The Virtual Man — Nikki Sinclaire

THE VIRTUAL MAN [The Virtual Reality 1] Jaded from an ugly divorce, and traveling to the edge of colonized space on a luxury starship, Tiana Weiss books a suite equipped with a holographic chamber. Anticipating a vacation in a virtual world limited only by her imagination, without men, Tiana finds, to her surprise, the chamber comes equipped with its own holographic attendant, resembling a Greek god straight from Mt. Olympus. Discovering the 'holograph,' for which she felt an unwanted, inexplicable, physical and emotional attraction, is actually Derek Hart, a brilliant computer programmer and escaped convict. Tiana's trip takes on the proportions and heat of a comet trying to wrench free from the gravitational pull of a collapsing star as she begins trading her anger and hurt for wanton desire. Two brilliant minds, two battered hearts, two passionate lovers battle their own hurts, struggle for physical survival and desperately seek to unravel a conspiracy that threatens the existence of 25th century earth. *** "The Virtual Man brings to life the reality that love can fully flourish and be ultimately satisfying in a committed relationship. Grounded in freedom and safety, love bears fruit in a deeply emotional, wildly passionate, and carnally fulfilling way. Meet my characters. Share their triumphs as they fight for their place in the universe, their lives, and their love." ~ Nikki Sinclaire ~
