Blurb:
Astrophysicist Dr. Miranda Perry is happily ensconced at
Palomar Observatory. She rarely goes out because she spends so much time
searching for new planets. Her job is everything to her. When sexy, smart, and
suave particle physicist Dr. Russell Rogers visits Palomar to give a seminar on
the popular Higgs Boson, he blows her world apart, planets and all.
It’s love at first sight for Russ, and he convinces Miranda
to go out with him. In the short time they have together, sparks fly and sexual
tension magnifies by powers of ten.
After Russ returns to his job in Boston, the two arrange
hectic, emotional- and sex-filled moments, but the liaisons in the Midwest
don’t cut it and a choice must be made. With each of them committed to
prestigious jobs on opposite sides of the country, who will move to be with the
other? Or, will they give up on their relationship because each is married to
the job?
Short
50 Word Blurb:
Two prominent scientists living on opposite sides of the

Excerpt
“I know we just met, but I want to kiss you,” he murmured,
his nose in her hair. “There’s a dark corner over there. Come on.”
She shivered at his words, eager to feel his lips on hers.
It seemed as if she’d waited forever for that touch even though it had only
been a few hours since they met.
He led her across the floor to a dim space around the end of
the bar. Pressing her into the corner, he brought his mouth down to hers,
gently at first and then with more firmness. His arms closed around her waist
and pulled her to him. Her body responded to the pressure of his, contouring
itself around his shape. He nibbled on her neck for a few moments and then he
brought his lips back to hers, insistently persuading hers to open widely in
passion. Soon, they were both plunging their tongues into each other’s mouths,
angling their heads for better access, frantic to get as close to each other as
they could.
Heavy breathing filled the small space, and it emanated from
both sides. This is so not good. She
wanted to eat him alive, but they were in a public restaurant, and, if they
didn’t restrain themselves soon, people would start to notice. If they hadn’t
already. She stepped back, breaking his hold, and hating to lose his warmth,
but they she knew they had to stop.
Slowly, as she dragged her lips from his, then leaned her
forehead against his chest, she tried to calm her breathing and her heart. His
lips touched her hair and then he set his cheek on top of her head. Finally,
their breathing almost back to normal, they broke apart and drifted back to
their chairs. She glanced around. No one appeared to be looking at them. She
didn’t really care what other people thought, but still, she didn’t want to
create a spectacle.
“I suppose I should apologize for that,” he said quietly as
he pulled his chair in. “Except I’m not sorry about what happened at all.
