An adorable opposites-attract YA romance, from the TikTok sensation and globally bestselling author of The Atlas Six (under the penname Olivie Blake). My Mechanical Romance explores the vulnerability of first love . . . while building robots! 'Academic rivals to lovers is one of my favourite tropes and this book delivered it perfectly' - Lottie, NetGalley review Nerds are so hot. Especially battle€“robot€“building nerds. When Bel accidentally reveals a talent for engineering at school, she's forced into joining the robotics club. Enter Mateo Luna, perfect on paper: captain of the football team and the robotics club: who recognizes Bel as a potential asset, even if they couldn't be more different. And as the nights of after€“school work grow longer, Bel and Teo realize they've made more than just a combat€“ready robot for the championship: they've made a connection themselves. But with graduation approaching, their differences and what they want for their futures, threatens what they've built together. Can they survive Nationals without breaking their robots: or their hearts?
