A forbidden, secret affair proves that all’s fair in love and science—from New York Times bestselling author Ali Hazelwood.

Rue Siebert might not have it all, but she has enough: a few friends she can always count on, the financial stability she yearned for as a kid, and a successful career as a biotech engineer at Kline, one of the most promising start-ups in the field of food science. Her world is stable, pleasant, and hard-fought. Until a hostile takeover and its offensively attractive front man threatens to bring it all crumbling down.

Eli Killgore and his business partners want Kline, period. Eli has his own reasons for pushing this deal through—and he’s a man who gets what he wants. With one burning exception: Rue. The woman he can’t stop thinking about. The woman who's off-limits to him.

Torn between loyalty and an undeniable attraction, Rue and Eli throw caution out the lab and the boardroom windows. Their affair is secret, no-strings-attached, and has a built-in deadline: the day one of their companies will prevail. But the heart is risky business—one that plays for keeps.

Poxa, Ali... Eu entendi que a senhora queria escrever um romance mais adulto e com bastante hot, mas não precisa esquecer que o livro tem que ter um enredo, e que esse enredo tem que ter continuidade, ir pra frente. Exceto os últimos 20%, que acontecimentos beeem mixurucas, todo o restante do livro é uma repetição sem fim de cenas hot, encontros por coincidência e o mesmo blá blá blá da protagonista sobre não confiar nas intenções da empresa do menino. Os outros personagens não fariam a menor diferença se não exiatissem, por que não tem um gota de personalidade e não fazem o mínimo pela história. Enfim, A Hipótese do Amor segue sendo o melhor da autora.
