Product description...

Second Chances for Success and Romances

We know that romance among students is typical in high schools. Their teachers are not immune to the love bug, either. Ditto the secretaries and janitors and the other adults. It is a wonder any work gets done!

Does the overnight crew find love? How about the daytime regulars? Even a guidance counselor? Katie, a young school secretary, is about to learn the answer in this cozy novel centered on Riverview Vocational High School. Two men become quite interested in her. Romance is complicated by medical developments and the reunion of Katie and a special friend.

Yes, a dog will play an important role. So will a mysterious caller, a person who has caused trouble at the school before.

The dog, Rusty, is a drop-out from the highly competitive profession of Seeing-Eye Dog, but he finds his niche at the high school as an informal Therapy Dog. Subsequently, a new development leads to a new canine calling for this popular pooch.

Katie’s life takes a dramatic turn as she recovers from her injuries.
