Love Hypothesis

Olive Smith has never been one to chase romance, and a fake dating arrangement with a brilliant scientist is the last thing she expects to become part of her PhD life. Olive is a biology student who has spent years believing that love can be reduced to a hypothesis worth testing, but her carefully ordered plans begin to wobble once she meets someone who challenges her assumptions.

Ali Hazelwood's The Love Hypothesis blends witty banter with the quiet tension of two people learning to trust each other. Readers who enjoy academic settings, slow-burn chemistry and humour that never takes itself too seriously will find plenty to savour here.

This is a romance for anyone who has ever wondered whether the heart can be as logical as the lab. It suits fans of contemporary love stories who like their heroines clever, self-aware and quick to laugh at themselves.
