Quicksilver

THE VOLUPTUOUS VISIONARY
Diminutive, mercurial Terran psychiatrist Juelle Shanard was used to focusing on whatever she wanted, and she knew her heart's desire was to spur the planet Delphi into acceptance of Earth's technology. But then she met Eron, the planet's outspoken, statuesque councilman, and everything changed. Suddenly, whenever she glimpsed his long, lean body or listened to the eloquent fury of his impassioned voice, she could almost forget her mission to bring Delphi into modernity. She found herself swept away, fantasizing about his tender kiss, his sweet caress.

HER HARD-LINE OPPONENT
Eron's duty was to protect his people. He had accepted that knowledge as fully as he'd accepted his all-consuming passion for Juelle. But Eron also knew that his world's fate--and its possible destruction--was linked with the alluring Terran scientist. Flung together in the lush wilderness of Delphi, the headstrong pair were hurtled into a collision course with destiny--and into a war between duty and desire that promised eternal passion as its ultimate prize.
