Plot Overview
At the center of this story is Olive Smith. She is a smart and a bit awkward third-year Ph.D. student. Olive does not really believe in lasting love. To show her best friend that she is happily dating, Olive kisses the first man she sees. She quickly realizes it is Adam Carlsen. He is the famous, intimidating, and very good-looking professor known for being serious.
Surprisingly, Adam agrees to keep up the fake-dating charade. What begins as a simple arrangement soon becomes something deeper. Olive feels a strong chemistry that she can't ignore. With academic politics, professional struggles, and emotional walls standing in the way, their relationship becomes a fascinating (and hilarious) experiment in love.
