2019 RITA® Award Winner for Contemporary Romance: Mid-Length! After four lousy boyfriends in a row, chemical engineer Penny Popplestone swears off men until she can figure out why they keep cheating on her. But her no-men resolution hits a snag when the mysterious and superhumanly hot barista at her favorite coffee shop strikes up a friendship with her. Penny strives to keep things platonic, but when Caleb gives her the kiss of her life, she realizes he wants to be more than just friends. Tired of always being “good little Penny,” she throws caution to the wind and pursues a no-strings fling with the hottie barista. It’s not like they have anything in common beyond scorching physical chemistry, so what does she have to lose? Only her heart. Now, this fanfic-reading, plus-size heroine faces an unsolvable problem. What do you do when being apart is unbearable…but being together is impossible? This steamy, lighthearted romance is the third in a series of standalone rom-coms featuring geeky heroines who work in STEM fields.

This textbook has been written to appeal to A-level chemistry students. It covers the syllabuses of all the main examining boards offering A-level chemistry and also contains some material suitable for S-level students. The author places the subject in context by discussing the nature and, where relevant, the economics of the chemical industry and the wider social implications and applications of chemistry.
