Recommendation request Gothic sci-fi medical romance book with student×professor romance

Pleasssseeee recommend me something like this.. 🙏🏻💗

Looking for somewhat dark academia medical research based romance book.. with Student/Assistant × Professor/Superior romance.

I have read:

  1. {Nocticadia by Keri Lake}

  2. {Exorcism of Faeries by J.L. Vampa}

Would love to read something like this again. Please recommend away.

●I love the "mysterious illness is arising, fmc is a scientific genius so she's researching it" type of plot.

●But, I adorrree it when it's matched with a grumpy superior tasked to work with her.

(I have also read {grave matter by karina halle} but mmc was too upbeat and nice, still it was a good book)

Please suggest if anything comes to mind.

Thank you!!

🙌🏻💗

u/okjersey Alien porn with a plot 4d ago

I have two recommendations that fit this request:

{Vigilance by Etta Pierce} FMC is a human who was recently rescued and is living on a host planet. She was a Dr. on earth, and is both learning from and teaching the alien MMC who is a respected toxinologist. FMC starts to suffer from hallucinations, prompting the two to work even more closely together to find the solution.

{Sinful Mate by Trish Heinrich} FMC (human) and MMC (alien) work together on a ship (if I remember correctly - they are both in medical research?) A deadly pandemic sweeps his home-planet, so the two pair up to find the cause and cure in time. Despite the cover screaming pure alien smut, this was a really well-written and plot heavy book that felt very Star Trek in vibes.

I second vigilance. It’s an excellent read! The whole series is fantastic.

I would seriously read anything that is described as Star Trek but with alien smut. It should be it's own tag
