This was a super fun STEM romance! I've read a few of these types of books but I think this has to be my favourite.

Scientist Clara first met engineer Henry when he was working on his PhD. Seven years later, Dr Clara Clandy heads up the cardiovascular team at a pharmaceutical company and they are about to collaborate with FraserTech, Dr Henry Fraser's company. 

After seven years away from each other, Clara and Henry's friendship continues like no time has passed. They catch each other up on the last seven years of their lives and we learn that they lost contact when Henry moved to work in the States. 

What Clara remembers most about Henry was that every woman he came in contact with was taken in by The Hot Henry Effect but he never noticed. He was only waiting for one person.

I loved the characters of Clara and Henry and even the supporting characters were so much fun. We get a little depth when it comes to Clara's trust issues and Henry's pining. All round, a nice little romance!
