About this ebook

Aerospace engineer Esther Abbott doesn’t believe in love, but she’s perfectly happy to hate her annoying screenwriter neighbor, Jonathan. Until she’s forced to strike a devil’s bargain with him: he distracts her best friend from a mouth-breather ex, and in return Esther will help him with the sci-fi script he’s writing.

Her patience is put to the test when it’s time to fulfill her end of the deal. But the more time she spends with her nemesis, the more hate turns into attraction—and attraction into something much deeper. As Esther’s carefully constructed defenses start to crumble, will love be her undoing or her salvation?

This sweet, enemies-to-lovers romance is the second in a series of standalone rom-coms featuring heroines who work in STEM fields.

Ratings and reviews

Started so slow I almost gave up, but I am so glad I continued. So much emotion at the end and written so well I felt the "love" from Esther. Wow! I debated on 4 or 5 stars and settled on 4 due to its slow start.

It's been awhile since a book made me cry, but this one gave me all the feels... Great story lines about work, crazy families, friendships, and, of course, love.

Loved it-once I started it was so hard to out down. Thank goodness it was on a weekend, housework just had to wait 😉
