A football player, a physical therapist, and a very unprofessional-on-purpose injury.
Basil Rothsteller is a Stanford freshman on a football scholarship who would rather be anywhere else—preferably in a chemistry lab studying for his pre-med classes. His ticket out of the football "straitjacket"? A "career-ending" hip flexor injury that's... mostly fine. He just has to convince the university's student health center he's totally broken.
Enter Lucien, the handsome, 32-year-old physical therapist who is definitely not paid enough for this. He's professional, focused, and just trying to heal from his own past. He is absolutely not supposed to fall for his new patient.
Basil's plan to "fake it" goes spectacularly wrong. His first appointment ends with a mortifying... mishap all over the table. His second involves an ill-advised, panic-induced grope. He's pretty sure he's the worst patient in history.
But when a towed car strands them in San Francisco, Basil's only solution is his estranged NFL-star dad's emergency credit card. One presidential suite and two beds pushed firmly together later, their relationship is about to get a lot more physical.
Student Health is a hilarious and steamy age-gap, forced-proximity romcom about faking an injury, finding your first love, and learning that some of the most embarrassing moments make for the best beginnings.
