About the book
Are a rocket scientist and one of Hollywood’s brightest stars a match made in heaven or is it a catastrophe headed for a crash landing?
Lana loves four things: science, her cats, her friends, and her books. She’s on her way to earning her professorship when she finds out her long-term boyfriend has been sleeping with her best friend! That discovery has her hiding in the broom closet at a posh hotel.
Only, it turns out broom closets are the place to be these days.
Christian Slade, America’s sexiest man alive (as voted by fans), in a desperate attempt to escape the paparazzi finds himself in a broom closet with one sobbing occupant. Unable to leave a damsel in distress, he offers help, only to realise she has no idea who he is! It’s like he’s been given a gift. A smart, beautiful woman, who isn’t after him for fame and fortune . . .
Soon Christian is buying a Tesla to impress his scientist with his eco credentials and taking her on dates where no one will recognise him.
My Review
I am always up for a rom com. A whip smart rocket scientist and an actor. Throw in a meet cute, a little bit of mistaken identity, opposites and a friend (and ex friend) named Summer and Winter and you have a fun read. I rooted for Lana and Christian and enjoyed their chemistry. I pretty much read this in one sitting. It was relaxing, entertaining and humorous. And I always love when there is a great side character. Penny is great.
We get to see things from both sides of the relationship as both Lana and Christian narrate the story. It reminded me a little of that old movie Nottinghill.
Apparently this is part of a series but can be read and enjoyed as a stand alone as this is the only one I’ve read.
If you like easy to read, fast paced romcoms, this should definitely be on your radar.
