Not a 5 star for me and that was surprising. I thought this would probably be one of my top 5 of the year and I'm sad it wasn't.
I enjoyed it a lot, it was super entertaining BUT the miscommunication trope is tricky and it annoyed me in a very specific moment here.
Miscommunication isn't blatantly lying. Olive lied to Adam's face when he overheard her admitting she had feelings. That scene was unnecessary, the author could've done it differently. If this was a YA book, I'd get it, it would be typical YA behavior: scared to admit feelings, leading to lying just to save face. But this is an Adult book. So, I was not a fan of that.
Anyway, despite that annoying me and the steamy scenes having a few weird sentences that I didn't quite enjoy and found awkward (it needed a little editing), I was soooo invested in the romance.
Loved the STEM environment and the slow burn. The banter between Olive and Adam was fantastic and they were adorable together.
I'm curious about what AH will write next.
