Lucien and I

Grey's Anatomy meets The Hating Game in Sasha Clinton's new #ownvoices rivals-to-lovers fake dating romantic comedy novel. Mira Krishnan is a cardiothoracic surgery fellow whose three big goals in life are: Achieve superstardom in the field of heart surgery Prove to Lucien Stone that she's the superior heart surgeon. Fall in love with someone who is NOT Lucien Stone so she can erase her years-long crush on him. Lucien and Mira have been rivals since high school, and she'd like nothing more than to wipe that smug, overconfident smirk off his devastatingly handsome face. But when their rivalry goes too far and they're caught in the middle of a fight by the program director, Mira's life changes. To avoid being expelled from the fellowship for failing to conduct themselves in an appropriate, collegiate manner, Lucien and Mira are forced to lie about dating each other so they can dismiss their behavior as extreme flirting. But going on fake dates, vacations, and spending time together makes them realize that underneath all the jibes and rivalry, there's potential for something more…and perhaps, instead of looking into other people's hearts, they need to look into their own. Perfect for fans of STEMinist novels, love-hate relationships, academic rivals, miscommunication, and slow burn, steamy romcom books. NOTE: As this book has mature scenes, it is recommended for 18+ readers.
