Stuck with You

By: Ali Hazelwood

Narrated by: Meg Sylvan

Length: 3 hrs and 22 mins

Publisher's summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Love Hypothesis comes a new steamy, STEMinist novella....

Nothing like a little rivalry between scientists to take love to the next level.

Mara, Sadie, and Hannah are friends first, scientists always. Though their fields of study might take them to different corners of the world, they can all agree on this universal truth: When it comes to love and science, opposites attract and rivals make you burn....

Logically, Sadie knows that civil engineers are supposed to build bridges. However, as a woman of STEM she also understands that variables can change, and when you are stuck for hours in a tiny New York elevator with the man who broke your heart, you earn the right to burn that brawny, blond bridge to the ground. Erik can apologize all he wants, but to quote her rebel leader - she’d just as soon kiss a Wookiee.

Not even the most sophisticated of Sadie’s superstitious rituals could have predicted such a disastrous reunion. But while she refuses to acknowledge the siren call of Erik’s steely forearms or the way his voice softens when he offers her his sweater, Sadie can’t help but wonder if there might be more layers to her cold-hearted nemesis than meet the eye. Maybe, possibly, even burned bridges can still be crossed....

To listen to Mara and Hannah’s stories look for the novellas Under One Roof, available now, and Below Zero, coming soon - available first on audio!

request for 2 narrators

i loved the story, but i wish the 3rd novella would feature 2 narrators instead of a girl just lowering her voice.

All the Feels

I loved this story. Throughout listening to it, I had all the feels. It's a quick read and a sweet story. It's also nice to get minor glimpses into the lives of her friends from the other books in this series.

cute

this story is different from the others from this author. I liked it a lot. can't wait to listen to the next onr!

I love these STEM Romances

I have recently become an Ali Hazelwood fan. Her STEM trilogy has been fun, but this specific book fell a little short for me. The book is written in alternating past and present, and is done extremely well. I love the academia and STEM that is included in Hazelwood’s books. I didn’t fall in love with these two characters as much as I have with her other books, but it won’t detour me from reading her further.

The cutest short story!

I loved this like I love all of her books! Ugh Ali Hazelwood never fails me!

Short and sweet

Yes the story and the heroine were both short but there are times that is exactly what I want.

Cute and short fun

When Sadie is at the coffee shop trying to get the croissant that she "has" to have before her pitch to a new client (or else - you know how superstition works), she's dismayed to find there aren't any left. Out of nowhere, a croissant shows up in front of her. Eric, another engineer who works at a rival firm also located in her building, offers the last one to her, silently, and leaves. Sadies runs after him to say thank you to the man she privately calls "Corporate Thor" and they strike up a conversation. They realize that they have a lot in common, starting with an immense love for "real" football. After a wonderful dinner and a night of monumentally good sex, Sadie finds out that he is actually one of the partners in the rival firm and responsible for her losing the pitch, using info he supposedly gathered during their time together. Feeling betrayed, she never answers the numerous texts and calls coming from Eric. She manages to avoid him for three weeks until Fate intervenes and locks them together in an elevator late on a Friday night. With nowhere to go and nothing to do, they will have to talk. 

Told from Sadie's POV in first person, this is a cute novella. Sadie is quirky and funny with her gazillion superstitions and love of football. All we know of Eric is through Sadie's eyes, so we first swoon, then hate, then swoon again until they reach their HEA. 

Cute story, short audiobook. Great for when you want something light and quick. 

Narration: solo narration by Meg Sylva (new to me) who does a great job.  This story is out in audio first. The e-book comes out  in June '22. 

Confusing

Story was ok but I did not like how it jumped back and forth between past and present. If I missed the opening of the chapter I’d get confused if she was in past or present mode.

cute

cute short story. quick easy listen. I really enjoy thir narrator and think she did a great job making this character come to life.

Short, but really good.

this author sure know how to convey chemistry between characters, it was short but I loved it.
