Header PromotionTalk Nerdy to Me
I don't have the book on hand for reference, so if I make any errors, please forgive me!
I sat down to read this in a Books-a-Million a few weeks ago, and it was an enjoyable time for me.
Enter the hero, a geeky-but-handsome sonofagun who witnesses an explosion coming from the genius heroine's garage. From the first he's curious about what his neighbor is cooking up in there.
Meanwhile, the closet-genius heroine, whose career is modeling, is busy in her garage building a hovercraft.
This romance is what I consider a gentler one. The hero is not the played-out alpha male, although he's plenty confident and fun to be around, and there's no battle of wills between the two (those are always fun though!). The circumstance keeping these two apart is that they both insist on following their dreams, which seem to be counter to each other. She wants a place to settle down and call home, while he wants nothing to do with his old hometown--he wants to go work at Hoover Dam, in fact.
I'll probably never count Lewis Thompson's books among my favorites, but I most definitely will finish reading her nerd series, and I might even purchase a few. If the rest of them are like this one, I'll be in for many heart-warming, funny reads in the future. Thanks, Vicki, for your beautiful writing!

Sounds humorous....
Nerds? H'm, now that's a subject writers seldom tackle. I'll have to check this series out.
