The Science of Romance

By Dianna Cardin

Can you really engineer the perfect date? For Stella, the answer is a resounding "yes."

Stella is a high school senior with a meticulously crafted five-year plan: get into MIT, major in robotics, and build the future. When it comes to the messy, unpredictable world of dating, she applies the same rigorous logic. Romance, after all, is just a series of variables and algorithms. Or so she thinks.

When her best friend, Mateo, launches the "Project Cupid" experiment-a school-wide data-driven matchmaking service-Stella is his most skeptical participant. She's convinced that her algorithm, based on personality quizzes and shared interests, will find her the perfect partner. The results, however, are anything but predictable.

Thrown into a series of awkward (and sometimes disastrous) "scientifically-matched" dates, Stella is forced to confront the chaotic, irrational, and undeniably human side of love. As her carefully constructed world begins to unravel, she finds herself drawn to the one person who breaks all her rules. But can she risk everything she's planned for a connection that defies all logic?

The Science of Romance is a witty and heartfelt story about a girl who learns that the most beautiful equations are the ones you can't solve.
