The Doctoral Disaster

What would you do for a movie-perfect romance?

Mya Donoghue has always played the supporting character to everyone around her, but she finally gets her chance for the lead role in her own life after deciding to finish her Ph.D. in archeology out in sunny California. While touring campus, Mya gets hopelessly lost, but in true rom-com fashion, she collides with a handsome man named Javi who helps her find her way.

They spend a passionate night together, falling head over heels, before Mya heads back to Boston for the summer. By the time school starts, she’s almost put Javi from her mind until he walks into the classroom and introduces himself as their professor.

There’s no denying the chemistry that ignites between them, but Javi has secrets he isn’t willing to share immediately and Mya’s distrust of anyone with seemingly something to hide makes their rom-com relationship difficult to navigate. Mya’s desperation for the perfect movie romance could put her relationship – and doctorate- in serious jeopardy, and she’s faced with a question:

How far is she willing to go to make her life like a movie before the genre turns from rom-com to tragedy?
