Elsie + Jack

Elsie is a doctor. Not a medical one. If she were, she might already have a great job. Nope, she works in physics and the pay sucks if you're not a real researching prof at a super cool university.
Which is why she's jobbing a second job next to teaching at three colleges while waiting for her dream job.
Her second job you ask? Hiring herself out as a fake girlfriend. Nothing illegal. Just play the girlfriend in front of his friends and family.
One of those family persons is Jack. He's the super hot and grumpy brother of Greg - the guy she's been fake dating for a few months now - while pretending to be a librarian.
And suddenly hot brother Jack is standing in front of her at her first job interview for MIT as not Jack but Jonathan! The most hated physicist in her field - which is not his field - his people adore him. And he's kinda the guy responsible if she gets hired or not.

LET THE FUN TIMES BEGIN ...

ADORABLE!

Another perfect Ali Hazelwood STEM rom-com!
I so need to see these books on Netflix!

Jack and Elsie are so adorable together.
Both physicists but on opposite ends of the physic whatever. LOL. And the rest is also not a perfect fit - nothing really says: they belong together. But they so do!
I just loved the way he tries to draw the real Elsie out of her people-pleasing old self.
He's so sweet and calm and patient. And she's so not that.
I loved the roommate's pet! LOL!
I loved the brother and the grandma.
I did not love the mentor and Elsie's family!

This was a really sweet and funny and slighty heartbreaking love story with some very serious and real health and science-world problems thrown in.
I loved every word of it! I didn't understand all of them - but pfft - who cares.

Perfect STEM romance - can't wait to get more from Ali!
GIMME!

LOVE, THEORETICALLY was such a sweet + funny + sparky + slightly sad physicists love story. I just adored it! Run to your nearest book seller for your own Jack - he'll be sold out in no time!
