Seducing Cecilia
By Michelle M. Pillow
Divinity Healers Series #2
As things heat up, the clock is ticking, and the time for seduction is running out.
In a world obsessed with medical advancement, Dr. Gerard Fauchet longs for something more. When he’s assigned as the liaison to a dignitary from a parallel universe, he never imagined she’d be so stunningly beautiful or so damned frustrating. One second she’s kissing him, the next she’s pretending nothing is between them.
The passion is scorching, everything he ever dreamed of having with a woman. He’ll make her admit she wants him—or die trying.
Dr. Cecilia Markos is keenly aware that she’s been shoved through a portal to an alternate reality for one reason—to bring home medical advancements for the betterment of her people. Unfortunately, she only has two months to learn a world’s complete medical knowledge base. It’s an impossible task made even more so by the distractingly handsome Gerard, who she can’t seem to keep her hands or her mind off of.
As the clash heats up between Gerard and Cecilia, the clock is ticking, and the time for seduction is running out.
