Love, Theoretically

"The reigning queen of STEM romance."—The Washington Post

An Indie Next and Library Reads Pick!

Rival physicists collide in a vortex of academic feuds and fake dating shenanigans in this delightfully STEMinist romcom from the New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis and Love on the Brain.

The many lives of theoretical physicist Elsie Hannaway have finally caught up with her. By day, she’s an adjunct professor, toiling away at grading labs and teaching thermodynamics in the hopes of landing tenure. By other day, Elsie makes up for her non-existent paycheck by offering her services as a fake girlfriend, tapping into her expertly honed people-pleasing skills to embody whichever version of herself the client needs.

Honestly, it’s a pretty sweet gig—until her carefully constructed Elsie-verse comes crashing down. Because Jack Smith, the annoyingly attractive and arrogant older brother of her favorite client, turns out to be the cold-hearted experimental physicist who ruined her mentor’s career and undermined the reputation of theorists everywhere. And he’s the same Jack Smith who rules over the physics department at MIT, standing right between Elsie and her dream job.

Elsie is prepared for an all-out war of scholarly sabotage but…those long, penetrating looks? Not having to be anything other than her true self when she’s with him? Will falling into an experimentalist’s orbit finally tempt her to put her most guarded theories on love into practice?

Praise for Ali Hazelwood

Love from a fellow scientist

What I love so much about Ali’s books are that I’m finally seeing more of how I think and the environment of academia that I am in. Jack is so perfectly manly, respectful, and confident. The under story of the trouble of academia, academics, and jobs (ugh) hits so true and hurts. I love that a non academic can understand this and as someone in academia, I’m even more mad. Thank you for writing about our fields and telling a wonderful story. If you ever want to set a story in the south, I’d be happy to discuss the extra layer of fun of southern topics and land from the very old institutions I work for!

A yes.

I enjoy Ali Hazelwood. This book is no exception. Great choice for beach read or beach listen.
