Perfect Odds: A Lucky in Love, Inc.

by L.G. O'Connor

Fate has a name. Just don't ask us to celebrate Valentine's Day.

Hi, I’m Olivia Yu. Ever ask, “What are the odds?” My business partner, Bach, and I do every day at Lucky in Love, Inc. We’ve built a multi-million-dollar business in three years, secretly engineering second-chance love for unsuspecting lonely hearts. Not bad for two Wharton B-school dropouts (unless you ask my parents, but that’s another story.)

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Either way, we take the odds. The next couple in our airline flight attendant, Tanya Gates, and firefighter, Tate Manning. T & T. They sound cute, right? Too bad we have to give one of them the worst Valentine’s Days ever to get this scenario to work. This time, when Bach says, “All it takes is one match,” the sick f*ck means literally.
