Two exes, one weeklong destination wedding, what could go wrong?

Lorelai Anneliese Zhao has always separated her life into two unequal halves: There was life before meeting and falling in love with Lucas Sebastian Murray, then there was her existence after she’d been forced to break up with him.

Before:

Lorelai was a Caltech freshman balancing schoolwork, her little sisters and a rocky relationship with money (and her parents). She had little time and no patience for parties, boys or anything else people said ought to happen in college.

Falling for Lucas was, at best, an inconvenience and at worst, a weakness her father could exploit.

Present:

Almost six years later, Lorelai has purposefully delayed graduation, knowing the moment she finishes her PhD, she’ll have to join her father’s company and start the rest of her so-called life.

She's worked hard to avoid news of Lucas over the years, but there's no escaping the destination wedding of their mutual best friend, Brody.

To anyone else, a weeklong, all-expenses paid trip to Hawaii would be a dream.

For Lorelai, it'll be torturous.

She doesn't want to answer Lucas's lingering questions or face the feelings she's worked hard to bury. More than that, given Lucas's meteoric rise and her ongoing health and family issues, Lorelai's more convinced than ever that she's the un-lucky charm her mother always labeled her as.

The Statistically Unlikely Reunion is a standalone second-chance, STEMinist romance, the second within the connected universe that is the Grad or Die series and has a guaranteed HEA.
