This is a cute romcom with a Freaky Friday twist. Serena is from CA but living near Geneva, Switzerland to work with The Large Hadron Collider. She’s a quirky nerd that loves physics and has no intention of getting married or having kids. Henry is an uptight man from England that also loves physics, but he’s Serena’s opposite. He is regimented, obsessed with cleaning, and can’t wait to meet the woman of his dreams, get married and have kids. The night before Henry starts work at The Large Hadron Collider he meets Serena and they have one incredible night together. But when Henry turns out to be Serena’s new boss, they realize their one night was a mistake never to be repeated. Except neither one can stop thinking about the other. One night during an electrical storm they are working together when a mishap with the collider occurs and suddenly they switch bodies. Let the awkward hilarity ensue.
The author did a great job depicting the problems one would have if they suddenly switched bodies with a member of the opposite sex, let alone with someone that is your complete opposite. It provided several very funny situations, particularly since Serena was already a total smart-ass. When family events and emergencies cause them to visit both of their families, they start to understand why the other feels so strongly about marriage and children. It’s a huge wake-up call for them both, and ultimately brings them closer together. I enjoyed the humor, and the “awakening” each had into the plight of the other. It’s a good reminder that you need to be patient with people and try to really understand where they are coming from before you judge.
This sweet romance will make you feel and the feels and make you feel all warm and tingly. I listened to the audio book and the narrator did a great job. This is book 2 in the Ghosted series but can be read as a stand alone. I haven’t read the first book, and didn’t feel lost at all.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley and W. W. Crown, an imprint of Swift & Lewis Publishing, LLC. All opinions are my own.
