Can’t Wait Wednesday – LOVE ON THE BRAIN by Ali Hazelwood

 

“Waiting On” Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, which encourages fellow bloggers to spotlight upcoming releases that we’re excited about.  It is a meme that I have  loved participating in since I first started blogging, but as Jill is no longer actively posting, from now on I’ll be linking to Can’t Wait Wednesday, hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings, which is a spinoff of the original WoW meme.

My selection for this week is LOVE ON THE BRAIN by Ali Hazelwood.  Given the popularity of the first book in the series, The Love Hypothesis, I have a feeling that Love on the Brain is going to be a much anticipated read for many romance readers this year.  I’m in love with Bee already, just from reading the synopsis and can’t wait to watch the sparks fly between her and her archenemy, Levi.  I also love that this is being described as a “STEMinist rom-com.”  I have a major love for STEM heroines so I think it’s safe to say that STEMinist rom-coms are my jam. 🙂

LOVE ON THE BRAIN by Ali Hazelwood

Publication Date:  August 23, 2022 by Berkley

 

From Goodreads:

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.

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.

Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. And sure, he caught her in his powerfully corded arms like a romance novel hero when she accidentally damseled in distress on her first day in the lab. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school—archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away.

Now, her equipment is missing, the staff is ignoring her, and Bee finds her floundering career in somewhat of a pickle. Perhaps it’s her occipital cortex playing tricks on her, but Bee could swear she can see Levi softening into an ally, backing her plays, seconding her ideas…devouring her with those eyes. And the possibilities have all her neurons firing. But when it comes time to actually make a move and put her heart on the line, there’s only one question that matters: What will Bee Königswasser do?
