"I couldn't put it down! I loved every sentence! The writing is outstanding, the setting entrancing, and the characters stole my heart. Fresh, flawed and instantly lovable, you'll root for Jo and Adam at every turn." --- S. C. Stephens, #1 New York Times bestselling author
Their passion burned hotter than the stars . . .
For Josephine "Jo" Kramer, nothing has ever been easy. When she earns a summer internship in Puerto Rico, working at one of the world's preeminent scientific facilities, she'll let nothing distract her. Not her own insecurities, not the arrogant scientists, and definitely not her tall, chiseled research partner, Adam.
For Adam McCay, physics is simple-it's women who are complicated. Especially brilliant, beautiful ones like Jo. From the moment they meet, he can feel the heat smoldering deep beneath her icy exterior. And Adam knows just what it will take to make Jo melt . . .
Under the endless stars of a tropical sky, Jo and Adam indulge their every desire. But as their internship comes to an end, their perfect island paradise is threatened. Was their time together a summer fling? Or is their passion hot enough to last the long winter nights?

This was my first read from Jeanette Grey and I will be definitely reading more from her.

When the Stars Align is a book about a group of elite students who are selected to spend the summer in Puerto Rico to work with scientists in their chosen field.

Jo Kramer is a woman who is so tough and strong on the outside that she even gives off a stay away vibe to any who who tries to get close. She is hell bent on proving herself on this trip and is only focused on work. Jo has never really been shown any love or affection and really doesn’t have anyone in her life.

Until Puerto Rico, Jo thinks this is a great way to be as she can’t get hurt. What Jo doesn’t see coming Is how much she will change on this trip.

Adam is a guy hung up on an Ex, he is on the trip to further his future career but he is also glued to his phone waiting for his ex Shannon to call. When Adam meets Jo for the first he is literally floored as Jo uses self defense thinking he’s a creeper, but even with a bruised pride he sees something that perks his interest.

The relationship that develops is a friendship and mutual respect that quickly develops into so much more Adam really sees beyond Jo’s hard edges and finds the real Jo that even she doesn’t know exists.

This is definitely not a smooth ride for either of these two love birds, Jo fights her feelings every step of the way and Adam also has to let go of Shannon’s hold over him.

This is a beautifully written love story about so much more, it’s got some crazy HOT scenes between the two, there are scenes that will make you laugh, there are some heartfelt scenes when Jo deals with some family issues and I found it really reaches into you and makes you root for the vulnerable woman behind the disguise, it teaches us friendships can be unexpected and some people are just meant to be. Especially when the Stars Align.

I loved Adam and Jo’s story and highly recommend this book. It’s such a well written book that will have you reading through the night.
