About this listen
Molly Cook is almost 30, with dismal career prospects, and has given up on saving the world. It might be the 90s, and everything's shoulder pads, Doc Martens, and The X-Files, but people won't budge on gay rights. Molly decides to give a PhD a whirl but finds herself more interested in campus politics...and her strict and sexy statistics professor.
Professor Carmen Vaughn is stuck in small-town Maryland with smarmy blowhards for colleagues and ungrateful students who can't handle her high standards. She has no intention of coming out, least of all to Molly, a troublemaking grad student who can't stop picking fights with the conservative faculty.
But when Molly discovers evidence implicating a homophobic colleague in a scandal, Carmen can't ignore it - even if the subject hits too close to home. As the two women work together to make their case, they grow closer than Carmen ever imagined. But she absolutely refuses to get involved with a student.
The thing is, as the chemistry builds between them, Molly isn't sure she wants to be a grad student anymore...if she ever did.
Contains mature themes.

Great read and/or listen
Great story. So interesting incorporating historical events and the social mores of the time. The characters were likeable and really pulled you in so that you felt for them, and wanted that happily ever after for them.

favorite lesbian romance writer
This is the second book by Quinn Ivins I get to read/ listen. I am all and all fascinated by the storyline and the description of the characters. The academic workplace and the depiction of the political climate in the late 90's American scene alongside with the gay rights movements in universities really hits home.
I frankly love how Ivins works through a universe where the lives and struggles of the characters are central to the story, which makes it far more pleasant and entertaining than our typical lesbian romance stories where love is all that matters and the rest is very secondary.
