Alice:
As a physics professor at UC Berkeley, my life is governed by logic, precise equations, and strict boundaries. After a devastating past relationship left my trust shattered, I built an unyielding fortress around my heart, choosing professional success over romantic chaos. I had my universe completely figured out—until Clayton Ferguson moved in next door. Tall, ruggedly handsome, and possessing a quiet, protective strength that threatens every rule I’ve ever made, he’s a walking variable I never saw coming. And when his sweet eleven-year-old daughter instantly warms to me, the neat lines of my solitary life begin to beautifully blur.
Clayton:
Moving from the quiet landscapes of Utah to the fast-paced corporate world of Bay Area construction was supposed to be a completely fresh start for my daughter and me. We needed an escape from the ghosts of our past, a chance to rebuild under the California sun. What I didn’t expect was the breathtaking, brilliant force of nature living exactly next door. Alice is a magnificent contrast of sharp intellect and mesmerizing, voluptuous grace. From the moment our eyes locked across the driveway, the attraction wasn’t just a spark—it was an absolute, magnetic collision.
When two high-energy worlds occupy the same local space, an irresistible pull is mathematically guaranteed. As old wounds surface and deep secrets are shared in the quiet twilight, an undeniable, fast-paced passion takes complete control. Can a cautious scientist let down her guard for a devoted father who is ready to rewrite every variable on the grid for her love?
Find out in this passionate, heartfelt, and intensely emotional instalove romance where two entirely different worlds converge to create the ultimate formula for happiness.
