When Magdalene arrives, the teachers are shocked by her initial changes, but nobody is more shocked than Sam. Their greatest fear is that the new headmistress will turn the school into a lifeless husk of its former self. Her status as a ruthless reformer who puts efficiency above all else has the staff at Dragons in a panic. With Three Dragons Academy on the brink of bankruptcy, Magdalene Nox is hired by the Board of Directors to radically overhaul everything about the crumbling institution. But three months ago, at a conference in New York, Sam spent the night with a woman who took her breath away and transformed her. Sam has successfully fought for the inclusion of a handful of queer students, and until recently that was enough. Dragons is very rich, very white, and very straight. She’s firmly in the closet as the school’s board and donors are still closely aligned with the institution’s original charter dating back to the 1800s.
After briefly leaving Dragons to pursue her teaching degrees, she returned to become the chairperson of the school’s math department. Having been abandoned as an infant at the steps of the exclusive Three Dragons Academy, she’s grown up in academia, it’s the center of her world.
Samantha Threadneedle is yearning for change. The Headmistress by Milena McKay is just the kind of weighty age gap romance I look forward to getting lost in.
