Nothing in Nora Penaβs life has ever come easy. If she canβt bring up her grade inβTremaine the Terribleβs difficult history class, she wonβt win the grant she needs to finish her degree. But getting close to the intimidating but handsome professor whose passions simmer below a crusty exterior could create as many problems as it solves.
Dr. Mark Tremaine may have a PhD in history but he needs a remedial class in life. Having escaped the demands of βpublish or perishβ at a prestigious university, he now focuses on teaching the subject he loves at a smaller college. But despite his best efforts, he canβt seem to connect with his students. That is, until he mentors a shy but sassy young woman who makes him rethink his approach to teaching and opens him up to love.
