A second-chance romance for people who want to see academic criminals brought to justice.

They woke up married in Vegas. One quickie divorce and five years later, can they deliver academic justice and find love?

Kat Pollard knows her worth: she's looking for an associate professor position where she can be her opinionated self without apology. But a campus visit comes with an unwelcome reminder of her past in the form of Aiden Tucker, the man she married five years ago at a conference in Vegas.

Aiden Tucker has gone along to get along in his career, and it's worked: he's the editor of Writing Studies Quarterly and no one in his department hates him. But when Kat bursts back into his life, he has to face some hard truths about how his approach has let bad behavior go unchecked.

Can Kat resist her attraction to the man whose rumpled hair and jokes about Burkeans make her weak in the knees? Can Aiden find the courage to take a stand and win Kat's trust? They're on the edge of something, and it will take a leap of faith to find out if it's love or disaster.

A scorching debut novelette from an author who has had enough of mediocre white men.

A junior scholar with a chip on her shoulder. A full professor with a grudge. A passion they couldn’t deny!

Michael Greenwood has it all: he was just promoted to full professor, his second book won awards (note the plural), and he’s looking forward to seeing old friends at the Writing Studies Conference. But the reviews of his newest article send him into a tailspin. His arguments are “derivative and weak”? He’d like to give Reviewer 2 a piece of his mind.

Kayla Dahl has worked hard for everything she has: a tenure-track job, an award that even her college's dean seems mildly impressed by, and the chance to be a keynote speaker at this year’s Writing Studies Conference. When a last-minute review request comes in, she lets herself say exactly what she thinks about the crappy article.

Two academics are set on a collision course when an overheard conversation leads to a confrontation. Anger leads to passion, and passion leads to the discovery that sometimes Reviewer 2…is exactly what you need.
