Love According to Science
by Claire Kingsley
For psychology researcher Hazel Kiegen, science is everything. Her decision to swear off dating? Totally backed by her own calculations. Just don’t ask about her missing orgasms. She hasn’t been able to science her way out of that little conundrum.
But her biggest problem? Corban Nash. He’s frustrating. Infuriating. And deliciously adorable, but that’s neither here nor there. He claims to have cracked the code to falling in love, and Hazel is determined to prove him wrong.
Corban Nash created the theory of accelerated intimacy after numerous successful tests on his friends and family. Every couple who used his questionnaire fell in love, until Corban found himself the last single guy in his social circle, and a groomsman in dozens of weddings.
The only problem is, it’s never worked on him. And science hasn’t explained why.
Despite being the lone aberrant data point, Corban believes in his research, and with his new job, he’ll have the resources to prove it. Verifying his theory right under the nose of his nemesis, Hazel Kiegen? Even better.
There isn’t a theory in existence that will make Hazel fall in love with Corban. Not even with his sexy half-smile and temptingly muscular body. But from the moment these two rivals meet, sparks fly. And when they put his questionnaire to the test, the results aren’t what either of them expect.
Author’s note: Stand-alone romcom featuring a hot nerdy hero in hate-lust with his sworn enemy. A heroine with book smarts and a fluffy cat named Erwin. So much awkwardness and geeky banter. Super hot hate sex. Badass lady friendships with a widening circle of trust. And an HEA that will leave you swooning with happiness and your heart exploding with glitter.
Caroline's Review
✮✮✮✮✮
I adore a hot nerd! Corban and Hazel were ABSOLUTELY adorable and CRAZY HOT together! Loved this story so much!
"Every time I was near her, reasonableness went right out the window, replaced by that potent mix of hate-lust I couldn't seem to shake."
They were enemies long before they ever met face to face. Hazel Kiegen is a psychologist, who sees herself as a true scientist. She's believes that Corban Nash, the guy who claims to have cracked the code to falling in love, is an imposter - a charlatan - and she's not afraid to challenge him at every turn. She's dismayed when she finds out that he's about to become her work colleague. She's even more dismayed by her unexpected attraction to him.
"I stood frozen. Transfixed by the predatory gleam in Corban's eyes. By the conflict I could see raging through him."
Corban Nash is an awkward data genius treading the soft scientific waters of psychology. He's determined to prove himself and his theories. When he's partnered up with his nemesis, he's unhappy to realise that he's immensely attracted to her. Even though they hate each other, there's no denying the irresistible lust between them.
"Why was everything I felt around her so strong? She didn't just make me mad, she made me furious. I wasn't just attracted to her, I was obsessed with her."
Hazel and Corban were EVERYTHING! They were positively on fire! The best thing about this story is how the reader can clearly see how suited they were for each other, how well they understood each other - like no one else in their lives. Their chemistry was absolutely scorching. I loved how Hazel brought out Corban's alpha, animalistic instincts. Their connection was amazing - I loved how Hazel just knew him so well and noticed the little things about him. There were times when they seemed like a long-time married couple, when they were really just still trying to figure out where they stood with each other. This was a fabulous, fun, hot read. LOVED it!!
