Prom Theory

Summary

What is love … ? Iris Oxtabee has managed to navigate the tricky world of unspoken social interactions by reading everything from neuroscience journals to Wikipedia articles, and she’s sure there’s nothing science can’t explain. Love, for example, is just chemistry. Her best friend, Seth, however, thinks she’s completely off base. He believes love is one of life’s beautiful and chaotic mysteries, without need for explanation. Disagreeing with Seth is unexpected, but Iris isn’t one to back down from a challenge. She’s determined to prove love is really nothing more than hormones and external stimuli. And the perfect way to test her theory? Get the newly-single track star Theo Grant—who doesn’t even know Iris exists—to ask her to prom. With the dance just two weeks away, Iris has no time to waste. Will she prove herself correct, or will her friendship with Seth—and the possibility for something more—become the failed experiment?
