And, boy, those two are adorable and perfect and exactly what you’d dream to have in your own life. Her dad wasn’t a part of her life growing up and her mom has been a partier for nearly all of Jess’s life, so her grandparents are her anchor. I love the entire cast of supporting characters in Jess’s family (and found family). I don’t normally love single parent characters in romance because I don’t love kids in romance, but Jess is a really great mom and I enjoyed reading about her relationship with her daughter, Juno (who is very sweet and spunky and I’m definitely a fan of hers).Ģ.

Numbers make sense to her, so they can totally find her her dream man. She and her best friend, Fizzy, learn about this DNA test that matches you up with the one you’re meant to be with and she’s definitely intrigued. Jess, our heroine, is a single mom, has the most amazing support system in her family, and loves statistics and numbers. And it was so much fun! As always, my main points are bolded.ġ. But then when I learned that it centers around a DNA test that tells you who your soulmate is, I was sold! What a fun idea for a romance book. I absolutely love author duo Christina Lauren, so I was eagerly anticipating The Soulmate Equation‘s release before I even knew what it was about. As the pair are dragged from one event to the next as the 'Diamond' pairing that could make GeneticAlly a mint in stock prices, Jess begins to realize that there might be more to the scientist-and the science behind a soulmate-than she thought. Jess-who is barely making ends meet-is in no position to turn it down, despite her skepticism about the project and her dislike for River. But GeneticAlly has a proposition: Get to know him and we'll pay you. The stuck-up, stubborn man is without a doubt not her soulmate. This is one number she can't wrap her head around, because she already knows Dr.

At least she thought she did, until her test shows an unheard-of 98% compatibility with another subject in the database: GeneticAlly's founder, Dr. Finding a soulmate through DNA? The reliability of numbers: This Jess understands. Jess holds her loved ones close, but working constantly to stay afloat is hard.and lonely.īut then Jess hears about GeneticAlly, a buzzy new DNA-based matchmaking company that's predicted to change dating forever. After all, her father's never been around, her hard-partying mother disappeared when she was six, and her ex decided he wasn't 'father material' before Juno was even born.

Raised by her grandparents-who now help raise her seven-year-old daughter, Juno-Jess has been left behind too often to feel comfortable letting anyone in. Single mom Jess Davis is a data and statistics wizard, but no amount of number crunching can convince her to step back into the dating world. Published by Gallery Books on May 18, 2021
