My Summer Fling Is My Professor
"I'm not here to fall in love, but I travelled here by myself. Visiting Italy together while pretending to be lovers would definitely be an amusement, don't you think?" After a brutal divorce and a tumultuous year, twenty-seven year old Remy Estera suddenly decided to spend an entire summer in Italy all on his own, at least he thought it would be. However, the night he arrived, he was approached by a man named Jay who suggested to be pretentious lovers for the duration of their summer vacation, without it any strings attached. "To prevent us from falling for each other, let's refrain from sharing any personal details about one another. I'm not going to tell you my real name and you shouldn't either. And when we leave this place, we forget any of this happened." Remy thought he would be able to follow through, but by the end of summer, he was deeply infatuated by this stranger that he was convinced they were soulmate. They spent their days touring the city together, sharing food, caressing their naked bodies and making love as if they had been lovers in another life. Until one morning, Remy woke up and Jay had vanished, no trace of him left. He thought it was going to be the last he ever heard of Jay. He thought he would never find his soulmate again, that this summer fling would remain all it was-a summer fling. What a shocking surprise it was for Remy who, at the start of his fourth year of university, entered his senior class and found the stranger standing at the front, wearing a suit. My summer fling is my professor?!?!?!
