The Love Algorithm is a cute opposites attract love story with a quirky genius protagonist and a billionaire CEO. Camilla Isley always writes stories with really fun settings and this was no exception. The side characters always made me laugh and both Reese and Thomas are stubborn and likable. I love a slow burn, but I think I would’ve liked a bit more flirting from these two. This was overall a really fun read and I’ll always continue to pick up Camilla Isley stories!

This book focuses on Thomas and Reeses finding each other. Thomas is happy in his current position at his father's company, acting as nothing more than a figure head. His dad decides it's time for Thomas to get a promotion, which will lead to him running the company. Thomas is uneducated in most aspects of the business so he has to spend time in each area learning the ropes. First area is the robotics lab run by Reese. She is not excited at the prospect, to say the least, but keep getting distracted by how handsome Thomas is. They share an office and can't ignore each other.
Overall it's a cute little office romance book and I do love the representation of women in STEM, that seems to be the current trend in romance stories! The book itself is good, an enjoyable read, but some unbelievable situations and character changes.

I loved the chemistry between Reese and Thomas! They were adorable together and watching their relatives grow was a fun, sweet ride.
The addition of the playful, funny droid in the middle of it all was also a delight!
Overall, a sweet, fun story to follow!

This was such a fun and witty closed-door romance. It felt lighthearted and nerdy (in the best way) and I just couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between the MCs was so electric that sparks were flying. And that droid - so witty! Technology needs to catch up because I need my own now. Overall, this was an excellent RomCom!

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Boldwood books for an eARC in exchange for an honest review!

If you’re a fan of Ali Hazelwood, check this one out. Great romance featuring steminist lead Reese, who heads up a robotics lab. She gets tasked with overseeing Thomas, the heir apparent to the company as he prepares to take over the division. This is slow burn, instalove, dual pov, closed door romance. Even though it is closed door, the tension build up is better than most open door romances I read.

Thank you Boldwood Books for providing this book for review consideration via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

This has been my first book from this author, but it won’t be my last. I really enjoyed it. Thank you to NetGalley for access to this early read.

Great! Loved it! I have enjoyed many of Camilla Isley's books. And I have read the 2 previous books in this series. All are great. This one I was able to finish in one day. I loved that Thomas feel first, he loved Reese right from the start. He was so charming and sweet. Reese was a strong independent woman and was able to hold off for a while. But eventually Thomas wore her down. Even though he was the one holding back then. He was probably one of my favorites but K-2P was hilarious. I think we all want a K-2P!
A great story that I know I will read again someday!

I've enjoyed all the books so far in this series, and this one did not disappoint!

We follow Reese, the Head of Research and Development at Mercer Robotics who loves her work, until she's tasked with babysitting the bosses son, Thomas Mercer. This is where some slight problems of attraction start - the rule of the company is to have zero internal relationships, and given the fact that Thomas will end up being her boss.. they can't go there. But the heart wants, what the heart wants...

As with all of Camilla's books, I flew through this one. I loved the instant connection and tension between Reese and Thomas - knowing they couldn't have what they both wanted due to the rules, but following their hearts nonetheless.

I have to give a special shout out to K-2P, that little robot was adorable and sassy, I really need one for myself!

I also loved seeing the reappearances of the couples from the previous books, it's so nice to check in on them and see how they're doing.

As a woman in STEM, I was drawn to this title and had high hopes! Unfortunately I had a hard time getting into it, and I decided to DNF. I was struggling with the writing style, and I wasn't a big fan of the insta-love or the objectification of and disrespect between love interests. This just wasn't for me, but I'm sure fans of billionaire and workplace romance will enjoy it.

Thanks for the ARC of the love algorithm. I don't think I've ever read a book with such a smart and successful FMC before. I very much enjoyed Reese's character although I was overwhelmed more than once by all the technology talk. I hate the idea of AI and robots but enjoyed her droid a lot, he added a lot to the story. Well Thomas what can I say, he definitely was a great MMC.
What I loved
Closed door sex scenes
No bad language

I always enjoy reading Camilla's books and this was the same. Its a light hearted office romance with a billionaire hier and smart gorgeous heroine who works in his company's robotics department.
They are totally opposites but have chemistry that is undeniable. It was a quick read for me especially because I didn't understand most of the things about robotics so all went above my head.
My only concern was that I felt book was dragged at some points. So many thoughts were repeated again and again like how they can't be together. And also there was some back and forth on girl's end so it put me off but still a good read which is why I'm giving it a 4 star.

Reese is the director of R&D at Mercer Robotics. Thomas is the CEO's son. Reese is tasked with babysitting Thomas as he learns the robotics ropes. One night in Rome changes the game for them. Overall quick cute read. Loved the AI and robotic presence and how Thomas was willing to give it all up for Reese.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher but the ARC

The love algorithm was a cute read! Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the arc. If you like a women in stem meets billionaire romance, you’ll like this! The best character by far was the robot, though. Loved him!

It was a little insta-lovey, and I do think there could’ve been more depth/pining/character development, but if you want an easy and cute read, you’ll enjoy it!

The Love Algorithm by Camilla Isley is the third in her True Love series. This book is about Thomas Mercer, younger brother to Gabriel Mercer (the male MC from the first book in the series), and his journey to becoming to the new CEO of Mercer Robotics. Thomas doesn’t know anything about robotics so he’s prompted to shadow the director of a department, Dr. Reese Campbell. Reese is a fairly stereotypical “hot nerd”, complete with a droid friend (yep, she built a droid, people). Thomas and Reese instantly hit it off but with Thomas soon set to become Reese’s boss, this complicates their chances at a relationship. This book is coworkers to friends to lovers with more of the billionaire boyfriend trope we saw in the first book.

In each book throughout the series, we’re given insights about other characters and snippets from their stories (which overlap a LOT in timeline) which is why I don’t think these are true standalones. While I don’t think skipping around *really* makes much of a difference, the experience as a whole is much better when read in sequential order.

I’m a new Camilla Isley fan and recently reviewed her February release, It’s Complicated. I really really liked that book because of the way the characters talk to one another. The conversations sound REAL. I get a little bit of that from these books as well and still think that Isley’s strengths lie in her character dialogue but it’s not as strong here. The other thing I’ll say is that I’m not sure where Camilla Isley is from or where she grew up, but this series takes place in New York and all the characters are American and there are a few minor prose things that are decidedly NOT American. Things like saying “waters broke” instead of “water broke” or writing the day as “1 November” instead of “November 1” or "November 1st". The last one that caught my eye was referring to “blush” as “blusher”. Like it’s really NOT a big deal but it does take you out of the story a bit when your born-and-raised in Queens CEO uses phrases that seem more European.

I must be a big sucker for a cheesy albeit sweet rom com because I'm giving this book 4 stars. Reese is so not a believable character and I don’t care because her relationship with Thomas is adorable.

But IMO, don't read this one first! Go back and read Not in a Billion Years (4 stars) and then Baby, One More Time (3 stars).

Thank you so much to Boldwood Books and NetGalley for the arc! I WISH K-2P WAS MY OWN DROID PLSS reading his interactions with both Reese and Thomas had me cackling so much, he's an absolute gem. Thomas, oh Thomas I wish he was real too, my new book boyfriend. I have read a few other books from this author but this book is definitely my new favourite. Everyone pls do read this once it comes out, you won't be disappointed!

The science nerd teaching the billionaire heir the ropes of the company, what could go wrong? Fun read with a lot of Star Wars references. Thomas was great to watch evolve from a playboy billionaire to taking Reese’s love of technology seriously and wanting to learn the ropes of a job he was forced into. He knew what he wanted and went after it. K-2P had a lot to do with helping this couple along. Giving hints to how one was feeling about the other. I’ve enjoyed this series.

The Love Algorithm by Camilla Isley is the third book in the "True Love" series, following Not in a Billion Years and Baby, One More Time. I don't think it would be strictly necessary to have read the previous two books but it would more enjoyable, as there is a degree of overlap between all the stories.
This book features Thomas Mercer, a genuinely likeable guy (who just happens to be a billionaire) and Dr. Reese Campbell, Head of R&D at Mercer Robotics. When the CEO tasks Reese with babysitting Thomas as he learns the ropes at Mercer Robotics, Reese is not impressed! They get off to an unusual start thanks to some meddling by Reese's droid K-2P, who has a quirky personality and is not above a bit of matchmaking...
This is a really enjoyable fun read with plenty of humour, an easy five stars.
Thank you to Netgalley and Boldwood Books for the review copy.

Thank you Netgalley for the chance to read this!
I am a huge fan of Isley's books and this is no exception. This is the third book in the "True Love" series and follows Thomas and Reese (Thomas is Gabriel's brother from book 1 and 2). First note: while Thomas/Gabriel and a few of the other supporting characters do show up throughout the TL universe, you absolutely don't have to read either of the other two to thoroughly enjoy this one.
I'm a bit biased. I'm a PhD chemist, so I love almost any setting in the world of STEM academics, particularly when they deal with how women survive in a male dominated workplace. I also think Isley does such a great job of really highlighting workplace culture, business dealings, and career aspirations in her B story lines. I also had already loved Thomas as a character, so I was predisposed to love this coworkers/boss to lovers trope. The dual POV voices are both really strong. ALSO: there is a droid. I don't care how far-fetched a droid might seem: it made it SO fun.
I think this is just really cute. Their attraction and chemistry is really palpable and believable. This is mostly closed door but still felt really intense at times. It was just a ton of fun and grounded in a world I really enjoyed!

Well this book is all kinds of fabulous. A cast of great characters with quirks, and worries and sarcasm that brings them totally to life. There is a bit of tech speak which flavours the book and doesn’t confuse. Reese is adorable and her approach to life, her concerns and her care for her droid is central to this book being a hit. The romance is just lovely, and the addition of nights in Rome, a bribable and very funny droid, a sex tape watched by accident with a parent all add to the charm of this book. I had a ball reading it.

Third book in the series and it’s Thomas (Gabriel from book #1s brother) story! I love how it connected well into the first two stories, even going “back in time” in Gabriel/Blake and Marissa/John stories briefly. Thomas is to be the next CEO of Mercer Robotics and Reese is a department lead - they hit it off immediately and resist what they feel. This book had me laughing and not wanting to put it down! It’s a light quick read and it wrapped up all stories so well!
