The Dear Professor series consists of two books: Kissing Tolstoy (2014) and Kissing Galileo (2019). Each book features a romance set in an academic environment, with the titles referencing famous thinkers. Reid uses the university setting to pair her characteristically intelligent heroines with equally bookish love interests.
The academic backdrop fits naturally with Reid’s brand of brainy romance. The series is lighter and shorter than her larger interconnected works, making it a good entry point for readers curious about her style.
