Publisher's summary

As a behavioral scientist, Professor Nicole Hathaway's work strips away the foolish mystique that surrounds the human mating dance. When her academic tome is treated as a viral "love manual", her ecstatic publisher books her to appear all over the US and Europe. Worse yet, her quiet, managed life has been shattered by a series of incompetent assistants. And she's certain this Lily Smith creature isn't going to be any less a burden than the last assistant they sent her. Or the one before that. Or before that....

Lillian Linden-Smith needs this job. With a relentless TV lawyer and public mob still out for her blood for crimes committed by her "American royalty" parents, getting out of the country is her only hope for anonymity. If that means cleaning up and presenting an antisocial know-it-all PhD for bookstores, clubs, and lectures, fine. Dr. Hathaway may have succeeded in driving away all the others, but not this time.

From their first meeting the sparks fly, and each is thinking: She has no idea who she's dealing with.

Freaking adorable

Loved this story, and, as usual, Abby Craden's narration! I wish the story had been longer, would have loved to see more between these two woman unfold, but i still loved the story.

Was hesitant but loved it

I wasn’t sure if I would like this because I’m obsessed with EJ noyes and I haven’t found anyone that can live up to her writing but I love this so much!!! Definitely getting more audiobooks by this author in the future

an incredible romp across Europe

I enjoyed how Lilly acted as tour guide through the European book tour. The tension was just right. Fun to look back ion the infancy of GPS technology.

The Russian adventure was spellbinding.

Abby Creden brought the story alive.

A tour of Europe, love numbers technology but love

Well all I can say is I need more of them together - the last 8 minutes of this story was not enough. Abby Craden gives Professor Nicole a voice that says so much and Lily with her ever positive outlook, priceless. The tour they take on a book tour for Nicole gives so many opportunities to see the love growing. I love this couple, their banter and how they help each other come into their true selves. They have such a good connection and I wanted more once the could admit that to each other. Love the story, so well done I felt I was in Europe.

Lilly sounds like someone I want to marry!

I wish there was more to the ending. Or a second book. But Lilly is my dream girl!

You’’ve got to love this book

When combining a good story teller and a good narrator you get a great audiobook. And this one is an excellent listen.
Engaging story, wonderful and complicated MC all with the wonderful narration of Abby Craden.
