The Thesis

About The Thesis

Nora Quinn only needs Professor Marcus Hale to approve her thesis, not become the forbidden future she can’t stop wanting.

After three years under Marcus Hale’s exacting eye, Nora’s dissertation is nearly finished. One missing archival link sends them to Florence together, where the line between brilliant mentor and forbidden temptation finally snaps.

In the private reading room of the Biblioteca Riccardiana, Nora finds the proof that could make her career, and Marcus gives in to the desire they have both been denying. Back home, every revision, every late-night meeting, and every locked door pulls them deeper into a relationship that could destroy them both.

When an anonymous complaint threatens Nora’s doctorate, Marcus’s tenure, and the life they’ve begun building in California, they have to face the consequences in the open. Their love is no longer a secret, and neither of them is willing to surrender it.

A complete standalone contemporary forbidden romance with open-door heat, an earned HEA for Nora and Marcus, and 18+ content.
