Ionic and covalent bonds are a piece of cake for MJ. But human bonds are a little harder ... There are only two things MJ wants in her final year of high school: 1) Glowing grades and ... 2) to convince uber-smart, chiselled-jaw Jason theyd be a winning team outside the science lab as well as in. Tutoring deadbeat drummer, Luke, isnt part of the plan. After all, he has average intelligence, takes disorganised notes and looks like a partied-out zombie at their study sessions! Not even his taut biceps will win MJ over. But MJ learns that she could be tutored in a few life lessons too: That sometimes theres good reason to skip chemistry tutorials. That intelligence is so much more than a grade average. And that sometimes you cant beat the chemistry.
a brilliant, touching and hilarious romp.' - John Larkin
