Please, do not panic.” Sky Fletcher had everything going for her: an esteemed position at The Daily News, the perfect New York apartment, and a brilliant boyfriend just weeks away from popping the question. In a single afternoon, the veneer of her relationship is ripped away as the nation dissolves into a frenzy. A supervolcano in the Western US is set to blow. Suddenly single, Sky makes the cross-country trek to report from the research base that monitors the volcanic mountain. Dr. Marcos Vega, a celebrated volcanologist, leads the unit that has gathered at the center. From his sprawling tattoos to his intimidating build, he’s nothing that Sky expected to find in the team’s lead scientist. Distant, cold, unreadable. He’s no one she’d want to get mixed up in...on paper. If only he weren’t so mysterious, so distracting, so quick to make the hairs on the nape of her neck stand on end. On the biggest assignment of her career thus far, Sky’s determination to keep things professional threatens to crumble at Marcos’s rough fingertips. Nothing spurs romance like the possible end of the world. less
