At CERN, the most advanced research centre in the world, among scientific experiments which defy the imagination, young Laila discovers that science can be sexy and that love is the most powerful energy in the world.

In the meantime, she works as a waitress at the CERN, the most advanced research institute in the world, and the most boring (at least at first).

Quantic Love is going to be the first success of 2012. I know that without any formula. You will fall in love, trapped. And you will want to read it over and over and over … (Blogger Review)
