About this ebook

One shy professor. One seductive alter-ego. One dangerously sexy experiment.

Dr. Felix Sterling is a genius in the chemistry lab… and a total disaster everywhere else. Especially when it comes to charming the university’s golden boy, Professor Thorne Carr. Felix is awkward, anxious, and secretly head-over-lab goggles for the man—but confidence isn’t exactly something you can synthesize… or is it?

Desperate to impress, Felix whips up a serum designed to boost his boldness. What he gets is Jax—a dangerously hot, ridiculously smooth alter-ego who turns heads, breaks hearts, and flirts like it’s a sport. Jax doesn’t just talk to Thorne—he seduces him. Fast.

Thorne’s hooked. But the closer Jax gets, the more tangled things become. Because juggling a double life is volatile, and Jax’s ego isn’t just a side effect—it’s a full-blown takeover. Felix is left wondering if Thorne’s falling for him... or the fantasy he created.

Can Felix come clean before the truth detonates? Or is this one experiment destined to blow up in his face?

Dive into The Naughty Professor for a hilarious, heartfelt MM romance where the only thing more explosive than the chemistry is the truth. Perfect for fans of gay rom-coms, professor romance, and fake identity tropes with a side of opposites attract charm!

A fun gay modern retelling of The Nutty Professor. That really says it all. Felix has had a crush on his colleague Thorne for years but is shy and nerdy and not at all sure what to do about it. He does find out Thorne is gay at the funeral of another colleague but isn't really able to get around his shyness. Then he finds out about a serum that can rewrite brain chemistry and remove inhibitions (and how!) and he meets up with Thorne in this new persona. Eventually they figure things out together

I started reading this book and was fascinated, curious, definitely committed to continuing. From the outset something about it was intriguing. The nerdy science professor, the off-limits history professor, the clingy head of faculty, the hilarious TA. It all melded perfectly with no hint of where it was going but enough information, character building, setting creation, to make it addictive!

Cute! Jax was awfully annoying though. Felix was always the better man, though he lacked all that confidence. I do love Lux. I want to read her book.
