The Rosie
Project by Graeme
Simsion

Meet Don Tillman, a brilliant yet
socially challenged professor of genetics, who’s decided it’s time he found a
wife. And so, in the orderly, evidence-based manner with which Don approaches
all things, he designs the Wife Project to find his perfect partner: a
sixteen-page, scientifically valid survey to filter out the drinkers, the
smokers, the late arrivers.

Rosie Jarman is all these things. She
also is strangely beguiling, fiery, and intelligent. And while Don quickly
disqualifies her as a candidate for the Wife Project, as a DNA expert Don is
particularly suited to help Rosie on her own quest: identifying her biological
father. When an unlikely relationship develops as they collaborate on the Father
Project, Don is forced to confront the spontaneous whirlwind that is Rosie and
the realization that, despite your best scientific efforts, you don’t find love,
it finds you.
