description: Marcus  Being a single parent was hard and something Id never imagined Id be. So when my ex-wife abandoned not only me but our son my world was on its axis and I was forced to raise my son Jackson by myself. Unfortunately trying to balance that fine line as both mother and father as well as work full-time was something I failed at miserably. My world centered on my child and my job. A personal life was non-existent. Until one last-minute decision to pick my child up from school I realized two things: I didnt know my son at all and his male teacher had the most stunning blue eyes Id ever seen. Anthony  My student Jackson Anderson had a secret. One that I was determined to figure out. It was one of the many reasons I became a teacher in the first place. To watch the light flash in their eyes as they finally grasped what I taught them had to be one of the most rewarding experiences ever. And even though I probably shouldnt admit it Jackson had burrowed his way into my heart to become my favorite student. How could I stop myself from offering to tutor the little dude so he could pass my class? Considering Id been single since my douchebag ex cheated on me I couldnt help but notice just how sexy Jacksons father Marcus was. Too bad he was straight. A friendship blossoms between the two men and leaves Marcus questioning whether he was so straight after all. And thanks to Anthony Marcus begins to mend his relationship with his son. Obstacles seem to hit them at every turn but maybe sometimes love will find a way ***Teaching Tenderness is book one of the Forever in Middlebury series. While each book could be read as a stand-alone it is recommended that they be read in order. Each book will revisit characters from the previous ones in the series.
