The Marchfield Middle Series
Where Lesson Plans Go Awry and Love’s Always in Session!Step into the hilarious halls of Marchfield Middle, a small-town Virginia school where the teachers are just as tangled in drama as their students. With steamy romances, laugh-out-loud moments, and more classroom chaos than a pop quiz on a Monday, this series proves that sometimes the real education is in love.

In the close-knit town of Marchfield, where gossip spreads like wildfire and love is unpredictable, Audrey Fremont and Oz Taylor aren’t looking for a workplace romance.

No-nonsense English teacher Audrey Fremont is the complete opposite of Oz, the charming but disorganized Algebra instructor who has a knack for driving her crazy. When their instant chemistry leads to a one-night stand, school politics gets a whole lot more complicated. Between misunderstandings, rumors, and awkward trips to the principal’s office, sparks fly. But beneath the snarky remarks and side-eye glares, a simmering connection grows that neither can deny.

As they navigate the complexities of middle school, their own insecurities, and the growing attraction between them, Audrey and Oz are forced to face the fact that what they thought was a disaster might actually be the beginning of real love. With plenty of humor, a surprise confession in the copy room, and a few impromptu dance routines, they might just stumble into their happily-ever-after.

Evan’s more than willing to help, though he’s not exactly prepared for the whirlwind that is Val. What starts as a simple arrangement soon turns messy as the chemistry between them heats up. But as he juggles the needs of his family and friends, he can’t afford to lose focus on his own life.

Between dodging setups, surviving awkward family dinners, and indulging in flirty road trip banter, they find themselves spinning out of control on the dance floor of life. As attraction simmers and the line between pretense and reality blurs, Val and Evan discover that faking love might be more complicated than they ever anticipated.
