INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER“Writing duo and reigning romance queens Christina Lauren are back with The Soulmate Equation, their most ambitious book to date.” —PopSugar“A sexy, science-filled, and surprising romance full of warmth and wit.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)Chosen as a best pick by Bustle, Marie Claire, Entertainment Weekly, E! Online, PopSugar, BuzzFeed, Goodreads, Country Living, The Pioneer Woman, Woman’s World, Bookish, Bookreporter, Frolic, and more!The New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners returns with a witty and effervescent novel about what happens when two people with everything on the line are thrown together by science—or is it fate? Perfect for fans of The Rosie Project and One Plus One.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. After all, her father was never around, her hard-partying mother disappeared when she was six, and her ex decided he wasn’t “father material” before her daughter was even born. Jess holds her loved ones close but working constantly to stay afloat is hard...and lonely.But then Jess hears about GeneticAlly, a buzzy new DNA-based matchmaking company that’s predicted to change dating forever. Finding a soulmate through DNA? The reliability of numbers: This Jess understands.At least she thought she did, until her test shows an unheard-of 98 percent compatibility with another subject in the database: GeneticAlly’s founder, Dr. River Peña. This is one number she can’t wrap her head around, because she already knows Dr. Peña. The stuck-up, stubborn man is without a doubt not her soulmate. But GeneticAlly has a proposition: Get ‘to know him and we’ll pay you. 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. As the pair are dragged from one event to the next as the “Diamond” pairing that could launch GeneticAlly’s valuation sky-high, Jess begins to realize that there might be more to the scientist—and the science behind a soulmate—than she thought.“Laugh-out-loud, sweet, charming, and humorous” (Library Journal, starred review), The Soulmate Equation proves that the delicate balance between fate and choice can never be calculated.

Dieses Buch hat mich wirklich gut unterhalten. Es ist sicher keine Geschichte, bei der man mitdenken muss oder die überraschend ist. Aber mit dieser Intention bin ich auch gar nicht an das Buch ran gegangen. Ich hatte sehr viel Spaß mit Jess und River. Und das, obwohl ich den Ausgang der Handlung schon wusste, da ich ausversehen zuerst "The true love experiment" gelesen habe, das eigentlich der zweite Teil der DNA Duo Reihe ist. Das habe ich aber erst gemerkt, als ich nun dieses Buch gelesen habe. Dennoch war die Geschichte unterhaltsam und hat genau das gehalten, was es versprochen hat: eine lustige Liebesgeschichte mit viel Witz, ein bisschen Romantik und einer interessanten Ausgangslage.

<b>Quiero estar aquí para traerte café. Quiero invitarte a cenar y pedir la misma comida y escucharte recitar las probabilidades de que nos hubiéramos encontrado. Quiero odiar, asistir a eventos sociales elegantes juntos. Jess se rio, un sonido de sorpresa y su tono se suavizó. —Quiero que me llames para pedir ayuda, sin una disculpa ya en la punta de la lengua. Quiero sentir que puedo besarte de nuevo junto a tu coche al final de la noche. —Tragó—. Te quiero en mi cama.</b> Amo esos libros que me hacen creer en el amor, y me sacan sonrisas, además de que son super fáciles de leer y divertidos. No entendí mucho las estadísticas porque el prota es genetista y ella es analista o algo así, u ellos entienden su números y yo por más que lo leí no entendí entonces nunca comprendí porque ambos estaban molestos, pero bueno. <b>—¿Recuerdas cuando estabas escribiendo My Alter Ego y me pediste que me pusiera la pierna detrás de la cabeza para… —Jess hizo comillas en el aire— ...ver si una persona normal podía hacerlo? Fizzy frunció el ceño, pensando. —Vagamente. —Me tiré del tendón de la corva y apenas pude caminar durante una semana. Para ti y tu libro. Pero le dijiste a Daniel que me había desgarrado un músculo vaginal en un accidente sexual. Me debes. —Voy a matarte en el próximo libro de Crimson Lace.</b> Ciertamente Fizzy y Juno son lo mejor de libro. Las amo.

I kinda liked the book. I didn’t really get why they were enemies in the beginning or the break up situation. Also didn’t like the third person writing
