Not to get too political, but if I’m a very strong Democrat and my “diamond match” (any compatibility about 90%) is very Republican, odds are even if our DNA matches our values won’t. It does not take into account upbringing, values instilled early in life, or any other variables which shape us into adult humans. The DNA technology only takes into account a person’s genes. It’s a really interesting examination on the nurture vs. I also would have loved a better examination of the implications on society a technology like this would have, which was never really discussed in the book.īefore I get to the actual plot and romance, I want to talk briefly about the technology itself. I also hated the weird twist at the end, as it felt completely unnecessary and only there to add drama.
I loved their chats and interaction early on, but her stupid objectifying commentary really drew me out of enjoying the romance. If she said one more time how something about him (his hair, his eyes, his muscles) were attractive or how much she wanted to jump into his bed, I would have strangled her. Saying that, it did bother me at times how much Jess objectified River. But by the end their romance was very sweet. Jess and River are neither horrible people in the beginning, but through some misunderstandings Jess starts with a negative view of River. I really loved the premise of this book, how just by looking at DNA you can decide whether you’re suited to a person or not. Unfortunately, they can’t stand each other, but in the name of science and with Jess promised monetary compensation, they agree to fake date in order to test if a soulmate can really by found by DNA. Jess surprisingly is matched with an almost perfect match of 98% compatibility, with one of the original company founders, Dr. Deciding cautiously to jump back into the dating scene, she signs up for a revolutionary matchmaking company, with claims to be able to find matches for people simply by using their DNA. Synopsis: Jess Davis is a struggling single mother with a six-year-old daughter. And I enjoyed it for the most part, until the ending! Thus, when I saw the writing duo came out with a new book with a really unique premise, I decided to pick it up. While it wasn’t a perfect book and I never felt a lot of the romantic chemistry, it had a perfect Christmas feel. It’s a Groundhog’s Day type story with a Christmasy, romantic twist. Just after Christmas, I read Lauren’s other book, In a Holidaze. I don’t know why I’ve been in the mood to read romance (maybe it’s the summer beachy feel, not sure).
