about this book: My husband is one of my beta readers and he said to me, after reading Cherishing Destiny, that he couldn't wait to hear about the rest of the science involved.

I said, "what do you mean?"

He said, "You know, how the Coronal mass ejections and geomagnetic storms cause genetic mutations and such."

"Well, um... You know that I did a lot of research on sunspots, solar flares, Coronal mass ejections, geomagnetic storms and auroras. Well, I did learn that the storms resulting from the ejections can cause radio interference and power grid disruption and that they can cause or enhance the auroras. This is all true science."

"Yeah," he said, "That was good stuff."

"Okay, honey, but the rest of the science is fiction. I don't think that the disasters and the genetic mutations would ever really happen, nor would I know how they would happen, if they did. I'm a fiction author. I made it up."

"Of course, I know you made it up, but aren't you going to put forward a theory of the genetic alterations and the other science?" he asked. (I'm leaving out a little detail here so as not to reveal any spoilers.)

"Genetic theories, babe? Wow, you sure want a lot from your paranormal erotic romance novels."

"Yeah, so?"

This is what I get for having a goose-hunting, ex-navy, football super-fan for a beta reader. He skims through all the steamy, sexy parts and goes straight for the science. Oh well, what can I say, except 'thanks for the input, honey.'
