"The ladies call me Nathaniel--""The ladies call you revolting" she spat at him"Screw handsome. Screw good-looking. Alexander Rivera was, hands down, the sexiest man I'd ever met in my life."REVIEW - Humor, romance and a sexy English teacher...this book series has it all! I don't just recommend it, I prescribe it! If you are a crazy romantic like me then this is without a doubt the book for you! It is the cure to your addiction!Alexander Rivera *sigh* He is my addiction and no matter how many times I re-read this series I can't seem to find the cure. There is no cure to being absolutely head over heels in love with a Rivera.Steph Ghijk knows all about being head over heels in love with Alexander Rivera and he pretty much feels the exact same way. The problem? Oh its nothing...Alex Rivera just happens to be Mr Rivera, a 26 year old Hispanic English teacher at Webster Grove High. The high school in which Steph now attends...as a student. To make matters worse, 18 houses and 11 schools later Stephs mum has finally decided to stop running from her past and settle down after finding love in the shape of none other than Webster Grove's very own Calvin Rivera, Alex Rivera's older brother, making it near impossible for both Steph and Alex to keep there feelings hidden. Things go from bad to worse with each novella making each just as good as they next. No one ever said love was easy and this book series shows just how hard it really is. But when your love interest is Alexander Rivera, the sweetest most caring man in the world, it's definitely worth all that hardship and more...The Webster Grove series is a complete collection of 5 small novellas: The New Girl, Under the Mistletoe, Secrets to Keep, Coming Out, and All Good Things. It was written by none other than Tracie Puckett, author of Just a Little Series and my new all time favorite author!!Words cannot describe how Amazing this book series truly is. It is the fairy-tail of all fairy-tails. Check it out and see if this book series has the happy ever after all fairy-tails promise to be. I assure you, you won't be disappointed! 5 fantastic stars for the Webster Grove series! I stumbled upon this relatively unknown collection of 5 short stories which combine into an amazing story of love between teacher and student. The collection of stories written by author Tracie Puckett can be purchased and read together, as if they are an entire novel. I found this series on a long list of novels about teacher/student relationships on Goodreads. There were only 16 reviews written for this collection of stories at the time, but the reviews were outstanding, so I couldn't resist.Steph Ghijk is a high school senior, new to Webster Grove after her mother has moved them to her eighteenth house and school number eleven. She has never lived in one place long enough to establish roots and make good friends. Through it all, Steph has maintained a perfect GPA, and she strives to be an award-winning clothes designer. Alex Rivera is her senior English teacher of Cuban descent. Their relationship develops slowly throughout her senior year, is strictly emotional and very sweet. They both are very patient, both waiting for Steph to graduate so they can finally be together.The side characters in these stories were so awesome! Steph meets some amazing friends, the kind of friends that will always be there for you throughout your life, family. She also is able to enjoy and participate in a great school year, something she has never had because of her mom's compulsiveness to move around.I am hesitant to say much more about the Webster Grove series because I want readers to experience the goodness of it as they read. Take a chance and read this!

I so want to read this, but I'm completely broke, not even a $4.99 to spare. Woe is me.

starts out interesting, towards the end... not so much. Prefer the Just Little series.

Cute, if not entirely believable storyline of student/teacher
