An Instant New York Times Bestseller
A #1 LibraryReads and Indie Next Pick!
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis comes a new STEMinist rom-com in which a scientist is forced to work on a project with her nemesis—with explosive results.
Like an avenging, purple-haired Jedi bringing balance to the mansplained universe, Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project—a literal dream come true after years scraping by on the crumbs of academia—Marie would accept without hesitation. Duh. But the mother of modern physics never had to co-lead with Levi Ward.
Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. And sure, he caught her in his powerfully corded arms like a romance novel hero when she accidentally damseled in distress on her first day in the lab. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school—archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away.
Now, her equipment is missing, the staff is ignoring her, and Bee finds her floundering career in somewhat of a pickle. Perhaps it’s her occipital cortex playing tricks on her, but Bee could swear she can see Levi softening into an ally, backing her plays, seconding her ideas…devouring her with those eyes. And the possibilities have all her neurons firing. But when it comes time to actually make a move and put her heart on the line, there’s only one question that matters: What will Bee Königswasser do?
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
When it comes to making STEM sexy, Ali Hazelwood is the queen—and she really turns up the heat in this fun romance. Purple-haired neuroscientist Bee Königwasser, a Marie Curie enthusiast, is shaking off a bad breakup with an awesome career opportunity at NASA. But there’s one catch: She’ll have to share space and leadership with her grad-school nemesis, the tall, dark, and handsome Levi Ward. Hazelwood, a real-life neuroscientist herself, surrounds the couple with memorable characters who are extremely intelligent and share a contagious passion for science and engineering. Plus, the physical tension between Bee and Levi is hot enough to make hydrogen combust. Beyond the red-hot romance, we really appreciate how Hazelwood spotlights the rampant misogyny women in STEM face. Brooke Bloomingdale’s narration captures both the sarcastic banter and new-love butterflies in perfect proportion. Feed your brain, heart, and libido with this PhD-level love story.
