The Applicant by Aidee Ladnier ❄️ Book Blast & Gift Card Giveaway ❄️ (M//M SciFi Time Travel Romance)



How can something so cuddly and adorable be so destructive? The teddy bear robot decimating his lab is only the first disaster of the day for roboticist Forbes Pohle. If he can figure out how to end its rampage, he still has to interview applicants for the position of research assistant and convince the time-traveler on his doorstop that they should be making their future right now.

Oliver Lennox didn’t travel back in time to have a quickie in the blast chamber—but it certainly is fun. This younger Forbes is a sweeter, more innocent version of his lover. And it will be hard to leave him behind in the past.

If you like sexy nerds, humor, plenty of action, and a love story not even time can disrupt, this romantic adventure has the perfect credentials for the job.



When they came up for air, Forbes claimed his hand and squeezed his fingers, his forehead resting against Oliver’s. “So, if you want the job, the research assistant job—” Forbes took a deep breath. “—it’s yours.”

Oliver stilled, pinned by that earnest gaze. He reached up to cup Forbes’s cheek in his hand. Forbes turned to plant the kiss in his palm as Oliver knew he would.

“Doc, I didn’t come here to interview for a job.” Oliver laid a finger on Forbes’s lips as he began to speak, “At least, not yet.”

“What do you mean?” Forbes let his hand slide out of Oliver’s grasp.

“I know this sounds crazy… but I’m from the future, and in my time, I already work for you.” Oliver grinned, but it didn’t last. Forbes had begun backing away from him. Crap, the Doc probably thought he was a madman. He could practically see the gears whirling behind Forbes’s eyes. Oliver had to trust that his curiosity would come overcome his fear.

“Time travel’s been proven impossible.”

Bingo. Oliver recognized that stubborn look. He’d seen it each and every time he made sandwiches with bean sprouts and spinach. Forbes ate those sandwiches too.

  6. How important are the names in your book?

    1. Good question, Mai. I thought a lot about names in this book. Take Forbes Pohle for example. His first name is based on the business magazine of the same name. I wanted it to conjure up a sense of his wealthy background to give legitimacy to a young genius able to afford his own private lab. And his last name is a more private conceit. I based it on science fiction writer Frederik Pohl.

  10. I wonder if Forbes really detests eating a sandwich with bean sprouts & he's just letting Oliver get away of feeding it to him OR he actually loves the sandwich but he like to tease Oliver like hell. Either way, I find it cutesy. *grins*

    Thanks for coming by to Romance Novel Giveaways, Miss Ladnier! <3

    1. LOL! I was rather fond of cutesy. Oh well. Actually, I think Forbes likes the sandwiches and thinks they're delicious but he doesn't want Oliver to know he does. :)
