I'm Serafina Lopez, and I'm an astrologer. No, not the airy-fairy type who wears long flowy skirts and enormous hoop earrings-you know, unless I want to. I'm an uber-serious businesswoman. My popular lifestyle app, "Live for you Star Sign," is getting so big, I've just been asked to be a guest on New York's most-watched morning show. This TV segment is going to launch my career into the stratosphere. Imagine my surprise when I show up on set to find out that I'm not the only guest. They've also invited astrophysicist Ben Williams from NASA. (I'm not sure if you know this, but astrologers and rocket scientists aren't exactly sympatico.) It's 100% hate at first sight (with maybe a tiny dose of lust thrown in.) Too bad he's a total jerk who slings insults at my career. Our explosive chemistry sets records for the network's viewing audience, which means we're asked to host a weekly segment . . . together. Unable to turn down the career opportunity of a lifetime, I agree to work with Dr. Grumpy McGorgeous Nerd Pants. Just when I think it can't get any worse, the network sends us to Florida for a conference. When we arrive, we find out we'll be stuck sharing the same hotel room. And that's when it happens. Somewhere in the haze of hating him, I wind up wanting him. But there's no way I can fall for someone who doesn't respect my beliefs.… (more)

I was all in on this book until the big incident and apology. Ben should have apologized for his initial attempt to prove the app wrong, but it should have been secondary to Sera's apology for EVERYTHING ELSE! She is the one who violated Ben's privacy, gave his cat food without permission and made him sick, left without informing him, avoided his numerous attempts at contact, AND made him look like a complete jerk on television. I'm a sucker for the big romantic apology, but Seraphina is the one who should have apologized, not Ben. He owed Gwen an apology for outing her on TV, (but again, that was Sera's fault) and Sera an apology for his initial attempt to prove her wrong, but since nothing came of it and he didn't follow through with it, it wasn't a big deal. Just because Ben is the man doesn't mean he's the one who needs to do the apologizing. Sera was in the wrong and until this unfair part, I found the book enjoyable and funny. The end left a sour taste in my mouth. ( )
