Harper is always in control. She has to be- that’s how she’s gotten this far in her career. When she literally runs into Dan, romance is the last thing on her mind. But as they get to know each other, she finds herself distracted by his companionship. To preserve her focus, she determines that there are rules they need to follow. As the school year goes on, what will she choose when those rules are broken?

A Brush With Love is a quirky, accepting, and joyful read. It had great anxiety representation. I listened to the audiobook and enjoyed both of the narrators. I was simultaneously fascinated and blown away by the details about dentistry and what it takes to be a dentist. One of the scenes that stuck with me was where Harper has to deal with a sexist and angry patient. These scenes are all too common in the medical world, yet when was the last time a romance book highlighted these issues? I LOVE seeing more romance books include women in STEM and highlight their struggles and triumphs. The romance scenes were a bit of a miss for me, not exactly sure why, but I still found this to be a very solid read. I also enjoyed Harper’s friends a lot, I’m looking forward to Lizzie getting her own book!
