Academic Souls

By Allison Young and Ms Allison Young

Moving to Scotland was meant to be a clean break.

A quiet promise to myself: focus on my career, heal my heart, and leave men firmly in the past.

No more love. No more heartbreak. Just work, solitude, and the comfort of routine.

Then I met him.

He's distant and devastatingly magnetic. Gentle one moment, unreadable the next. There's something timeless in the way he looks at me-like he knows me beyond this lifetime. He feels cold to the touch, vanishes without warning, and yet when he's near, the world seems to tilt toward him. Toward us.

I try to ignore the pull between us, burying myself in lectures and preparations for the upcoming Pagan moon festival. I tell myself it's just a distraction. A mistake waiting to happen. But some connections don't fade when ignored-they deepen, threading themselves through every heartbeat, every breath.

Because love doesn't always arrive when it's convenient.

And it doesn't always belong to the living.

I'm Paisley, a university lecturer who swore off love...

And I'm falling for someone who may cost me everything.

Academic Souls is an adult paranormal romance told in dual POVs, filled with slow-burn desire, ancient magic, and a love that lingers long after death.
