When Ethan and Mia wake up together, dazed and confused as
to what exactly happened between them the night before,
they
try to awkwardly shrug it off and tell each other bye.
When
they awkwardly end up sharing a taxi and arriving at the
same destination, Boomerang Headquarters, they find out
they
are both competing for the same job slot after their
internships. Beyond the surprising competition, their
bosses
also inform them of the no-dating rule for coworkers. As
the
tensions rise, will they give into the connection they had
before or fight their feelings to get their dreams?
BOOMERANG by Noelle August makes a delightful splash in
the
New Adult world with a story of humor, internships with
job
competition, and sexually charged banter that will keep
readers grinning. It combines the perfect and very
millennial mixture of romantic angst over past
relationships
with the undeniable pull and attraction of someone special
to possibly connect with.
The protagonists, Mia and Ethan, should have no trouble
capturing hearts with their fierce desires to make
something
of themselves, have a good time, and find some kind of
success. I particularly love the minor inclusions of their
relationships with their families. Mia is trying to find
her
own voice separate from her family, and Ethan is trying to
make his family proud of him. These two characters
complement each other in beautiful ways, and it is
extraordinarily easy to fall in love with them and their
story.
BOOMERANG has without a doubt left me wanting more. I
can't
wait to see what Noelle August writes next, and I can only
hope it will be filled with as many swoons, giggles, and
frantic page-turning as this one.
The first book in a sensational New Adult trilogy from Noelle August. Welcome to Boomerang.com, the dating site for the millennial gen with its no-fuss, no-commitments matchups, and where work is steamier than any random hook-up. Mia Galliano is an aspiring filmmaker. Ethan Vance has just played his last game as a collegiate soccer star. They’re sharp, hungry for success, and they share a secret. Last night, Ethan and Mia met at a bar, and, well . . . one thing led to another, which led to them waking up the next morning—together. Things turned awkward in a hurry when they found themselves sharing a post hookup taxi . . . to the same place: Boomerang headquarters. What began as a powerful connection between them is treated to a cold shower courtesy of two major complications. First, Boomerang has a strict policy against co-worker dating. And second, they’re now competitors for only one job at the end of summer. As their internships come to an end, will they manage to keep their eyes on the future and their hands off each other, or will the pull of attraction put them right back where they started?
