Coming In 2008...
Hotel
Liaison (June 2008)
Two women searching through a
secret past discover that their brief hotel liaison is only the
beginning.
Laurel Hoffman, an associate
professor of women's studies in Berkeley, struggles to stay on track
for tenure while caught up in the last throes of a crumbling
relationship with a senior colleague. When she hears of a hotel
being renovated and a secret room full of papers about women who once
stayed there, she knows she has a potential career-saving article.
Stefanie Beresford, the hotel owner,
is not exactly receptive when Laurel approaches her about researching
the hotel's history, but that doesn't stop her from flirting with the
alluring academic. She doesn't need the distraction, but for the
first time in her life she wants to take a chance on more than a
fleeting encounter.
While Laurel can't deny her powerful
feelings for Stefanie, she fears she's risking her heart as well as her
future if she acts on her desires. But can a simple encounter
between two rational adults really be all that dangerous?
