The Instant New York Times Bestseller and TikTok Sensation!
When a fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction, it throws one woman's carefully calculated theories on love into chaos.
As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn't believe in lasting romantic relationships--but her best friend does, and that's what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees.
That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor--and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford's reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive's career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding...six-pack abs.
Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.

I bought this book when I heard the movie was in production. It was on my tbr FOREVER and I just kept pushing it to the bottom. Arrived quickly with amazing quality. The art inside is amazing, I love the sprayed edges, and the foil lettering. I’d definitely throw in a warning that there is mention of sexual harassment and sextortion- but it is handled amazingly and as someone who’s experienced SA- I would say it was handled well in its depiction through the MC’s eyes.
Cute book, I wish there wasn’t so much of a miscommunication, but liked the story, the banter and characters. I wish we had a little more time with them together because I liked it so much!
Loved it. Adam is amazing, I couldn’t stop reading. It is amazing how this book help me when I wasn’t have the inspiration to continue reading
Hazelwood nailed this sweet story- the magnetism and chemistry between Olive and Adam gripped me right away. Even the side characters made me want to dig deeper into this universe.
