When a woman scientist offers hope of saving his life’s work, he vows to treat as he would any other laboratory partner. That would be so much easier if he didn’t find his brilliant new colleague so beguiling.

She maintains a professional distance from her fellow researcher until she catches a glimpse of his passionate nature under his cool exterior.
The fervent meeting of their minds leads to a passionate bonding of their hearts. But when their research unravels and forces them onto opposite sides of a professional rift, they risk a place in history. Will they also lose a love for the ages?

The Harrow's Finest Five Series books are stand-alone novels with no cliffhangers, and can be read in any order.
Four Corners of Heaven is book five in The Harrow’s Finest Five series by Nancy Yeager. I have been reading through this series and have enjoyed each book. Even though it can be read as a stand-alone, I recommend reading the series in order. I liked the hero Harrison Stafford. A scientist at heart and a future Baron by birth, Stafford struggles to find his place in the world. The heroine Adelia Dawson is a woman longing for the freedom to be recognized as a legitimate scientist in a world that only recognizes her future breeding capabilities. I enjoyed how Yeager infused actual history into her story. She mentioned Sophia Jex-Blake, one of the famous Edinburgh Seven women who attended Edinburgh’s School of Medicine under great controversy and risk. I liked the relationship between Stafford and Adelia, but I feel that it was a bit rushed. “When he’d kissed her before, she’d rationalized every revelation of joy with her understanding of biology demanding its due. But this time it was different. She no longer understood or thought or knew anything. She was a ball of primal need. The molten center of the earth. The churning core of a star.” Yeager has some very steamy sex scenes that I thought were well written. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.
