Blurb:
At 28, with a Ph.D under her belt and a meteoric rise to head of Research and Development at Mercer Robotics, Reese feels her decision to put her career first has worked out pretty well for her. Sure, she doesn’t have many personal relationships to speak of, but she does love her team and they like her too.
So when she’s called to the Big Boss’s office and told she will be looking after his son while he does a rotation in her lab, she’s not thrilled that her hard work and achievements have boiled down to being a glorified babysitter – especially to a billionaire playboy with zero experience of mechanical engineering.
But then tall, blond Thomas walks into her office, and Reese realizes this assignment is going to be even harder than she thought. Because the CEO’s son is not only extraordinarily gorgeous, chiseled, and charming… he’s also on course to become her new boss one day, and so extraordinarily out of bounds. As the pair get to know each other, can Reese hold her nerve and her beliefs, or will she fall victim to the billionaire charm?
A gorgeously funny enemies-to-lovers, work-place rom com, perfect for fans of Sarah Adams, Lynn Painter and Ali Hazelwood.

My Review
I really enjoyed the last book in this series, Baby, One More Time, and this one even had some of those characters for us, which I loved! Reese was a fun STEM character, in charge of a robotic department of the company that Thomas’s father was the CEO of. Her department sounded like a bunch of fun nerdy people, I’d love to hang out with them! And her AI robot, K-2P, was hilarious! Such a fun part of the story.
Thomas was definitely the sunshine to Reese’s grumpy, although it wasn’t really that she was grumpy. She was just a woman trying to make sure she’d proven herself in a mostly male dominated field. Thomas was more than just sunshine though. He was really a genuinely nice guy, all around charming and easy to be around as well as work with.
They fought their attraction, both having such good reasons for it, and I love that Thomas seemed to fall first in this story. While Reese definitely felt the attraction pretty quickly, she kept him at arm’s length for good reasons based on her past as well as her career. We got a bit of a hint at what would kind of become their big dramatic third act issue with the very first paragraph of the story. But when it happens, it still surprised me because I’d kind of forgotten about it as the story went on and no further mention was made. And I love the way all of the relationship was wrapped up for our HEA at the end. I like that we may have been unsure about Thomas’s family, but the way it worked out was realistic and I loved it.
Another great story from this author, but now I need to go back because I missed the first one in this series, and I need to know Thomas’s brother Gabriel’s story with his girlfriend Blake.

I enjoy STEM romance so I might have to try this series.
I think this is the only one I’d call STEM in the series, the second book wasn’t really. But the stories are fun and easy to read!
This looks like a different type of love story. Thanks for sharing.
I enjoy stem romances and should try this series.
Now I think this is really the only one I’d call STEM in the series, but it was good!
This sounds cute and I just love a sweet hero. And Reese doesn’t sound like a truly grumpy person. I can totally understand her disposition coming up against those in a male dominated field. Happy to hear you enjoyed it, Lisa!
Her grumpiness didn’t last long, she really was a pretty fun person!
I do love a genuinely nice hero mixed in with the typical grumpy ones. Cool job she’s got.
That part of the story was really fun for sure!
