The Tartan Thesis: Love was never on the curriculum.

About this book

Two academic rivals. One forced partnership. Zero chance of keeping it professional. Beau, a charming, fish-out-of-water Texan, and Torin, a guarded, razor-smart Scotsman, start their PhD program in Scottish History on the worst possible footing. Their clashing personalities and deep-seated insecurities turn every seminar into a battlefield, leaving their academic futures hanging by a thread. When the department chair issues a final ultimatum—collaborate on a project or face expulsion—the two enemies are forced into a shaky, high-stakes alliance. What begins as a reluctant ceasefire quickly transforms into something far more complicated. As they navigate the halls of academia and the majestic, moody backdrop of Scotland, their mutual irritation gives way to a slow-burning, undeniable chemistry. They soon discover that while they are experts in history, they are woefully unprepared for the emotional lessons they are forced to learn from one another. Perfect for fans of enemies-to-lovers and forced proximity tropes, *The Tartan Thesis* is a sharp-witted and deeply emotional MM romance. As defenses fall and trust builds, Beau and Torin must decide if they are brave enough to build a future together, or if the weight of their pasts and the pressure of their ambitions will keep them apart.
