"When forced to work on a project with your nemesis, it's best to stick to the science. Further research could trigger explosive results. Like an avenging, purple-haired Jedi bringing balance to the mansplained universe, Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project--a literal dream come true after years scraping by on the crumbs of academia--Marie would accept without hesitation. Duh. But the mother of modern physics never had to co-lead with Levi Ward. Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. And sure, he caught her in his powerfully corded arms like a romance novel hero when she accidentally damseled in distress on her first day in the science lab. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school--archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away. Now, her equipment is missing, the staff is ignoring her, and Bee finds her floundering career in somewhat of a pickle. Perhaps it's her occipital cortex playing tricks on her, but Bee could swear she can see Levi softening into an ally, backing her plays, seconding her ideas... devouring her with those eyes. And the possibilities have all her neurons firing. But when it comes time to actually make a move and put her heart on the line, there's only one question that matters: What will Bee Königswasser do?"--

Hat Spaß gemacht zu lesen, ziemlich vorhersehbar aber auch sehr süß, sehr schön feministisch
also man kann es lesen aber es ist jetzt nichts was man gelesen haben muss es ist nichts besonderes wo man danach wo sagt
🧑🏼🚀🧬⛑️💘🐈 Liebe liebe liebe wie Ali Hazelwood aus Naturwissenschaft und Nerds so tolle Liebesgeschichten zaubert!!
Achtung kleine Spoiler! Es hat eigentlich echt gut angefangen und dann leider sehr stark nachgelassen. Erstens ist Bee mir ein bisschen zu dumm, dafür dass sie eine der besten Neurowissenschaftlerinnen ist. Zweitens: Warum müssen Frauen so oft als so schwache Pick-Mes dargestellt werden. Ständig ohnmächtig zu werden ist keine quirky, süße Eigenschaft, sondern nervig. Und dann auch noch bei einem Tarantel-KUSCHELTIER. MEHRMALS HINTEREINANDER!!! Peinlich! Levi ist mega. Er ist transparent und ehrlich und mega der süße und ich kann nicht verstehen wie er sie lieben kann. Sie ist die ganze Zeit mega ignorant seinen Gefühlen gegenüber, ignoriert ihre eignen Gefühle und jegliche Instinkte. Ich hab ganz oft Geschichten über Marie Curie übersprungen und auch Momente, in denen sie etwas „realisiert“ hat, was eigentlich wirklich sehr offensichtlich war. Und das mit Guy am Ende war so überdramatisch. Als er die Pistole rausgenommen und mit Levi gerungen hat, hab ich mich basically auf den Boden geschmissen vor Lachen. Naja, alles in allem das schwächste von Ali Hazelwoods Büchern, von denen ich normalerweise voll der Fan bin.
“There hasn’t been anyone else. Since the first moment I saw you. Since the first moment I talked to you and made an ass of myself, there hasn’t been anyone else.” I LOVED Levi. The yearning, the tension and the plot twist... It was a good book, but maybe a little to much Marie Curie
