Duncan Sinclair is a Scotsman whose job could take him back to the UK at any moment. Still plagued by the ex-girlfriend who refuses to accept being an ex, he's definitely not interested in forming any more long-term relationships. But that doesn't mean he's immune to the alluring hips of the attractive redhead in the audience at his software presentation. Too bad she's a teacher and probably looking for something long-term. Still, a little flirtation won't hurt anything, will it?Kallie is a divorcée who's decided to enjoy her independence for a change. With a challenging job and some close friends, she doesn't need a man in her life. Except that the man with the charming accent seems to find HER attractive. And even though the proper Midwestern girl she was raised to be is not in the habit of chasing after men, she somehow finds herself thinking about him as the day progresses. She finally does get a moment to chat with him, dares asking about his plans for after the conference, gets shot down by his casual response, and returns home thinking that's the end of it.But Fate has other plans in store for this pair of disillusioned lovers.This is a story about survival and risk-taking and finding love in unexpected places. About two people seeking only a temporary summer fling who find themselves dreading the end of summer.And yeah, it's HOT!Who knew that an education conference could be anything but. . . well. . . educational? This story shows that it definitely pays to keep your eyes open to potential interesting possibilities in your otherwise humdrum life. And that taking a big risk can have an equally big payoff.
