Weather Girl by Rachel Lynn Solomon is my thirteenth book for 2022.

Ari Abrams has always been fascinated by the weather, and she loves almost everything about her job as a TV meteorologist. Her boss, legendary Seattle weatherwoman Torrance Hale, is too distracted by her tempestuous relationship with her ex-husband, the station’s news director, to give Ari the mentorship she wants. Ari, who runs on sunshine and optimism, is at her wits’ end. The only person who seems to understand how she feels is sweet but reserved sports reporter Russell Barringer.
In the aftermath of a disastrous holiday party, Ari and Russell decide to team up to solve their bosses’ relationship issues. Between secret gifts and double dates, they start nudging their bosses back together. But their well-meaning meddling backfires when the real chemistry builds between Ari and Russell.
Working closely with Russell means allowing him to get to know parts of herself that Ari keeps hidden from everyone. Will he be able to embrace her dark clouds as well as her clear skies?
I had super high expectations for Weather Girl since I absolutely loved Solomon’s best seller The Ex Talk. While the book was wonderfully written and Solomon creates a universe that I can completely envision, I didn’t feel the spark between Ari and Russell like I did in The Ex Talk. This book was also darker than Solomon’s previous books. Ari is dealing with her own personal issues that I am glad Solomon addressed but didn’t love in a romantic comedy.
Do you like behind closed door romance books? The books where they kiss and then go to the bedroom and end scene. Or do you like the book that is full on sex scene? Weather Girl is hot in the sex scene department.
Overall, Weather Girl is a well written romance book with steamy scenes. But it was not my favorite romance novel I have read.
