The Two-Body Problem

by Ali Hazelwood

Summary

Olive Smith finally has her PhD and the happy ending she once dreamed of: a promising scientific career, wonderful friends, and Adam Carlsen by her side. But life after the happily-ever-after proves more complicated than expected. As Olive navigates the uncertainty of postdoctoral research, an increasingly competitive academic world, and the challenge of establishing herself as a scientist in her own right, she and Adam must learn how to balance their ambitions with their relationship. A witty, heartfelt sequel to The Love Hypothesis, this romance explores what happens when love is certain but the future is not.
