   Summary

   Reader studies at the San Francisco University of Science, majoring in Molecular Science to try and help with the current ‘Astrophage’ situation that is dimming the sun. Due to coming from a bad family life, she finds herself gravitating to her extremely awkward yet caring and cute professor ‘Dr Ryland Grace’ although she knows their age gap (22 and 34) and and professional relationship will keep them from kindling a romantic relationship… or will it?
