Cordelia Tremblay loves fitness, fairness, and fun facts. Her senior year of college is going swimmingly until her professor has to go on parental leave and the school is in dire need of someone to fill in. Having a borderline obsessive crush on a professor from the other Augury campus, she composes an email with a specific substitute in mind…

Dr. Alitha Taylor favors logic and reasoning. Head of both the cosmetic lab and Potions Department, she is on track to become the next Dean of Augury University and has no time for romance. Especially not one that could be career-ruining. When she’s asked to substitute for a semester at Aquatica Academy, Augury’s new sister campus, she sees it as a chance to show how hard working and flexible she can be.

When Alitha is approached by Cordelia about accessibility issues at the brand new campus, she seizes the opportunity to improve the school. Not only because it’s the right thing to do, but because it will further her career and show how dedicated she is to the university and its students. That is, until she finds herself unable to stay away from the curvy kraken who brought the problems to her doorstep.

Can Alitha resist Cordelia’s tantalizing tentacles? And will Cordelia’s obsession turn into something more magical?
