Four Corners of Heaven

Mr. Harrison Stafford, the future Baron Chelton, spent years in South America in search of a medical miracle drug. Now back in London, his once-promising research appears doomed. His benefactors are about to abandon their support and his family demands he leave science to devote himself to the duties of the barony. To save his work, he agrees to an unorthodox offer to work with a woman scientist. He vows to treat the lady as he would any other laboratory partner, which would be so much easier if he didn’t find his brilliant new colleague so beguiling.


For years, Miss Adelia Dawson has fought convention to study science in a man’s world. She dreams of being the first female medical student in England, but those doors will remain closed to her unless she can claim an undeniable success. Joining Mr. Stafford’s research endeavor is just the opportunity she needs. But when she catches a glimpse of his passionate nature under his cool exterior, she can’t help thinking of her new workfellow in a deeply personal way.


Harry and Adelia struggle to maintain their professional distance while their shared passion for their work draws them ever closer together. But when their research unravels, they could lose much more than their careers. They could lose their chance at love.
