Known for her smart and steamy romances like The Love Hypothesis, Love on the Brain and Deep End, Ali Hazelwood has sold more than 10 million books—and her latest novel, Bad in Bed, takes readers back to the world of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). As a doctor of neuroscience herself, Hazelwood draws from real-life inspiration for her science-themed stories and settings. When her debut novel, The Love Hypothesis went viral on TikTok in 2021, she was delighted so many people connected with a story about scientists. “At the time when I wrote my debut, I was working in STEM so I was drawn to exploring that specific setting,” she told Woman’s World in 2024.
Her latest audio-first novel Bad in Bed, out today, follows sheltered doctoral student Billie van Buren. Billie is navigating a painful breakup that leaves her questioning everything—including her confidence in and out of the bedroom. Enter Dr. Maxwell Austin, a charismatic, self-assured medical fellow, who also happens to be Billie’s longtime frenemy. When her statistical expertise brings them together, a professional partnership sparks an unexpected arrangement: Max will help Billie reclaim her confidence, one hands-on lesson at a time. But as playful banter turns into undeniable chemistry, their no-strings agreement grows into something more.
The full-cast of audio narrators includes Brooke Bloomingdale, Teddy Hamilton, Lee Osorio, Kelli Tager, Dina Pearlman, Tim Lounibos, Kalyne Coleman, Zachary Keller, Marc Vietor, Merissa Czyz, Chris Ciulla, Zac Katz-Stein, Moniqua Plante, Bradley Heller, Shakira Shute, Zura Johnson.
