GILLIAN
Four years of college. Finished.
I’ll be home in a few days.
Then what? I don’t really know.
I almost quit college a year back. Who needs all those qualifications with no real experience? Let alone the endless sniping from other students and dumb jocks wanting me as the butt of their jokes.
But the offer of a family friend to have me house-sit and look after their dog while they went away for work in my last year changed my mind.
Changed my whole life as it turns out.
A sprained ankle and some wounded pride is my small price of admission to meet the very mysterious but very handsome Professor Xander Sexton.
He’s head of something on campus, I’ve never heard of him and neither have most others I ask.
The only thing some people do seem to know about him is he’s huge, looks like a god fallen to earth, and has plenty to do with top secret government space research and UFOs or something.
I know one thing for sure, he can explore me anytime he likes, but I’m sure he has a whole galaxy of women he can choose from.
What chance would a nerdy, heavyset younger girl like me have with an older guy like that?
But a single touch and a cosmic feeling neither of us can deny could spell the end of my own theory of being alone forever.
Is he really from another planet or just out of this world?
There are more questions than answers for me so far, that’s for sure, but I can’t wait to find out if he’s into thick, curvy young girls before my dad hears about him.
XANDER
It was a simple enough assignment.
Blend into a new town, study the nearest and newest galaxies, planets, and black holes from my position.
Report to the biggest space agency in the country with my take on it before heading home.
Oh, and share the same information plus some added intel with an organization, not even the government knows about.
Not exactly rocket science, but not everyone has the same knack for deep space that I do.
It’s all rather dull until I see her.
Gillian Parker.
Until I feel the stirring in me that tells me the real reason I’m here. The real reason I’m alive on this planet.
A newly graduated student, she’s got just a few days before leaving for home herself.
Leaving town for good and leaving someone like me far behind.
But I have another idea. A better idea.
My lifelong interest in space, the stars, and other worlds is suddenly replaced with something more singular.
More exact.
Two things really. Me and her.
And a lot easier to touch close up. And when we do touch, worlds collide. I can’t deny it.
Everything else falls away, and the only thing that matters now is Gillian.
There are forces at play to keep us apart, some are bigger than me. Some are as small but equally determined, like her father.
But the biggest isn’t always the strongest, and now that I know what this truly is, I know that love will conquer all.
*His Shooting Star is an insta-everything standalone instalove romance with a HEA, no cheating, and no cliffhanger.
Genre: Romance
