<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Liz felt a flush
creep from her cheeks, through her breasts and down toward her thighs. She
wanted to jump into the screen of the phone like they did in science fiction
movies, so that she could be with the man in the photograph.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">She wondered if it
was the Cosmopolitan. Or if the warm flush between her thighs had something to
do with that incredibly chiseled chin. The flecks of gray in those thick shocks
of wavy black hair. Those eyes that were darker than the night.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">But the eyes of the
man on Jenny’s phone didn’t have that trace of arrogance or aloofness you
normally see on the faces of super attractive people. His eyes were dark and
kind at the same time. He was the kind of man who would be attentive to his
lover in bed. It was hard to believe that such a person existed in real life,
and he was living and breathing, just on the other end of a mobile phone.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“I mean…he’s
attractive huh?”</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“I thought you were
in sales and marketing Liz,” Jenny said. “A wordsmith and all. Attractive is
not the word. I mean look at him. He looks like he could be right from George
Clooney’s family. With George Clooney being the ugly brother.”</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">“What’s a man like
this doing on a mobile dating app?”</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">If she ever made love
to such a man, Liz would ask him to delete his Flame profile. There was no
reason a woman should have to share such a gorgeous boyfriend.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>Boyfriend?</i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Or to state it more
accurately:</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><i>Boyfriend?????!!!!!!</i></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">What was she doing
thinking about boyfriends? Had she forgotten what Jason had done to her? Had
she forgotten all those scars just because they had disappeared from her skin?</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 10pt; text-indent: 0.1in;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Had she forgotten the
promise that she had made to herself?</span></span></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>

And here's the synopsis: <br />
<br />
Can you ever find real love in a virtual world?
<br />
<br />
Liam Connor, the world’s most famous sex guru, is asked to write a
book on Flame, a dating app that’s a lot like Tinder. Liam’s surprised
at his publisher’s request. He knows a lot about sex. But he’s been a
failure at both love and marriage. Certain he’ll never find true love,
he signs up for Flame, only to see his world turned upside down…
<br />
<br />
Liz Andrews is a curvy, beautiful and intelligent technology
executive, who’s moving to Singapore to head up sales for all of Asia.
She’s not even thinking of dating -- until her friend convinces her to
have one last fling in New York…through Flame.
<br />
<br />
Sparks fly as soon as Liz and Liam meet and their passion knows no
boundaries. Liam realizes that Liz is the true love he has been waiting
for all his life. But Liz is hurting from a prior relationship. She
needs time to build trust. But with only three days before she leaves
New York, is there enough time for both of them?
<br />
<br />
As Liam and Liz find out, going from “Like” to “Love” is more than just hard…it’s nearly impossible.<br />
