Girl Gone Nova Excerpt: Doc’s companion turned toward the watcher. She turned with him, even though one part of her overactive brain thought it was a bad idea. Then she saw him and her brain did something it had never, ever done. It froze. The sudden silence inside her head was as disconcerting as the raw power the Gadi man emitted like a blast wave. He could have powered the Doolittle with a look. Even they paused inside her head. She should have been able to calculate his height and center of gravity to within an inch. Instead, she couldn’t do basic math. She wasn’t sure she knew her own name. Her only clear thought: what would it be like to kiss him? It should have freaked her out to feel thrust into a romance novel moment. She’d gone through a pile of them trying to find romance in her soul. She’d concluded she had neither romance nor soul. Now she wasn’t so sure. She was sure he was beautiful. Barnes and Noble Print Release! Watch this space for print release!
