Until one day her car breaks down and her daughters kindergarten teacher comes to the rescue. Lana not only fixes Katie's car but provides a shoulder to lean on.

First I want to say the title of this book is terrible. It is, in my dirty mind totally misleading.

Katie has a problem dating men, when they find out that she has a daughter things get awkward. After a terrible date her car breaks down and her daughter's kindergarten teacher comes to the rescue.

This was a good story with little to no angst that showed the reader why Katie fell for Lana. I wish there were more interaction with Alex, Katie's daughter.

The thing that really annoyed me was that the story ended at 70% and the rest was an excerpt for another book. That said it shouldn't be longer but if I bought the book and I pay for 200 pages I'd expect I get said amount.

I enjoyed this but loses a star on length (Slightly harsh? - ed) Very niave in the writing which I actually like & the story has real merit.

This book seemed promising. The synopsis caught my attention and it sounded like a cute idea. But by the end it just didn't feel like it flowed and the "problem" was thrown in randomly and very matter-of-fact "you're fired!" out of no where. It felt like the writer put it in there just so that there would be some type of conflict or such so that they could then manufacture this "happily ever after" ending. It just didn't flow organically to me and dropped my initial 3 star rating down to a 2. Just wasn't for me in the end.

How much is too much?

Lana is a kindergarten teacher who teaches Alex, Alex mother Kristie is trying to find a person to support her, care for her and Alex and for some reason the men she has been dating claim up when Kristie tells them she has a five year daughter. How can these men be so dense? Kristie car battery dies on her way to pick up her daughter from school. What follows is finding a savior willing to help and take care of her and the good and bad that follows. Follow the author's way of solving these minor details. Enjoy!

Good Story

This story tells of a single mum who thinks she is straight, meeting her daughters lesbian teacher, and instantly knowing there is a bond. Not realising that she is falling in love.

Short & Sweet

While HEAs can become mundane in their predictability, I enjoyed the process of Katie and Lana’s story. From their initial meeting to their Lean on Me moment, I enjoyed the journey. :)

HAPPILY EVER AFTER
I love 💘reading 📚 Briar Lane e-books. Because she presents them so tenderly.
This story is sure to provide some really warm feelings of joy.

Sweet HEA. However the firing over an old rule and subsequent run-in with the PTA is a little too contrived.

[Nessy · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book was more of an outline of a book. It was merely 200 pages and every “issue” was immediately, and easily resolved.

Great pace, great story well told

[Hasitha · Rating 4 out of 5]

The name and the cover of this book are very misleading. This is probably the sweetest sapphic romance I’ve read.

[Morgan Robertson · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very sweet and sapphic

2.5 stars

[Kristine Main · Rating 3 out of 5]

Too short and not enough of a plot.

[Mabel · Rating 3 out of 5]

They have sex maybe twice. The story had a lot of promise, but writing this review a few days later makes me want to rate it two stars instead of three. I’m not mad I read it, but who picks up a book with this cover and wants to read a story that is mainly about a lesbian losing her job and the fight to get it back.

Finding you

Katie was a single parent to a 5 year old. Life was just going through the changes. Then, she met Lana. Lana was her daughter Alex kindergarten teacher. Only one problem Lana was a lesbian. Read their story. They are really cute together. And don't forget to get the bonus chapter.
