Jonah Monroe might be a genius when it comes to his studies but he’s never been able to find his footing in the real world. A college graduate by the age of eighteen and a doctoral candidate at twenty-one, he doesn’t fit in with his peers and lacks the social graces that would attract friends, let alone a lover. He’s resigned himself to his status as awkward and forever alone, until one bad decision turns his world upside down.
He shouldn’t have even been in that club. He shouldn’t have let a sexy stranger buy him a drink. And he definitely should’ve have let the man kiss him like he’d never been kissed before.
Reed Matheson has done a lot of dumb shit in his short life but he never would have guessed that kissing a stranger in a bar would be the best decision he ever made. He didn’t expect the intense connection he feels for the shy, socially awkward stranger to linger long after he was gone. And he certainly never expected to see the cute guy the next morning, preparing to teach his class.
Reed is a student and Jonah is a TA. Unwritten rules or not, nothing more can happen between them, at least that’s what Jonah keeps telling himself. But Reed has never been one to play by the rules and he’s not about to start now, when for the first time, his heart is on the line.
*The V-in 403C takes place in the same world as The D-in 403B. Side characters may overlap but each book is a complete story with it's own main characters and no cliffhangers. Each book can be read as a standalone.

Jonah has focused his life on his studies. He was a child prodigy and now has a prestigious position getting his doctorate as a TA for a renowned professor in Roman History. He has no time for relationships. He lives his life the way his parents planned out graduating at 16 and getting his college degree early as well. Now he teaches students his age and older. His friends talk him into a night out at a club the night before his first class and he meets a sexy man that won't let him go. He really is freaked out the next day to see Reed in his class. Will his first night out on the town end his career?
Reed is a bisexual playboy. He has no time for relationships and the only path he has for his life is fun. His dad is pressuring him to set a major and make decisions but Reed just can't decide. Then he meets a gorgeous shy young man at a club and can't get him out of his head. Surprise surprise when this man is his teacher, now poor Jonah can't run and hide any longer.
This is book two in the 400 block series. It stands perfectly alone. There are a few recurring characters but you get enough backstory that you never get lost. The first book The D in 403D was cute and I loved how the chapters began with post-it notes from each character in their battle of words. This book was a screenshot in the body of the story and I have to admit these pulled me out of the story since I had to enlarge each one to read it then go back to the story. It was a cute idea though and maybe if it was in the headings like the first book it may not have been as distracting.
having said that, the story is cute, fun, sweet, and sexy. a perfect read when you are looking for an escape from a bad day. There was a mention of a new character at the end of the book and I hope that means more 400 block books.
