Janae Sanders' Second Time Around - by Laquette (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A single mom gets a second chance at love with her high school sweetheart.

Wary of love after her divorce, Janae Sanders focuses on the best things in her life, her son James, and her friends in the Savvy, Sexy, and Single Club. But when she runs into her high school crush, Adam at their 20-year reunion, she remembers the woman she left behind. Before she can give that forgotten woman any attention, or more aptly allow Adam to give her some attention, the new superintendent of her son's school district slashes James' arts program. Instead of getting her groove back, Janae's getting her protest on.

Adam Henderson, the new superintendent, has always had a thing for Janae. When he returns home after twenty years, he jumps at the chance to reacquaint himself with the one who got away. But if he can't get the head of the PTA off his back after cutting programs that were costing the district money, he may not have as much time to devote to Janae as he'd planned.

When a school board meeting is called, and they both discover they've been dating the enemy, Janae gives Adam two choices: restore the programs or lose her. Adam proposes a third option: they can take the weekend to get away at his family's cabin, find a compromise on the arts programs, and see where this thing between them can go. Janae resists at first, but when her girls remind her that you catch more flies with honey, she wonders if Adam is right. Maybe there is a way for them to both get what they want.
