The Lance Temptation (2013)

Marc knew my dad was rarely home. “Hey, I’m sorry. He still has his copier job, right?”
“Yeah, but it won’t pay the tuition.”
“What about your mom’s job?”
“Still has it, but it doesn’t make much. I’ve heard her rant about her crummy pay often enough.”

“Homeschool?”

“Yeah, it wouldn’t be good. Wow, Emili, sorry.” His voice was soft and sympathetic, pure perfect Marc.MoreLess
