The past two years have been hard on seventeen-year old Hadley Sullivan. Her father, a poetry professor, was offered a once-in-a-lifetime chance - a fellowship at Oxford University. Ever the homebody, he didn't want to go, but Hadley's mom convinced him he should go. After all, it was only for four months.
Flash forward two years. Hadley's parents are divorced and her father is remarrying a woman Hadley's never met. Hadley is still angry with her father for leaving her and her mother.
This is where this novel begins. Hadley is preparing to make the trip to London for her father's wedding. She does not want to go. After a series of mishaps and an argument with her mom as she dropped Hadley off at the airport, Hadley missed her flight.
Who would have guessed that four minutes could change everything?
Luckily, she gets a seat on the next flight which departs three hours later. And Hadley's whole world changes.
The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight is a sweet romantic story about Hadley and Oliver. I really enjoyed the references to Charles Dickens' Our Mutual Friend. If you like romance novels, you'll enjoy this one!
Rating: 7 out of 10 stars
