A young researcher at MIT, Jane Weiss is obsessed with finding the genetic marker for Valentine's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder that killed her mother. With a fifty percent chance of developing the disease herself, Jane throws herself into her research and steers clear of romantic entanglement, for fear of becoming a burden. Then, the summer before her father's second wedding, Jane falls hard for her future stepbrother, Willie, who has his own tragic past with Valentine's. If Jane succeeds in making history, will she be brave enough to face the truth this newfound knowledge could hold for their lives?
