The Tip Theory

Keeley Jones is a full-time college student, part-time waitress, and undercover sociologist collecting data for her thesis on gender dynamics and "perceived attractiveness in tipping behavior."

Every shift is a new experiment.

Her theory is airtight. Her thesis is brilliant. Until he shows up.

The new bartender-moody, tattooed, devastatingly magnetic-shatters her neat, predictable data with a single look. Suddenly, Keeley's research shifts from numbers to nerves, from spreadsheets to skin.

Late-night playlists, half-drunk philosophy debates, and the kind of texts that burn through your screen. He's chaos, and she's supposed to be methodical. But when your subject starts flirting back, is it still research-or something much riskier? 💖✨
