A young female scientist - tormented by her failed research and the looming marriage proposal from her devoted boyfriend - is confronted with a question she won't find the answer to in a textbook: What do I really want? Over the next two years, this winningly flawed, disarmingly insightful heroine learns the formulas and equations for a different kind of chemistry - one in which the reactions can't be quantified, measured, and analysed; one that can be studied only in the mysterious language of the heart.
