Overview

The Love Hypothesis meets The Hating Game in a new standalone rom-com from New York Times acclaimed author and romance academic Jodi McAlister.   Sadie Shaw and Jonah Fisher have known each other for fifteen years – and they’ve disliked each other for every one of them. It started with a minor altercation in an undergrad literature class, but as their academic careers developed, so did the intensity of their arguments. By the time they graduate with their doctorates, they’re embroiled in a full-on rivalry.   So when a position comes up that Sadie and Jonah are both perfect for, their ongoing enmity explodes into a red-hot competition. But as Sadie fights to secure her future, she realises there might be a way for both of them to get their dream job. There's just one catch –they'll have to get married first.   When things get personal, though, Sadie will have to keep her eye on the prize. A fake marriage isn't worth jeopardising her real career over, is it?

Reviews

'An Academic Affair is an absolutely delightful modern marriage of convenience that works on every level. The tension and pining between Jonah and Sadie had me internally screaming for them to just kiss already! The insight into the world of academia felt incredibly real and relatable and I loved watching both characters sort out their careers and family lives while they also sorted out their feelings for each other. This is the kind of book you will gobble up in one sitting!' -- <B>Falon Ballard, author of <I>Change of Heart</I></B> 'Witty and nuanced, this slow-burn rom-com earns every emotional beat.' -- <B>Lauren Layne, <I>New York Times</I> bestselling author </B>
