What’s the Story About? (Don't Worry, No Spoilers!)

 

Meet Olive Smith. She’s a super-smart science student working hard at her university. She doesn’t have time for dating, but her best friend really wants her to be happy and in love.

So, to make her friend happy, Olive panics. She decides to pretend she has a boyfriend. In a moment of pure panic, she grabs and kisses the first guy she sees.

But guess what? The guy she kissed is Dr. Adam Carlsen, who is famous for being the youngest, smartest, and GRUMPIEST professor in the whole school!

Olive is sure she’s in huge trouble. But then, the biggest surprise happens: Adam agrees to help her out! He says he will be her fake boyfriend. Their plan is simple: pretend to be in love so Olive’s friend is happy, and then go back to their normal lives. Easy, right?

Wrong! The more time they pretend, the more things start to feel… not so fake.

  • Grumpy Guy and Sunshine Girl: We love stories where one person is grumpy and serious, and the other is bright and cheerful. Adam is always frowning, and Olive is like a ray of sunshine. Seeing them together is so sweet and funny!
