Love and Other Dangerous Chemicals
by Anthony CapellaWhen a gorgeous girl and a brainy boy experiment, sparks will fly... An original and very funny romantic comedy from the bestselling author of The Food of LoveFor Dr Steven J. Fisher, love is no more than a chemical equation - and he's nearly solved it. A brilliant young biochemist who spends all his time in an Oxford research lab studying orgasms, Fisher is on the brink of inventing a Viagra-like pill for women. For the pharma company that funds his work, the discovery of 'Whoosh!' (originally named 'Desiree' before they realised that was a kind of potato) will be a history-changing event.But, just weeks before the product is due to launch, a last-minute case study ruins Fisher's perfect results. 'Miss G', an orgasmically-challenged PhD arts student (special subject: Victorian semicolons), isn't responding to the tests as expected. Strangely, the only stimulus to provoke a reaction is Dr Fisher's own voice.As the scientist and his subject bond over Bunsen burner-lit meals, argue over Pink Floyd and converse in Runish at sessions of Swamps and Sorcerers, Dr Fisher's feelings crop up in the most unscientific ways...Fisher usually has answers to everything, from the chemical composition of tears to the evolutionary reasons for kissing. But now he's facing the most bewildering puzzle of his career: what's love got to do with it? Could the outdated research of the Romantic poets enlighten him at all? With all this new data, he needs a new hypothesis. But what if there are some things science can't explain?
Love And Other Human Errors
by Bethany CliftAn unforgettable story about love in all its chaotic glory from the author of Last One At The PartyA book synopsis is fundamentally ridiculous. How can I possibly convey, in only 100 words, the events of the past year and their impact on my perfectly ordered existence?It is insufficient space to accurately detail how I was blackmailed into demonstrating my flawless algorithm to find a soulmate, despite having no desire for one. In my former life I avoided trivial human connections. I was alone, accomplished and brilliant.Unfortunately, that solitary and driven woman no longer exists.My name is Indiana Dylan and this is the extraordinary account of how I fell in love.There: 100 words exactly.

Once upon a time, Elliot was Macy's entire world - growing from her gangly teen friend into the man who coaxed her heart open again after the loss of her mother . . . only to break it on the very night he declared his love for her.Told in alternating timelines between Then and Now, teenage Elliot and Macy grow from friends to much more - spending weekends and lazy summers together reading books, sharing favourite words, and talking through their growing pains and triumphs. As adults, they have become strangers to one another until their chance reunion. Although their memories are obscured by the agony of what happened that night so many years ago, Elliot will come to understand the truth behind Macy's decade-long silence, and will have to overcome the past and himself to revive her faith in the possibility of an all-consuming love.The heart-breaking and heart-warming read from No. 1 international bestselling author Christina Lauren, author of Dating You, Hating You and Josh and Hazel's Guide to Not Dating.Join other readers in discovering the joy of Love and Other Words'Steamy moments, tender revelations' Kirkus 'Impossible to put down' RT Book Reviews, TOP PICK'Heartbreaking and hopeful' Amy Reichert, bestselling author of The Coincidence of Coconut Cake'(A) tender story of first love, mature love, and the people who change us in the best possible ways' Washington Independent Review of Books'A coming-of-age tale exquisitely blended with second-chance love' RT Book Reviews'The best romantic novel I have ever read to date . . . utterly beautiful' Amazon reviewer'I absolutely loved it!'
