Love on the Brain

Neuroscientist Bee Königswasser lives by one rule: what would Marie Curie do? So when NASA offers her the chance to co-lead a dream neuroengineering project, she says yes — even though it means working alongside Levi Ward, the coldly gorgeous engineer who made his dislike of her plain back in grad school.

On-site in Houston, Bee's equipment goes missing, her authority is undercut, and she's certain Levi is behind at least some of it. But the more time they spend together, the more she wonders whether she's been reading him wrong all along, and whether the animosity she remembers was ever the whole story.

Ali Hazelwood's second STEMinist rom-com pairs sharp workplace comedy and slow-burn tension with a heroine learning to put her own heart on the line.
