STEMinist novella collection of 3 stories but all sort of interconnected as the women are all good friends. UNDER ONE ROOF is about environmental engineer Mara who after loosing a close friend/mentor was gifted a house. Well half of a house. The other half comes with a very tall, handsome and soul sucking lawyer who works for the worst company on the planet defending their oil refining ways. STUCK WITH YOU follows civil engineer Sadie who gets stuck in a elevator late on a Friday with brawny, blond Denmarkian Erik whose recently broke her heart. And BELOW ZERO follows NASA aerospace engineer Hannah who is injured and stranded at a remote Arctic research station and the only person willing to make the rescue journey is her longtime rival Ian.
All of these stories are relatively short - a snapshot - quick build or your already tuning in half way through. The reviews for these are brutal. People do not like them. In some ways I can see what/why they don't like them (honestly it says a lot about the intelligence level of the world) but I also enjoy this kind of relationship - banter, witty, sarcastic and hot. I read each one and my only complaint was that they were short stories - I wanted more flushed out, dragged on story with the characters. I think my favorite of the three was the first one. I am still a stalwart Ali Hazelwood fan and really enjoyed these.
