When Auggie’s controlling father threatens to cut short his studies, it’s time to put his life in order. Add one cute nerd and one dedicated swimmer, and he has a new lesson to learn—how to love.
Emory is all kinds of confused. He really, really likes Auggie but is also in love with his best friend, Casey. Then Auggie comes up with a plan to see if Emory and Casey share any chemistry, and nothing will ever be the same again.
Casey lives for swimming and snuggling his best friend, Emory. Except Emory is in love with him, Auggie’s confusing him, and suddenly he has to confront his feelings and his sexuality.
Three men and one conundrum. How can they all get the guy?
Lessons in Chemistry is a slow-burn MMM college/university romance between an inexperienced nerd, an asexual jock, and the slacker who’s been around. There’s a fake date, first times, three guys finding their way in love and life, and a whole lot of snuggling.
Teaser Excerpt
Copyright Colette Davison 2023
“Aren’t you going to stay and finish your drink? Drinks,” he corrects. “I got you a fresh one.”
I sink into my chair. It would be rude not to stay, even though I want to run far away from him so I can scrub my brain out.
“We can chat about your problem,” Auggie says.
“My problem?”
“Yes. Your unrequited love for Casey. Have you told him you’re in love with him yet?”
“No, and I’m not going to.”
“Why not?”
Because I couldn’t take the inevitable rejection. “I don’t want to make things weird between us. Anyway, he told me he’s not interested in dating.”
“Oh, so you guys do talk about this kind of stuff after all.”
“He mentioned it last night when we were talking about—” I slap my hands over my mouth.
Auggie waggles his eyebrows. “Has someone else caught your fancy? Me, for instance?”
“You are so full of yourself,” I mutter.
“You could be full of me too.”
I choke, cough, and splutter all at the same time. Auggie stands and pats my back, which doesn’t make anything better. I sip my iced coffee until I’ve recovered.
“I’m sorry.” Auggie doesn’t sound the least bit sincere.
