Publisher's Synopsis

"Amy Webb found her true love after a search that's both charmingly romantic and relentlessly data-driven. Anyone who uses online dating sites must read her funny, fascinating book."-Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project

After yet another disastrous date, Amy Webb was preparing to cancel her JDate membership when epiphany struck: her standards weren't too high, she just wasn't approaching the process the right way. Using her gift for data strategy, she found which keywords were digital-man magnets, analyzed photos, and then adjusted her (female) profile to make the most of that intel. Then began the deluge-dozens of men who actually met her own stringent requirements wanted to meet her. Among them: her future husband, now the father of her child.
