That man is none other than Adam Carlsen a young hotshot professorand wellknown ass Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanfords reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend But when a big science conference goes haywire putting Olives career on the Bunsen burner Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyieldingsixpack abs
