Extra Credit: A Forbidden Sapphic Academic Romance

The most dangerous thing a woman can do is stop pretending.

Harper Quinn is twenty-two, fiercely ambitious, and entirely dependent on the honors scholarship keeping her at Alderton University. She has a meticulous plan for her senior year: keep her head down, write a brilliant thesis, and graduate. What isn't in her plan is Dr. Elise Rowan.

At forty, Elise is the English department’s brilliant, notoriously untouchable ice queen. She has built her career on the academic study of forbidden desire, but she has spent her entire life ruthlessly controlling her own. When Harper’s thesis on the ethics of transgression pushes them into dangerously close proximity, the academic boundaries between supervisor and student begin to blur.

What starts as intellectual sparring in a dimly lit office quickly escalates into a consuming, high-stakes collision. Harper is brave enough to name what she wants, but Elise has a lifetime of careful rules and a hard-won tenure to protect. As the secrecy deepens and the rumors on campus ignite, they must decide if the cost of honesty is higher than the cost of a lie.

Extra Credit is a high-heat, dual-POV sapphic romance featuring intense intellectual tension, an 18-year age gap, praise kink, and a guaranteed Happily Ever After.
