The Love Hypothesis follows Olive Smith, a third-year biology Ph.D. candidate, who doesn’t really want anything to do with relationships. But her best friend constantly talks about romance, and really wants Olive to get out there.
Since Olive doesn’t really want to get out there, she convinces her friend, Anh, that she’s already happily in a relationship. To prove it, she kisses the first guy she sees – Adam Carlsen.
Adam is a professor, and kind of a grouch. So, it surprises Olive that he agrees to be her fake boyfriend.
Things are going great until something goes terribly wrong at a science conference. Adam is there to comfort her, and she realizes maybe this relationship shouldn’t be fake after all.
Now Olive has to figure out her feelings before this fake relationship goes south.

Love on the Brain – 2022
Love on the Brain was Ali Hazelwood’s follow up to The Love Hypothesis. It’s not a sequel or anything, but it does have the same science-y vibes that we loved from the last book. This one is 368 pages long.
Love on the Brain is all about Bee Königswasser, a purple-haired genius of a physicist obsessed with Marie Curie. In fact, her motto is ‘What would Marie Curie do?’
So when NASA offers her to be the lead on a project, she asks her question. Of course, Marie Curie would say yes! Unfortunately, Marie Curie never had to deal with Levi Ward, her archenemy from grad school, and her new co-lead.
Even though Levi is tall, dark, and handsome, and he saves her on her first day of the job, she just knows this is going to be a competition with her rival.
The project isn’t really going well for Bee. Her stuff is missing, no one is listening to her, and she doesn’t seem to be making any of the right decisions.
That’s when she notices that Adam is actually being nice to her. He’s backing up her ideas, helping her make decisions, and even stealing glances at her. She finds herself thinking about him more and more, and wants to put her heart on the line.
Now we are asking ourselves ‘What would Bee Königswasser do?’

But the longer she is in the elevator, the more she wears down. Peeling back layer after layer she realizes there is just something about him that makes her want to cross the bridge.
