Build a Nerd
Bridget Walsh spent her career establishing herself in the male dominated world of construction. While she’s in a job she loves, her love life has been neglected. After being rejected by her boss—the one man she’s had a crush on for years, the last thing she wants is to entangle herself with anyone she works with.
Tom Jarvis is about the opposite of everything she’s ever gone for. He’s a programmer and project manager, and outside of work he keeps to himself.
As the construction site supervisor and the project manager work together to build a shiny new complex, there’s an attraction neither of them can deny.
But can two people so different work?

Opposites attract in this contemporary romance. Bridget has been living her life working to achieve her dreams in a male dominated industry. She has been admiring her boss from afar, however after being rejected, she is once bitten, twice shy about starting any relationship with a co-worker.
Enter Tom Jarvis, a program manager by day and computer playing geek by night. They are complete opposites, however this does nothing to stop the instant chemistry they feel upon their very first meeting. They take things slow and it is so sweet to see their growing connection and affection for another. This was one very cute couple! Long live the nerdy boy who gets the girl!

This book is definitely different. The male lead isn’t your typical ripped, ladies man. That doesn’t mean he isn’t hot though! Imagine a lean guy with a beard and glasses, not a shabby visual right!?
Tom and Bridget are an adorable couple. Tom is awkward with the ladies whereas Bridget is confident in her sexuality and she knows what she wants! This is definitely a role reversal and it totally works! This is a good read and I liked this book better than the first one of the series, Game On.
Wendy Smith is an author I typically read without question and this book is one of the reasons why!

I really enjoyed this second book in this series about Bridget and Tom.
Bridget has worked hard to get where she is in a man’s world, she’s been in love with her boss for years but he gets engaged at the beginning of the book.
Tom is a computer geek with anxiety issues who is Bridget’s opposite and they attract.

I didn’t want to like Bridget, especially from what I gathered in book 1, but what can I say, she is one feisty no nonsense cookie that I can relate to a lot! The story in general is girl meets nerd and I couldn’t love it more! It made me laugh, cry and think a lot. Bravo on another exceptional book!

Wonderful characters, full of feels and just a truly great read
I can't remember whether I liked Bridget or not in Game On , but I loved her in this. I really liked Tom too, which just goes to show male leads don't always need to be all alpha and macho. One of my favourite things about this author's work is how normal, everyday and real the entire story feels. You find yourself reading about a group of people who you would love to be friends with, living in a town you want to move to.
Bridget is the confident one, Tom is socially awkward but together they make a perfect pair. Their chemistry sizzled, their emotions squeeze your heart and their story will make you smile, ache and swoon in equal measure. The excellent writing just wraps you up in this story and holds you in the moment. I felt as though I could almost reach out and touch the characters.
I found this easy to read, entertaining and very much enjoyed the time I spent within its pages.
