About this ebook

2019 RITA® Award Winner for Contemporary Romance: Mid-Length!


After four lousy boyfriends in a row, chemical engineer Penny Popplestone swears off men until she can figure out why they keep cheating on her. But her no-men resolution hits a snag when the mysterious and superhumanly hot barista at her favorite coffee shop strikes up a friendship with her. 


Penny strives to keep things platonic, but when Caleb gives her the kiss of her life, she realizes he wants to be more than just friends. Tired of always being “good little Penny,” she throws caution to the wind and pursues a no-strings fling with the hottie barista. It’s not like they have anything in common beyond scorching physical chemistry, so what does she have to lose? 


Only her heart.


Now, this fanfic-reading, plus-size heroine faces an unsolvable problem. What do you do when being apart is unbearable…but being together is impossible?


This steamy, lighthearted romance is the third in a series of standalone rom-coms featuring geeky heroines who work in STEM fields.

this book was not really funny, I wouldn't call.it a romantic comedy. I couldn't even finish the book, Caleb annoyed me toouch. he was always so uncertain with Penny and continued to be uncertain because he was moving away in a month and they were now both single. he had his chance to date her before she got with her cheating bf. it seems like he lacks confidence.

Great, really enjoyed it. Loved how Penny stepped out of her comfort zone & asked Caleb for what she wanted & didn't take no for an answer

Fabulously lovely story of two good individuals who are ideally paired by fate, despite having quite different personalities and origins, as they grow in unconditional affection, empathy, and trust!
