Description
"Dos físicos rivales chocan en una vorágine de disputas académicas y relaciones falsas Las múltiples vidas de la física teórica Elsie Hannaway han acabado atrapándola. De día es profesora adjunta. Se afana en corregir exámenes y enseñar termodinámica con la esperanza de, algún día, conseguir la titularidad. De noche, complementa su inexistente sueldo ofreciendo el servicio de ser una novia falsa, lo cual lleva a cabo con éxito gracias a sus habilidades para caerle bien a la gente y encarnar cualquier versión de sí misma que necesite el cliente. Lo cierto es que es un trabajo estupendo... hasta que el Elsie-verso que tanto le ha costado construir se viene abajo. Jack Smith, el hermano arrogante e irritantemente atractivo de su cliente favorito, resulta ser el físico experimentalista sin corazón que arruinó la carrera de su mentor y minó la reputación de los teóricos a nivel mundial. Y ese mismo Jack Smith, que es quien dirige el departamento de Física del MIT, se interpone ahora entre Elsie y el trabajo de sus sueños. Ella está dispuesta a poner en marcha una guerra de sabotaje académico, pero... ¿qué son esas miradas tan largas y penetrantes? ¿Cómo es que, cuando está con él, no tiene que ser una versión diferente de sí misma? ¿Caer en la órbita de un experimentalista conseguirá que, por fin, ponga en práctica todas sus teorías sobre el amor?"--Provided by publisher.
