A forbidden, secret affair proves that all's fair in love and science - from Sunday Times and New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood.

Rue Siebert might not have it all, but she has enough: a few friends she can always count on; the financial stability she yearned for as a kid; and a successful career as a biotech engineer at Kline, one of the most promising start-ups in the field of food science. Her world is stable, pleasant, and hard-fought. Until a hostile takeover and its offensively attractive front man threatens to bring it all crumbling down.

Eli Killgore and his business partners want Kline, period. Eli has his own reasons for pushing this deal through - and he's a man who gets what he wants. With one burning exception: Rue. The woman he can't stop thinking about. The woman who's off-limits to him.

Torn between loyalty and an undeniable attraction, Rue and Eli throw caution out the lab and the boardroom windows. Their affair is secret, no-strings-attached, and has a built-in deadline: the day one of their companies will prevail. But the heart is risky business - one that plays for keeps.

I did struggle to get into this book at the start, I don’t think it was the fault of the author I think I am very different from the main character Rue and that made it hard to become emotionally involved in her life. I do think that is book doesn’t subscribe to the normal romance genre and more specifically the typical gender rolls we expect from men and women in the dating scene. I think this book also has an underlying theme of neurodivergence which is also something that is not featured a lot in the romance scene.
Like any Ali Hazlewood books I found my self throughly drawn in by the end and wanting to hear more about their story.
While this book wasn’t written for me (as in I could not relate to Rue) I think there will be others who may not relate to most contemporary romance that will relate closely to Rue. Which is why I consider this an invaluable novel to have in your collection.

Not written for me but a fantastic story!

This one was a little different to Ali’s books that I’ve previously read and I absolutely loved it. I really liked that it was grittier and the characters had more emotional baggage. The way the couple came together was a nice change also

Loved this!

This book was worth the wait I love a good boy is over the top for girl romance and this is just that !

A spicier version of Ali’s usual work, but by no means does it sacrifice any of the other best Ali Hazelwood hallmarks.

Very Yearny - 10/10

I enjoyed the first half of the story. The second half was lacklustre and I started listening at 1.5 -2x speed just to get through it,

Not Ali’s best
