This is Book 4 in this series, but all books can be read as a standalone. I have not read anything from this series, and this was the first time reading this author.

Kat (Kathleen) and Blake hook up, one night, neither of them knowing that they are about to be co workers at Ardmore University. Kat has had to work hard to be where she is, and is constantly having to prove to those around, that she is so much more than her pretty face. Blake has been a "late bloomer" to the academic world, but is more than happy to see Kat once again. They decide to a fake dating scenario after Kat is asked out by The Dean, and Blake is trying to starve off the 'attractions' of the PA. Of course, without a doubt, it is hard for them to deny their feelings, even though Blake has sworn of love and for good reason. Of course when their mutual pasts collide, the hurt is felt across the pages, and we see what the world doesn't see, not even close friends.
