Nineteen breakups have left Colin Singleton, a washed-up child genius, desperate to prove his "Theorem of Underlying Katherine Predictability." On a road trip with his overweight best friend, Colin races to crack the code of romance before a bloodthirsty hog and his ten thousand dollars can get the better of him. As friendships are tested and anagrams fly, Colin discovers that love, not math, may be the key to reinventing himself.
