Valentine Reads

If fake dating + STEM romance is your love language, this one’s for you 🧪💘

A fake relationship. One grumpy, brilliant professor.

And a woman who absolutely did not plan on falling for him.

The Love Hypothesis is:

✨ Slow-burn perfection

✨ Grumpy x sunshine

✨ Forced proximity

✨ Smart, funny, heart-squeezing romance

What starts as a harmless fake date turns into stolen looks, lingering touches, and feelings that refuse to stay hypothetical.

📖 Perfect if you want:

– Romance without spice overload

– Emotional payoff

– A swoony, secretly-soft MMC

– A Valentine’s read that makes you smile and swoon

Trust me: this one will have you rooting, blushing, and rereading favourite scenes.
