If it weren’t for the squashed bug on the window, I wouldn’t be in this mess. When my Neuroscience professor demanded to know the title of my thesis, I should have said, “undecided.” But knowing I’d be docked a grade point for not being prepared, I blurted out the first thing that popped into my head: “Mind Over Splatter.” It was a joke. What can I say? The dead bug looked like a Rorschach inkblot. Now I need to find an art major willing to be my research buddy. So when a super cute guy with paint on his chin is tossed in my path, I pounce. After strongly suggesting I can guarantee him an easy A, he agrees to help. All he has to do is wear an EEG machine while he paints. But the joke’s on me because the way my brain lights up when he kisses me is a data point I really wasn’t prepared for.

She changed the plan. The game plan was simple. Get my degree in archaeology, then work for my cousin’s security firm where I'll add much-needed expertise in antiquities. But I didn't count on meeting her. Callie Adams is unlike anyone I've ever met before. For starters, she’ll go toe-to-toe with all our professors, and unlike most of our classmates here at Thackeray College, she couldn’t care less about her image. The bummer of it all? I can’t stop thinking about her, and she barely knows I’m alive. But that all changed just before Christmas when one of her projects turned dangerous. Now, I'm the only one who can help the woman who seems to occupy my heart 24/7… I can never have a guy like him. My family fought tooth and nail to get me to college, and now that I'm here, I'm not going to waste this opportunity. If there's a book in the library about archaeology or ancient languages, I'm going to read it. Ever since I was a kid it's been my dream to be an adventurer and Thackeray College is my ticket to that life. But being here has resulted in another fantasy, one that proves the old adage that opposites really do attract. Emerson Jacks is focused and quiet. But he's kind, too. And oh-so-sexy. I stare at him in his signature pale pink tee and know I want him as much as I've ever wanted to travel the world seeking Egyptian artifacts. But when my life falls apart mid-semester, all my hard work is suddenly in jeopardy. Until Emerson proves there’s way more to the strong, silent protector type than my heart ever dreamed…

In high school, I was the nerdy guy. The nice guy. The chubby guy. I didn't know crap about athletics or girls. But I had my eye on Lidia Hightower. She was kind and smart and beautiful. And with the wrong guy. Nothing I could do about it since she'd never look at a guy like me. Even after I saved her from a grave mistake. Years later with my transfer to Thackeray College comes a second chance I never thought I'd have when Lidia's here, too. Well this time I'm not going to blow it. In high school, I was the popular girl. The society girl. The one who had it all. I even dated the wrong guy because it presented a better image. But I was done with that. I was over doing what was expected and ready to do what I wanted. Who would have thought what I wanted was Cooper Stevens, the sweet boy who championed me when my friends abandoned me? The cute high school boy who grew into a fine college man but probably wouldn't look twice at me now. Only one way to find out... \\\* This standalone novella is part of a multi-author new adult steamy contemporary romance series set on a college campus in New England where twelve couples will fall in love at first kiss.
