"Combative coworkers on the road trip from hell: one smart, sassy heroine plus one yummy, cantankerous hero multiplied by plenty of misconceptions. Susannah Nix nails the perfect blend of hilarity and sexual tension. I loved it!" --TAMMARA WEBBER, New York Times bestselling author
Adam Cortinas may be gorgeous, but he's made it clear he can't stand Olivia--and the feeling is one hundred percent mutual. Too bad, because in order to bring the company's new power plant online, they're stuck with each other for the next week.
When their travel plans go horribly awry, Olivia finds herself stranded in the middle of nowhere with Adam, AKA the bane of her existence.
He's in her space and in her head. All the forced proximity is driving Olivia insane. That's the only explanation for these FEELINGS she's suddenly having.
But it doesn't change anything. They still hate each other.
Right?
Applied Electromagnetism is the fourth full-length novel in a series of standalone rom-coms about women in STEM fields.
My Review:
Wow. I laughed. I cried. I laughed while crying and cried while laughing. As you might have already guessed, I found this story to be a bit of an emotional roller-coaster. I love Olivia, just like I’ve loved every one of the heroines in this series. I can so easily relate to these geeky, socially awkward nerd-girls. They are totally my people. It was really, really easy to dislike Adam at first. I was Team Olivia all the way, so I was one hundred percent behind her desire to inflict bodily harm on him. I loved watching him open up to Olivia, becoming more real, more human. I both love and hate that we don’t get the chance to live in our hero’s head. I crave knowing what’s going through Adam’s thoughts, but I don’t think it would be quite the same story if we weren’t experiencing Olivia’s angst at not knowing what’s going to happen next. And speaking of “what happens next?”, I can’t wait to see who the next couple to fall will be. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
