About the Author
“You should get a look at the DILF at the registration desk,” Lorelai whispered as she entered my
classroom. “Hottest dad I’ve ever seen in my five years here.”
I loved her to death, but my teaching assistant was a total bimbo. She threw around the “DILF” term a
lot. Daddy I’d Like to Fuck. I sometimes had to wonder whether she was here to shape children’s lives
by teaching them or to influence their lives by stealing one of their fathers. Not to mention, this was
supposed to be an uptight, religious institution. Priests and nuns were always lurking around these halls,
and she couldn’t have cared less.

Sliding a chair into place, I answered, “Matt Bomer.”
“Yes! That kind of hair. This guy didn’t look like him per se, but he was just that kind of handsome.
Tall, muscular, smelled good. And he has the cutest little boy, too. Kid had glasses and curly hair. He
might even be in this class, because he looks pretty young.”
I hadn’t met any of my new students yet. There was an orientation I had to miss due to a prescheduled
trip for my mother’s destination wedding in Antigua. Another colleague had filled in for me. So, I felt
even more out of the loop than usual.
I tried to get Lorelai to focus on the task at hand. “Wanna put these welcome packets on each table,
please?”
Nothing seemed to be going my way today. I’d spilled some white paint on my black skirt as I placed
