Intermediate Thermodynamics

Chemistry Lessons, Book 2

By: Susannah Nix

Narrated by: Caitlin Kelly

Aerospace engineer Esther Abbott doesn't believe in love, but she's perfectly happy to hate her annoying screenwriter neighbor, Jonathan. Until she's forced to strike a devil's bargain with him: he distracts her best friend from a mouth-breather ex, and in return Esther will help him with the sci-fi script he's writing.

Her patience is put to the test when it's time to fulfill her end of the deal. But the more time she spends with her nemesis, the more hate turns into attraction - and attraction into something much deeper. As Esther's carefully constructed defenses start to crumble, will love be her undoing or her salvation?

Intermediate Thermodynamics follows in the tradition of contemporary romantic comedy favorites like Penny Reid, Sally Thorne, and Jennifer Crusie. This enemies-to-lovers romance is the second in a series of standalone rom-coms featuring geeky heroines who work in STEM fields.

Contains mature themes.

Light Humor, enjoyable story

The second in the series and I think I may have laughed just a little more with this one than the first. Great characterization and narration. Just enough humor to keep you wanting to listen, you even get some of the characters from the first book. All in all good use of my time.

Isn't Agressive a good word?

So I liked the book but this comes in to mind, im male by the way, and me and my sister is always called aggressive, cause we are and we are proud of it, we always take it as a compliment and say thank you, however in this audiobook it was used it such a bad way that I think author's least favorite word is aggressive, or is agressive used in bad way in U.S?

Rocket Science is fun’

A sweet and sexy romance full of snark and charm. The narration was amazing and brought the story to life. Really enjoyed it!

Sweet

Very sweet story! Enjoyable "listen"! Looking forward to book 3....More nerdy love ahead! ❤

Loved the whole series

4 stars: The books / series were good, and based on my audience - i recommend rereading it = i would recommend it to others.
I only give 5 stars in my top 10% of books.

I tell others about the story and or book(s) in regular conversation to expose the author.

Light romance reading

Contemporary romance
Not as good as the first one, but a Nice, fun romance between two who appear to be antithetical. Enjoy!

So much fun!

This book was an absolute blast. The characters were interesting and the story kept itself interesting. By the end i was fully invested.

Great story to fill out a PC buzzword-bingo-card

I wanted to like it. But no, the main character is shallow emotionally stunted person, who seems to have a complete lack of self awareness. I'm not sure if this is the characters fault or that of the author. Example, when told during a performance review that she was aggressive, well that clear misogyny, because men never hear that in a review (since we are on the topic of double standards, why is it allowed for women speak with authority on the male experience, but if a man did the same he would be laughed out of the room, and rightly so). Apparently, a female being asked to extend basic human courtesy to her team workers is the equivalent of pouring holy water on vampires. I will caveat that I stopped listening after four hours, as I just couldn't go any further, so it might have gotten better at the end. The first book was pretty good.

cute

not really an enemies-to-lovers thing. Esther was mildly annoyed at him in the beginning she didn't HATE him. but cute nonetheless

Just say it!

I really like all the heroines that works in STEM field!!! As one said, and will repeat it “It just has the right mix of humor, real characters, and nerdiness to engage and delight me.” Man, I truly love the audio narrator, Caitlin Kelly, but she does so many other books that I have already listened to. She just have a smooth voice & could definitely make those voices capture personality of each character so well!
