As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees.
That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs.
Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.
"Olive," Dr.Aslan interrupted her with a stern tone. "What do I always tell you?"
"Um...Don't misplace the multichannel pipette'?"
"The other thing."
She sighed. "'Carry yourself with the confidence of a mediocre white man.'" (查看原文)
I have no idea if you're good enough, but that's not what you should be asking yourself. What matters is whether your reason to be in academia is good enough. (查看原文)

有些读者就是,看a片还这么多废话。。这本完全能看得出是有点文化水平的人写的,至少超过90%的同行,比如跟前辈五十度灰比比?咬嘴唇咬口腔内部倒真的应该吐槽一下,五十度灰的坏影响太深远了。为了傻子朋友善意谎言假戏真做的老梗、手机录音的韩剧场面,也可以改进。academia的人设多想一秒是会看不下去,被学术正经虐过的没有人能像女主这么傻白甜,像男主这么正常有人性的老早已经结婚有孩子过着完美的家庭生活。现... 有些读者就是,看a片还这么多废话。。这本完全能看得出是有点文化水平的人写的,至少超过90%的同行,比如跟前辈五十度灰比比?咬嘴唇咬口腔内部倒真的应该吐槽一下,五十度灰的坏影响太深远了。为了傻子朋友善意谎言假戏真做的老梗、手机录音的韩剧场面,也可以改进。academia的人设多想一秒是会看不下去,被学术正经虐过的没有人能像女主这么傻白甜,像男主这么正常有人性的老早已经结婚有孩子过着完美的家庭生活。现实中fuck keynote的phd candidate和fuck phd candidate的keynote肯定是ethics大大得有问题了。幻想世界可以容忍。期待作者再接再厉!

花了两天断断续续看完 只能说不愧是北美晋江文学 不过是随处可见的“先婚后爱”(划掉)storyline 文笔也比较啰嗦 goodreads那么高分真不至于 但是有一点我比较喜欢:作为一个女性读者 小说里有些对话读起来令人很舒服 male authors would never👌🏻(不过想看黄文的朋友可能要失望了 对sex的描写就那么一点 其他时间都在误会推拉kkk)
