Take a hint, dani brown (Little, Brown Book Group)

When brooding security guard Zafir Ansari rescues her from a workplace fire drill gone wrong, it's an obvious sign: PhD student Dani and ex-rugby player Zaf are destined to sleep together. But before she can explain that fact, a video of the heroic rescue goes viral.

Now half the internet is shipping #DrRugbae - and Zaf is begging Dani to play along. Dani's plan is simple: fake a relationship in public, seduce Zaf behind the scenes. But grumpy Zaf is secretly a romantic - and he's determined to corrupt Dani's stone-cold realism.With every fake date and midnight meeting, Dani's easy lay becomes more complex than her thesis.

Has her wish backfired? Or is the universe waiting for her to take a hint?
