Marvin Block is one of the best kindergarten teachers out there. And despite his anxiety, Marvin’s life is sweet. Returning from break, the New Year finds Marvin all set to welcome a new pupil to his class. But when Illona walks in with her cute-as-hell single dad beside her, Marvin’s focus starts to slide. As their friendship starts to deepen, Marvin realizes Olan has the potential to teach him things about love he never thought possible. But with the Teacher of the Year award and his school’s future on the line, now’s not the time for anything complicated. Will the couple’s goals finally mesh and provide them with a future?

Despite his insecurities & quirks, Marvin was a lovable guy. The Jewish references were a nice touch, altho at times felt a bit forced. His reaction to Olan was adorable but his disbelief that Olan liked him went on too long & better editing would make the story progress faster. I loved both MCs relationships with the children in the book. Olan’s ex-wife’s reaction to their relationship was ideal & refreshing, sadly I think it is a bit unrealistic in real life. Overall, this is a cute, sweet MM romance I recommend you read.

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Kate Rock Book Tours and the author. All opinions are my own.
