Review: The Soulmate Equation by Christina Lauren

Title: The Soulmate Equation

Author: Christina Lauren

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.

Loved this and inhaled it in a few hours!

Jess is a single Mum on the dating wheel but decides to call it quits, waiting for her daughter to grow up. Her best friend gets them into a trial of sorts on a dating app that uses biology to predict the perfect match which Jess scores very highly on and her match is someone involved in the project!

Her match is Dr River Pena who is quiet, broody and apparently his default energy level is cardboard cutout! I loved him!!!!

This book had such hilarious banter that it made me cackle out loud! The person mostly responsible for this was the best friend, Felicity, aka Fizzy! Loved her!!!!

So all in all this was a fab read with added bonus points for the daughter, Juno, who was so cute with her zest for knowledge!
