It seemed like a Christian romance that wasn't marketing itself that way.  The book has a line about not being catty to women and then so far has slut-shamed every woman who isn't part of the main friend group, disparaging both their actions and appearance.

FMC gets offended because an IT person at a new job says hi and "let me know if you need any help!" and takes that as him being sexist because she's also in IT.  What????  

Not to mention the numerous times so far that they've mentioned that MMC dates around BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN HE'S SLEEPING WITH ANYONE EVER as if that needs to be said more than once (or at all).

Just ugh with the attitude of this book.

This was a sweet romance based on the trope in the title. I really loved both leads, and I’m a sucker for a good geeky lead in a romance.
