Summary
Kate Sharma lives by rules—carefully constructed ones designed to keep her safe from repeating the biggest mistake of her life.
Anthony Bridgerton treats rules like obstacles to be charmingly negotiated.Unfortunately for both of them, they also have a joint university initiative, a syllabus they cannot agree on, and a frankly alarming amount of unresolved academic (and sexual) tension.
The more they work together, the harder it becomes to ignore the spark they’ve been pretending wasn’t there from their very first contentious email. And when one perfect, catastrophic moment pushes them over the edge, Kate and Anthony have to decide whether their rules are keeping them safe…or keeping them from exactly what they want.
A slow-burn academic rivals-to-lovers romance about rules, rebuilding, trust, and the courage to try again.

Summary
It started with a cardigan.
The first time Anthony Bridgerton shrugged out of a sweater in Kate Sharma’s presence, it was innocent enough—probably.
By the second time, Sophie was placing bets.
By the third, Kate was adding “Do not spend excessive time thinking about knitwear” to her binder of professional rules.And by the fourth…well, married life came with its own set of rule-breaking opportunities.
A four-part exploration of one man’s knitwear, one woman’s resolve, and the slow unraveling of both.
