4.5-5 starsThis was a great read. I enjoyed it a lot. Cami and Ivan are a good combo and I was totally rooting for them.Cami lives next door to Ivan. The area she lives in has a lot of "Geek" type men as neighbors, many of whom end up hanging at her place a lot. Ivan is among the people that hang out but he's never shown any interest in her as a woman. She's convinced he feels nothing for her; unfortunately for her, she totally has the hots for him. Things change when Ivan asks her to help him learn to socialize better in an effort to do better at fundraisers for work.Ivan is literally a rocket scientist. He graduated from college with his undergrad at 15 (and that's only because his parents held him back). He's very smart but seems to almost be slightly autistic. He reminds me of a hotter version of Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory. He has a strict schedule and regulation of most things in his life in an effort to control the world around him. I guess because of this it shouldn't be surprising that he feels the need to control things in sexual situations as well which is why Ivan feels comfortable with BDSM, as a Dom he has control.TBH, I'm not sure if Ivan set up the lessons to try to get in to a relationship with Cami or he really just wanted the lessons and the relationship just came about...or maybe a combo of both (I suspect this one). Cami has no real knowledge of BDSM so it's interesting to see them explore it together while she's also trying to teach him how to behave better around others.I really liked Ivan and Cami and was happy to see them together. Of course there were difficulties because Ivan just doesn't comprehend certain things about women and relationships which leads to some issues/misunderstandings that need to be worked out.I really enjoyed this story. I think that Cami and Ivan are a great couple and I really loved reading their story. This was good enough that I'll be rereading it and am planning to read the next in the series. I'm glad I bought this, it was worth the read. I'd recommend it. Thumbs up! :D*note - The first time I read this book it was the ebook format. I just did a reread but this time I listened to the audiobook. I actually think it was better the second time around. The narrator is great in the audiobook version! :D
