With the Headmaster's Approval Jan Hurst-Nicholson

When dashing American, Adam Wild, takes up the position of head teacher at St Mary's Academy for Girls in England, he knows he'll have his work cut out for him. The governing board thinks his background as an officer in the US Navy makes him well suited to restore much needed discipline to the school. But some of the all-female teaching staff disagree. Jenna feels the position should have been hers and undermines his attempts to reform the troubled school. Barbara (Babs) sees him as a romantic challenge, but Lisa, his confidant, believes she knows where his heart truly lies. His virile presence acts as a catalyst that upsets the entrenched order and stability of the school world, and proceeds to pull more than one dark, scandalous secret into the light ... And then Nicole, his late wife's tearaway kid sister returns from Africa - and she is hiding secrets of her own. Intrigue, scandal and suspense simmer beneath the surface of this light-hearted and humour-peppered romance, where one man's influence on a school full of wayward girls and their teachers changes their lives in ways none of them could imagine - and eventually his own.
