Former beauty queen turned physics professor meets hot Airforce pilot Lance on the day he is left at the altar. They kiss, but he runs off. They meet again at a catapult competition and again sparks fly. Both aren't looking for a commitment, but Lance is seriously into Kaci's energy, smarts, and her potato gun (not so much into her elderly cat Miss Higgs). Plus, Kaci needs to get over her fear of flying so she can attend an important conference in Germany that will help her secure tenure at the university she teaches at, so Lance seems like the perfect helper. Too bad he hasn't told her he deploys in a matter of weeks...

I seriously had a lot of fun reading this. The cover is pretty lame, but the characters are smartly written and had great, sassy dialogue and awesome chemistry. It is also splendid to see a scientist heroine, and the perils of being a woman in academia touched upon. I'd definitely read upcoming books in this series.

Thank you to Netgalley for the ARC.
