Father Knows Best

EDUCATOR...OR INSTIGATOR?

Chance Avery had consulted every expert, including Dr. Spock, for help in being a single parent to his only daughter. Now that she was a teenager, though, the problems became outrageous and out of hand. All due to the bad influence of one woman.

Simone Stevens was the most unorthodox educator ever to shake up the Georgia school system. And shake it up she did -- from playing dress-up in classes to cavorting with male strippers after school. According to Chance, everything about the woman spelled trouble.

But even more trouble was his reaction to meeting the feisty, attractive Ms. Stevens face-to-face.

Suddenly Chance knew it was one fatherly dilemma no child-rearing book ever mentioned.
