A brilliant but socially inept robotics engineer builds her own wedding date-and learns more about love than she ever expected-in this hilarious and heartwarming debut novel. Meet Kelly. Twenty-nine, go-getter, a brilliant robotics engineer, and perpetually single. When her younger sister's wedding looms and her attempts to find a date become increasingly cringeworthy, Kelly does the only logical thing: she builds her own boyfriend. Ethan is perfect-gorgeous, attentive, smart, all topped off by a mechanical heart endlessly devoted to her, not to mention he's good with her mother. When she's with him, Kelly discovers a more confident, spontaneous version of herself-the person she'd always dreamed she could be. But as the struggle to keep Ethan's identity secret threatens to detonate her career, Kelly knows she has to kiss her perfect man good-bye. There's just one problem: she's falling for him.
A brilliant but socially inept robotics engineer builds her own wedding date and learns more about love than she ever expected. Kelly, a twenty-nine-year-old robotics engineer, finds herself perpetually single and facing her younger sister's looming wedding. After a series of cringeworthy attempts to find a date, she resorts to the logical solution: building her own perfect boyfriend, Ethan. Ethan is designed to be attentive, smart, and devoted, but as Kelly spends time with him, she discovers a more confident version of herself, while the secret of Ethan's existence threatens her career and her heart.
The premise of a robotics engineer building her own perfect boyfriend for a wedding sets up a story rich with potential for both humor and heartfelt moments. The narrative appears to explore the complexities of human connection and the definition of love, even when one of the participants is artificial. The conflict between Kelly's logical engineering mind and her developing emotional attachment to Ethan promises a compelling character arc. The story likely navigates the challenges of maintaining a fabricated relationship while confronting real-world consequences and personal growth.
