I am delighted to be on this blog tour ~ thanks to Rachel’s Random Resources for organizing.
check out what my fellow bloggers thought of this one ⤵
3.25⭐
Genre ~ STEM contemporary romance, romantic comedy
Setting ~ California
Publication date ~ May 24, 2023
Page Count ~ 372 (28 chapters)
POV ~ dual 3rd
Featuring ~ workplace romance, opposites attract, enemies to lovers, slow burn, some steamage
Author Content Warning: Discussion of breast cancer in the heroine’s family and the deaths of two family members (parent and grandparent). Discussion of death of a sibling from heart disease. On page sex scenes and some graphic language (steamy heat level).
Eden & Finn work together ~ she as a scientist and he in the marketing department at a pharma company. It just so happens they are anonymously conversing on a dating app too. Their boss is pitting them against each other to see which department gets more funding. An ulterior motive just might put a snag in their budding romance.
I really liked Finn and his reasoning for wanting to be in the Heart field. He had a great relationship with his parents and friend, Sam. I was a bit disappointed when he ran away from the restaurant though, and I felt like he got off too easy for doing it.
Eden ran hot and cold and was pretty mean to Finn for a good portion of the book (I know, I know it’s enemies to lovers, but still), so I never really warmed up to her. I did, however, like her passion for her work and her bond with sister, Faith.
Overall, I could have went without all the workplace drama, which was a lot to take in. I liked the STEM aspect and the cover is cute and almost fitting to the story ~ she has black hair in the story, but it looks brown on the cover, which is a small pet peeve of mine.
Book blurb:
On an anonymous online dating app, LittleMissPerfect meets HotAussie007 and it’s love at first click. In real life, a smart but spiky woman in STEM, research scientist, Dr Eden, meets a laid-back Aussie marketing manager, Finn, at the big pharma company where they both work in California. They’re forced to compete for special projects funding, and both their jobs are on the line.
Eden just wants to win at science and in life. It’s not happening! She can’t stand Finn’s too-cool-for-school, nice guy act, or his delectable forearms that keep invading her space. While Finn is stupidly attracted to Eden, when she’s not telling him off, he isn’t free to pursue her. He’s stuck in the worst position in his professional life, and doesn’t see a clear way out. He can’t tell her the whole truth about what’s going on at work or in his personal life. . . or it could all blow up in his face.
When they realise the truth about their online alter egos, dating is off the table. Can they ignore their inconvenient attraction, and work together to take down their unethical boss? Or will intense rivalry cause their IRL work lives and online love lives to collide and explode like a science experiment gone wrong?
Note: Dating Little Miss Perfect is an updated take on You’ve Got Mail for lovers of online dating romcoms, with added science, cupcakes and old movie references! This new release from award-winning author Cassandra O’Leary is a stand-alone contemporary romance novel of approximately 97,000 words.
