A Grumpy Goth Nerd. A Sunshine Jock. A College Romance That Defies All Logic.

Donovan Jensen, Goldwood University’s football captain and fraternity president, has one problem: Literary Theory 101. A failing grade means losing his scholarship and his future. His only hope? A peer tutor from the English department with a reputation for brilliance and a profound disdain for jocks.

Emerson Blackwood is a reclusive goth academic who lives in the library's Special Collections, preferring the company of dead authors to the "aggressively pedestrian" social scene of Goldwood. When Donovan—all sunshine and muscle—crashes into his meticulously ordered world, Emerson sees only a walking, talking case study in intellectual vacuity.

Their tutoring sessions are a war of wills: Donovan's persistence chipping away at Emerson's razor-sharp cynicism. But as they dissect Foucault and Keats, an undeniable, forbidden spark ignites. Stolen kisses in dusty classrooms and late-night talks in empty fraternity houses reveal hidden vulnerabilities, and Donovan dares to imagine a future where he and Emerson aren't just a secret.

When Donovan makes a public declaration of his love, Emerson's deepest fears take over. He weaponizes his intellect, dismissing their connection as a "sociological case study" to protect himself from the terrifying possibility of being truly seen and loved. Heartbroken but resolute, Donovan refuses to let Emerson's emotional walls win.

Now, Donovan must make the biggest play of his life. Armed with a line of poetry and an unshakeable belief in their connection, he'll re-enter Emerson's academic sanctuary to prove that some truths aren't found in books, but are "proved upon our pulses."

Can a sunshine jock convince a grumpy goth nerd that love is more than just a theory? Or will Emerson's fear of abandonment keep him trapped in a fortress of his own making?

"Proved Upon Our Pulses" is a steamy, emotional college MM romance featuring grumpy/sunshine, jock/nerd, opposites attract, and a love that breaks down every wall.
