Amazon Sharon Noble Category:  Romance Publisher: Five Star Expressions ISBN-10:  1594144869 Type: Fiction Pages: 206 Copyright: August 2006 Widow returns to college and falls in love with the man she believes responsible for her husband's death.  After the sudden death of her husband, a chemistry professor at the University of Colorado, Paula Wincott finds herself at loose ends.  She decides to continue her education and signs up for a chemistry class, but the class is taught by Boyd Mackenzie, the man Paula believes responsible for the heart attack that cost her husband his life. How could she know that passion would flare between them and change the course of her life? Excerpt "You've accused me of some responsibility in your husband's death. That's inaccurate and unfair, and I don't accept it. You owe me an explanation for blowing up at me in my classroom. Please, let's just sit down together and talk. I'm sure we can clear this up." He was being completely reasonable, and his argument made sense, even to Paula. But golden specks danced in the blue depths of his eyes, and Paula didn't want to sit across a table and look into his clean-cut good looks. Her loyalty to Sam wouldn't permit it. She had to hate him, as her husband had.

A Perfect 10- This is Ms. Noble's firsts published novel, but hopefully it will not be her last. The story works on many levels, not just a romantic one. The readers are taken along on Paula's journey as she develops and matures. AUTUMN DESIRE has depth and two characters with great chemistry. Ms. Noble's dialogue felt real, and her writing style is clean and crisp. One secondary character, Lottie, readers will particularly enjoy.
