A forbidden, secret affair proves that all's fair in love and science—from 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.
My Review:
I utterly adored this book! I love her writing, and this latest book was so entertaining, I loved the set up, and I couldn't wait to see how they were going to deal with their competing interesting but growing attraction. It was just so good and I couldn't get enough!
These two and the connection were pretty steamy! That they were on opposing sides, but still had that connection, I just loved it! And their conversations where they offered up hard little truths about themselves and their past, just deepened their bond, and I loved that!
The one thing that I really wanted to know, was what happened between Eli and his group, and Florence. It kept being alluded to, that Rue didn't know the truth about what Florence was like. So it had to be something. And oh, the truth hurt when it came out!
That ending was pretty satisfying! I loved how it wrapped up the story, with her relationship with Eli and with Florence, and that they both went through it, but that they were happy with what the future held. It was just so much like a nice warm hug and I loved it!
This book was another fantastic read and I can't wait to read more by Ali Hazelwood!
