Book excerpt: Emma Caulfield stars in this offbeat sci-fi romantic comedy as Oona, a single woman who is literally counting the minutes until she meets the love of her life. In Oona's world, it is possible to have a timer fitted on your wrist that accurately predicts the day you will meet your soul mate. Oona has already taken numerous men to get timers fitted to see if they match up with hers. Her growing desperation - and the influence of her promiscuous step-sister Steph (Michelle Borth), whose timer will not go off until she is over 40 - lead Oona to a embark on a fling with much younger, hopelessly unambitious shop assistant Mikey (John Patrick Amedori).
