Counterargument - An Academic Opposites-Attract Romance #958553

Dr. Patricia Okonkwo has her life exactly where she wants it. Full professor. Award-winning scholar. Expert in Nigerian women's literature and the politics of silence. She needs nothing and no one—especially not another charming academic with an Irish accent and a tendency to say exactly the wrong thing.

Then Dr. Liam Brennan walks into her department.
He's everything she doesn't want: warm where she's reserved, expansive where she's precise, and infuriatingly interested in her work. When he delivers a lecture on Yeats that fundamentally misunderstands postcolonial theory, Patricia does what she does best—she holds him accountable in front of everyone.
She doesn't expect him to listen.
She doesn't expect him to read every book she recommends.
She doesn't expect him to show up at her office with questions, humility, and genuine curiosity.

And she definitely doesn't expect to fall for him.
But when his past crashes into their present, Liam does the one thing Patricia can't forgive—he runs. Now she has to decide: build her walls higher, or let him argue his way back into her heart.
