Husband of the Year

Brought to you by Penguin.

Love grows, families change, and happily ever after isn’t always simple.

THE FINAL BOOK IN THE TEACHERS IN LOVE QUARTET!

Family isn't only about blood. It's about the people we choose.

Olan Stone wants nothing more than to spend the rest of his life with kindergarten teacher Marvin Block. And his daughter, Illona, can’t wait to call Marvin her stepfather. They’re bashert—meant to be. However, as the big day approaches, family tensions and unresolved issues put their future together in jeopardy.

Marvin thought he and Olan had everything all figured out. But he’s realizing that their whirlwind romance may not be the foundation for a lifetime commitment after all.

As they struggle through the changes that life is throwing their way, will they be drawn closer together or farther apart?
