The Nerd Who Loved Me Thompson, Vicki Lewis

**The Nerd Who Loved Me** by Vicki Lewis Thompson is the romance novel that proves glasses can be sexier than abs (though why choose?). When brainy programmer Lainie falls for her gorgeous but commitment-phobic best friend, she decides it's time to unleash her inner vixen. Enter one makeover, several steamy encounters, and the age-old question: can friendship survive friends-with-benefits?

Thompson, a bestselling contemporary romance author with over 60 novels under her belt, serves up laugh-out-loud dialogue alongside genuinely swoon-worthy moments. This enemies-to-lovers adjacent tale explores themes of self-acceptance, taking risks, and discovering that sometimes the perfect person has been right there all along.

Perfect for fans of contemporary romance who love their heroes smart, their heroines sassy, and their steam levels cranked up. This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks is ready for its next romantic adventure.

**Reader Reviews:**
