
friend’s trust, Wayne applies for his dream job—one that will
take him far away.
One night while decorating the school gymnasium for an upcoming sock hop, Lizzie and Wayne find themselves alone. They share a kiss and Lizzie realizes her childhood crush for Wayne has never died. Wayne decides he doesn’t want to let Lizzie get away.
Can they come to terms with their secret love and then overcome the other secrets they are hiding in order to get what they each want? Or is their timing for love still off?

Excerpt
She
blinked away the heat of tears forming at the back of her eyes. Their
conversation had grown too serious. She needed to lighten things up a
bit. “Remember when we used to play ‘What if?’”
He
laughed. “What if Lizzie wore a dress?”
“Either
she was going to church, or her mom was having a ladies’ social.”
Lizzie giggled. “Ricky hated that game.”
“He’d
get so mad when you’d start it.” He made the final cut on a small
snowflake and added it to the pile before him.
“What
if Wayne couldn’t throw his famous curve ball?”
“The
school trophy case would be one trophy short. What if Lizzie wasn’t
teaching here?”
She
pouted. “She’d be sad. I have no idea what I’d be doing if I
hadn’t found a job here. What does Lizzie have to do to show Wayne
she thanks him?” She winked, enjoying their fun.
He
cleared his throat. “What if Wayne said Lizzie owed him a kiss?”
Her
belly trembled. What if?
“What
if he stole one?” His voice lowered and he leaned in.
“Why
don’t you find out?” she whispered.
