The Love Hypothesis Series

The highly anticipated sequel to the instant New York Times and global bestselling phenomenon, The Love Hypothesis.

Olive Smith finally has her PhD, and she’s living her happy-ever-after. Well, not quite her ever-after, since postdoctoral fellowships are temporary by nature, but she doesn’t mind: she has her best friends, her research, and best of all, she has Adam. Intense, brilliant, endlessly undaunted by the chaos Olive has smuggled into their shared house, Adam is determined to spend his future by her side.

And yet, there are no fairy tales in academia. Being in love with another researcher means navigating the hard reality of clashing schedules, an increasingly grim and ultra-competitive job market, and Olive’s desire to be seen as a formidable scientist in her own right, and not just Dr. Carlsen’s girlfriend.

Being with Adam is the most real thing Olive has ever known. So as the pressure tightens and the stakes rise, she’ll have to set all confounding variables aside and learn to trust her heart.

Ali Hazelwood’s swoony instant New York Times bestselling novel—now in a beautiful movie tie-in edition featuring:

• An all-new foreword from Lili Reinhart
• A cover with exclusive movie art
• Adorable art printed inside the front and back covers
• Both bonus chapters from Adam’s perspective

A fake relationship between scientists meets the irresistible force of attraction.

As a third-year Ph.D. candidate, Olive Smith doesn’t believe in lasting romantic relationships—but her best friend does, and that’s what got her into this situation. Convincing Anh that Olive is dating and well on her way to a happily ever after was always going to take more than hand-wavy Jedi mind tricks: Scientists require proof. So, like any self-respecting biologist, Olive panics and kisses the first man she sees.

That man is none other than Adam Carlsen, a young hotshot professor—and well-known ass. Which is why Olive is positively floored when Stanford’s reigning lab tyrant agrees to keep her charade a secret and be her fake boyfriend. But when a big science conference goes haywire, putting Olive’s career on the Bunsen burner, Adam surprises her again with his unyielding support and even more unyielding…six-pack abs.

Suddenly their little experiment feels dangerously close to combustion. And Olive discovers that the only thing more complicated than a hypothesis on love is putting her own heart under the microscope.
