Book Description
They said math was the universal language - but for young Zora, Earth’s ways remain indecipherable madness. Dispatched on an academic mission from planet Zagan, culture shock threatens to overwhelm despite her effusive guardian’s reassurances. Mathematics should make sense even light years away from home...if only humans themselves followed any sensible order at all! None more confusing than gruff Professor Henry Walker—an intellectual giant yet baffling enigma from his dismissive treatment of devoted girlfriend Gloria to his barely-contained disdain for Zora’s hopeful research questions. When fate strands them together away from prying conference crowds, mutual frustration erupts in verbal sparring...then unexpected camaraderie as common ground slowly emerges. But with Zora’s departure looming, they soon face an impossible choice: abandon rigid facts for an attraction as illogical as it is irresistible, knowing all the reasons why it surely can’t work...or walk away from a once-in-a-lifetime chance neither galaxy’s logic could have predicted. For even the stars themselves never proclaim what miracles may yet unfold...when minds—and hearts—remain open.
