ABOUT THESE BOOKS The Kiss Quotient It's high time for Stella Lane to settle down and find a husband - or so her mother tells her. This is no easy task for a wealthy, successful woman like Stella, who also happens to have Asperger's. Analyzing data is easy; handling the awkwardness of one-on-one dates is hard. To overcome her lack of dating experience, Stella decides to hire a male escort to teach her how to be a good girlfriend. Faced with mounting bills, Michael decides to use his good looks and charm to make extra cash on the side. He has a very firm no repeat customer policy, but he's tempted to bend that rule when Stella approaches him with an unconventional proposal. The more time they spend together, the harder Michael falls for this disarming woman with a beautiful mind, and Stella discovers that love defies logic. The Bride Test Khai Diep has no feelings. Well, not big, important emotions - like grief. And love. He thinks he's defective. His family knows better - that his autism means he just processes emotions differently. When he steadfastly refuses to consider a relationship, his mother takes matters into her own hands and returns to Vietnam to find him the perfect bride. As a mixed-race girl living in the slums of Ho Chi Minh City, Esme Tran has always felt out of place. So when the opportunity arises to go to America and meet a potential husband, she can't turn it down. This could be the break her family needs. Seducing Khai, however, doesn't go quite as planned. Esme's lessons in love seem to be working... but only on herself. She's hopelessly smitten with a man who's convinced he can never return her affection. As Esme's time in the United States dwindles, will Khai let his head catch up with his heart? Will he find the strength to let go, and let love in? MY REVIEW With exquisite characters that I connected with instantly and love connections that I became obsessed with, it is no wonder that I could not put down both The Kiss Quotient and The Bride Test and devoured them one after the other. In both of these books we are introduced to beautiful characters that are struggling with their romantic lives - well, their families are struggling to be more precise. In The Kiss Quotient, we meet Stella who has a super successful career and loves her job analysing data but she also wants to please her mother who wants to see her married with babies. Stella has found that her brief interludes with men have been anything but romantic so she decides to approach it like she does everything else in her life - analytically. So that means hiring a man that can teach her how to be with someone. But she didn't bet on Michael and how he makes her feel. Michael has his reasons for doing what he does but meeting Stella changes everything for him, but he believes Stella deserves someone so much better than him. Can their business arrangement become so much more? In The Bride Test, we get to know Khai who believes that he is incapable of big emotions like love and grief. He works, he trains, he spends time with his family, and that is his life. So when his mum brings him home a bride and gives them the summer to figure out if they're a match, he is shocked. He doesn't want Esme in his space, changing everything, and throwing him out of his routine. But Esme understands and accepts Khai in a way that nobody has ever done before and feelings soon blossom even though Khai is certain that he cannot fall in love. As both Esme and Khai get closer to the time when they are supposed to get married, will they find their happily-ever-after or will Khai let Esme go forever? Romance, sizzling heat, laughter, and tears, these books have got it all and I cannot wait for the next book in this series (The Heart Principle on 2nd September)! Stella and Khai are engaging and loveable characters and I was instantly invested in both of their stories and wanted them to find romantic happiness. Both of these books are compelling, wonderfully addictive, and I genuinely believe should be on everyone's shelf. THE KISS QUOTIENT and THE BRIDE TEST by Helen Hoang are truly excellent from start to finish and a must-read for all romance readers. AUTHOR BIO Helen Hoang read her first romance novel in high-school and has been addicted ever since. In 2016, she was formally diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder in line with what was previously known as Asperger's Syndrome, Her journey inspired The Kiss Quotient.
