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. Gloriously nerdy and sexy, with on-point commentary about women in STEM.”—Helen Hoang, New York Timesbestselling author of The Heart Principle Her second novel Love on the Brain was published on August 23, 2022. [11] Her third novel, Love, Theoretically was published on June 13, 2023.

But what if Levi is not the villain of this story and only thing he wants to do this accomplish their mission by working as equal colleagues. What if Levi’s awkward manners around her doesn’t mean he despises her!The sex scenes! - everyone will have a different opinion, but the sex scenes worked for me although I think they had PIV too early. I would have preferred one more scene where they did some touching/grinding before PIV, but it doesn't really matter at the end of the day. I briefly contemplate the notion that neither Levi nor I fall within astronaut height requirements, but for dramatically different reasons.” Special thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for giving me an ARC of this book for an honest review. This allowed a better building of their relationship in my opinion. Usually you spend so much time just trying to have characters actually communicate with one another, it can get frustrating. I didn't really feel that here. It felt like just the right amount to build tension without causing annoyance. Love on the Brain, on the other hand discards all that. We get Bee, who is supposedly super smart and one of the best. Tell me why does she have to be so dumb in the emotional sense?! It was irritating for me to constantly read how Levi hates her, when the guy could not be more clear in his feelings. He actually even said it!! Also, the fact that she kept interrupting/rambling every time the other person talks to her?? What's that about?! I also did not appreciate her inner monologues. It was overly done and felt like a filler. One more thing, why did she need to wear her grandmother's wedding band on her ring finger? That's just weird.

Love on the Brain follows Bee, a neuroscientist who lives through asking “What would Marie Curie Do,” has just gotten the opportunity to work on a new collaborative project with NASA, a literal dream. But when she opens up to realize she is co-leading it, she didn’t expect to be co-leading it with Levi Ward, her grad school nemesis. But Levi being in the same building as her is one of her most minor problems. Not only did Levi save her on her first day in the lab, but the equipment she needed to conduct her project is also missing. To make matters worse, the staff isn’t paying attention to her, Levi is somehow becoming an ally, and she finds herself exploring these new feelings about Levi’s new alliance that has her questioning herself. Gloriously nerdy and sexy, with on-point commentary about women in STEM.’ Helen Hoang, author of The Heart Principleit could have been a lot better, its no literary masterpiece but woah did i have the time of my life yesterday(this morning?) anyways i have to go to school now There are many things that seem to fly in the face of this fact (alliteration): My penchant for alliteration and physical inability to not call it out, for one. My deep and profound love of sweet treats and baked goods, which seems characteristic of, like, a small child, or maybe Santa, two figures on the nice end of the optimism scale. My tendency to list vaguely positive things about me. 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.
