Scholar's Obsession
(2026)(The fourth book in the Claimed by the Valorian series)
A Story by Nova Sloane
Professor Petra Lindqvist has made the archaeological discovery of the millennium: ruins that predate every known civilization.
She doesn't need a Valorian "advisor." Especially not Varek.
He's arrogant, obsessive, and convinced humans are academically inferior. He also has horns, stands seven feet tall, and keeps looking at her like she's a puzzle he's desperate to solve.
Varek has studied every civilization in the galaxy. He's never encountered anyone like Petra - brilliant, stubborn, and utterly immune to his intellectual intimidation. She argues with him in four languages. Corrects his translations. Makes his markings glow when she bites her lip in concentration.
This was supposed to be an academic rivalry. It's becoming an obsession. And somewhere in the ruins of an ancient world, two scholars are about to discover that some chemistry can't be found in books.
Nerd romance. Academic rivals. One slow burn that ignites.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
