A lesson in chemistry...
Back in college, Mia Hayes had a secret crush on fellow student Daniel Keegan, who was an obnoxious stuffed shirt. But she fantasized about turning Mr. Uptight into Mr. Hot Sex. Now Mia owns a successful event-planning business, and at a bachelor party she’s organized, she runs into Mr. Uptight himself. And she’s determined to show overly serious college professor Daniel how to loosen up a little...
Imagine Mia’s surprise when she learns that Daniel has a deliciously wicked side—one that makes her knees weak with lust. It turns out Daniel is a whole lot more than she ever dreamed. But tempting the professor might have been the riskiest thing Mia has ever done. Because in their case, opposites don’t just attract...they combust.
“I fantasized about you once or twice...”
“What kind of fantasies?” Daniel’s voice was silky, coaxing.
The air between them crackled. How would he react if she grabbed the lapels of his jacket and pulled him in for a kiss?
“Flirting lesson number one,” she said lightly. “If a woman admits you’ve starred in her fantasies, she’s probably interested.”
His mouth curved in a sensual smile. “Probably?”
“Gaze can be a good indication of desire,” she murmured.
“And if she’s looking at my lips like she wants to taste them?”
She gave in to impulse and traced his bottom lip with her finger. He shuddered out a breath, warm on her skin.
Her own breathing was unsteady as she slid her hand down his chest. “Go with your instincts.”
I love “opposites attract” stories. The chemistry between two people with different viewpoints and personalities can be incredible—if they can stop driving each other crazy long enough to explore it.
When Mia Hayes and Daniel Keegan first met in college, he thought she was a confrontational attention-seeker...who also happened to be distractingly gorgeous. And she thought he was a disapproving know-it-all...who would be unbelievably sexy if he ever figured out how to cut loose.
Years later, when Daniel runs into Mia at his best friend’s bachelor party, the attraction between them is stronger than ever. The resulting affair is blazing hot, but is it only a short-term fling? Or can they embrace each other’s differences well enough to fit into each other’s lives?
I hope Mia and Daniel’s story heats up your winter, and I’d love to hear from you! Join me on Twitter, @TanyaMichaels, or at Facebook.com/authortanyamichaels to chat about books, TV, travel, family and sassy house pets.

“SO WHAT’S NEW with you?”
It was the third variation of that question Daniel Keegan had heard in the last fifteen minutes. He’d always dreaded parties where he had to make small talk with strangers, but tonight was proving that catching up with former acquaintances could be just as awkward.
Daniel sipped his beer, stalling. “Um...” Very articulate for a man with a PhD. He could share the story of how he’d proposed a few weeks ago. It had seemed romantic to pop the question at the stroke of midnight on New Year’s.
Would’ve been a lot more romantic if Felicity had said yes. She’d blurted out a panicked no and fled his parents’ lavish party.
Or Daniel could discuss how he was being considered for tenure at the university—never mind that he was up against three very qualified candidates all competing for the same vacated spot. Professional triumph would ease the sting of getting dumped, but even with tenure, he’d still be the underachiever in the Keegan family. His older brother was hoping to be the next governor of Georgia.
Fortunately, the opening trombone notes of a classic striptease score interrupted conversation. Men eagerly turned toward the makeshift stage. The chandeliers in the rented ballroom dimmed even further as a spotlight appeared.
