What happens when frenemies take the experiment out of the lab and into the bedroom?

Corban Nash is a self-proclaimed data nerd with a sexy half smile and a set of abs that leave girls drooling. He developed a theory he claims will make two people fall in love. And after numerous tests on friends and family, it’s been successful for everyone who’s tried it. The problem is, it’s never worked on him. And he doesn’t know why.

Still, he’s determined to prove his theory. The only thing standing in his way? Hazel Kiegen.

Hazel refuses to be distracted by Corban’s adorable awkwardness or his temptingly muscular body. He claims to have cracked the code to falling in love, and she’s going to prove him wrong.

From the moment these two rivals meet, their chemistry is irresistible. And what’s wrong with a little sex between enemies? But when they put Corban’s theory to the test for themselves, the results are deliciously unexpected.

Author’s note: STAND-ALONE romcom featuring a sexy nerd with a great big... heart. Tons of tension and witty banter. Super hot frenemies with benefits. Badass lady friendships with a widening circle of trust. And a romantic HEA that will leave you swooning. Falling for My Enemy was previously titled Love According to Science.

Title: Quirky, Sweet and Sexy
Review: I read these books out of order and I’m really happy that I did. This was the third book I ready (I read Sophie first, then Everly, now Hazel). I had been introduced to Hazel in the other books but didn’t quite have a grasp for her and had seen the way Corbin interacted with the characters, so it was wonderful to finally read their story.They were unique characters with their nerdiness and I would say inclusion of being on the spectrum. They weren’t diagnosed-per se, but it was clear as you got to know the characters. I loved the penguin but, so heartwarming and sweet. Their banter, especially when enemies was excellent. And that copy room scene may have been the best from the series so far.I happened to find Claire Kingsley oh Kindle Unlimited and am so glad I did! These books are definitely escapism at its best and just what I need to unwind after a long day. You truly get immersed in the world and characters. Can’t wait for Nora’s book.

Title: Lovely, delightful, feel-good romance
Review: Love According to Science is a truly delightful read.It has everything you could possibly want in a romance. First, the enemies to lovers trope is always a winner. Then there’s the awesome, heartwarming relationships between Hazel and her girlfriends. There’s hot and super steamy nooky. And of course the requisite misunderstandnings and dramatics that makes a good lovestory truly great. Add to that some emotional side-stories and this read is the best.I must admit though, that I had a bit of a hard time getting into this read. To me, the characters weren’t instantly likable and especially Hazel was difficult to relate to. She was depicted as the ultimate prude, stuck-up, know-it-all with all the stereotypic characteristics of a scientist, right down to her glasses and her tendency to express herself as a scientific paper. And I perceived Corban as a rather immature and definitely asexual individual. But as the story unfolded I got more and more engaged. And, oh boy, was I invested in both of them! Once I got past the stick up Hazel’s **s and Corban’s childish games, I loved this read. Loved it! I couldn’t put my Kindle down and read way too late into the night. There were some tears and many heart-wrenching moments. With the best end imaginable.Love According to Science is the third stand-alone about the women of the Dirty Martini Running Club series. But if you ask me, this is the absolute best of them. It was simply a pleasure to read it and I recommend it to anyone who’s looking for a feel-good romance.

Title: Romantic Comedy at its Finest -- Don't Miss This One!
Review: Hazel and Colton are both scientists. She studies non-verbal communication as it relates to love, and he's developed a questionnaire guaranteed to build intimacy. He has numerous wedding invitations that prove it works, but what he doesn’t have is the empirical data to back it up, and Hazel has been challenging Colton about it online for months. Then things take an ironic turn when Colton is offered a job at the university where Hazel works. And his office is next door to hers.Hazel and Colton are enemies of the finest caliber, but unfortunately, they both have a powerful case of hate-lust. When they’re in each other's company, it's like a live wire arcing between them, threatening to torch anyone in the vicinity as things between them zip, zap and spark. In spite of the chemistry, neither one has much social acuity when it comes to dating. They're so delightfully, comically awkward with each other that I couldn’t wipe the grin off my face. Hazel and Colton are my choice for winners as Most Adorable Romcom Couple Ever!I love it when the writing is clever, witty and snappy, and this book has it in spades! Kingsley had me busting out in laughter while giving my heart the very best kind of emotional workout. Then there's Hazel and her girl tribe. They support and encourage each other and the conversations between Hazel and her gal pals are side-splittingly funny. And their snarky exchanges with the mean girls? Comedic writing gold and absolutely priceless!If you haven't read Kingsley’s work yet, change that now. With quirky, larger-than-life and eternally endearing main characters, loveable and memorable secondary characters, crackerjack wit, and hit after hit to the heart, this book is a definite must read. You’ll cling to these characters long after the last page and be ready to dive right back in for a second read as soon as you’ve finished the epilogue.

Title: I'm so happy Corban found his penguin!
Review: I'm a huge fan of Claire Kingsley's. She brings something new and fresh to every book that she writes. She constantly amazes me with how she can balance romance and emotion with comedy.Hazel and Corban are amazing! They are so funny and quirky and perfect for each other. As somewhat of a "nerd" myself, I really loved this geeky love story. While Hazel and Corban both think their level of nerd is too high to make them attractive to a 'normal' person, they are beyond perfect for each other. As a pair, they are adorable. They fit together, they love the random facts and data points the other tosses out at inopportune times, and support each other as only they can because they truly understand each other. Erwin the cat is a perfect pet for Hazel, and the fact that Corban defends him just a vehemently, and sticks up for Hazel, is amazing. It's small details, like how she named her pet and how Erwin can manipulate her, that make Claire's books so amazing. To go into the detail on what others may consider mundane, gives the characters so much depth and makes them so real that you can't help but be invested in their journey.This book is filled with witty banter, humor, emotions and so much love it's ridiculous that it can even be contained on the pages.

Review: Wow this book was hot! Hazel and Corban burned up the pages! Their chemistry is insane. I love that they understood each other and supported each other. The little pranks they played were hilarious and any time Erwin had to get in his carrier I laughed. Full of laughter, love, baking, martinis, scorching hot sexy times and an HEA. Amazing read!
