Single mom Jess Davis is a data and statistics wizard, but no amount of number crunching can convince her to step back into the dating world. But then Jess hears about GeneticAlly, a buzzy new DNA-based matchmaking company that’s predicted to change dating forever. Then her test shows an unheard-of 98 percent compatibility with another subject in the database: GeneticAlly’s founder, Dr. River Pe\u00f1a. As the pair are dragged from one event to the next as the “Diamond” pairing that could launch GeneticAlly’s valuation sky-high, Jess begins to realize that there might be more to the scientist–and the science behind a soulmate–than she thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m a newer fan of Christina Lauren, the writing duo that is compiled of Christina Hobbs and Lauren Billings. I purchased my first of their books I would read in late 2020, after a hellish year and needing an escape. And then I purchased another and another until next thing I knew I had read 6 of their books, so when The Soulmate Equation was announced I was excited. I have a problem with reading hardcover books though, so if I can avoid it I will. Even though it killed me I waited for the paperback to be released, and it was on my doorstep 2 days later. Once I started, I didn\u2019t want to put it down. There\u2019s something so heartwarming about the stories this friendship creates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thing with Christina Lauren is that you don\u2019t know the spice level of their books until you start reading them. Some books are downright dirty, while others have fade to black scenes. The sex in this book was mild and didn\u2019t take up too much of the story. It felt like a good middle ground to their other books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, I would say this was a great book. It didn\u2019t blow me away, and it wasn\u2019t life altering. But that\u2019s not what you\u2019re looking for when you pick up on of these books. You\u2019re looking for an escape. For a story you know will have a happily ever after. Christina Lauren succeeded in giving us that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
