Don egy genetika professzor a Melbourne-i Egyetemen, aki nemrég egy hihetetlen felfedezést tett: a házas férfiak átlagosan boldogabbak, mint a szinglik, és tovább élnek! Ezért úgy döntött, tudósként, hogy egy problémát – azt, hogy nincs párja, és sosem sikerült találni egyet – egy projektté alakít: a Feleség Projektet. Egyszerű: csupán egy tizenhat oldalas kérdőív szükséges, hogy kizárja az összes rossz jelöltet, és végre megtalálja a tökéletes nőt, aki megfelel a szigorú kritériumoknak: nem szabad dohányoznia vagy innia, és sosem érkezhet késve vagy korán. A Feleség Projekten keresztül Don felfedezi, hogy a fülcimpák hossza nem megbízható mutatója a szexuális vonzalomnak. Rájön, hogy van oka annak, hogy sosem volt második randija egy nővel. Hogy egy sárga fényvisszaverő sportzakó, bár „zakónak” hívják, nem megfelelő egy elegáns étterembe. És rájön, hogy hiába a rendkívül tudományos megközelítés a problémához, nem így található meg a szerelem. Mert a szerelem talál meg téged.

Don Tillman is getting married. He just doesn’t know who to yet. But he has designed the Wife Project, using a sixteen-page questionnaire to help him find the perfect partner. She will most definitely not be a barmaid, a smoker, a drinker, or a late-arriver. Rosie Jarman is all these things. She is also fiery and intelligent and beautiful. And on a quest of her own to find her biological father—a search that Don, a professor of genetics, might just be able to help her with. The Wife Project teaches Don some unexpected things. Why earlobe length is an inadequate predictor of sexual attraction. Why quick-dry clothes aren’t appropriate attire in New York. Why he’s never been on a second date. And why, despite your best scientific efforts, you don’t find love: love finds you.
