She’s also beautiful and in demand for assignments in the company of the city’s industrial and scientific greats. Despite having seen more of the dark under-belly of society than the majority of those she protects, her focus on work has left little room for her to gain experience of life. That same lack of experience has given her imagination the freedom to wonder what she might be missing. When an audacious crime is committed at The Society of Scientific Enquiry’s annual dinner, Phoenix instinctively moves into action, but as the situation strays into the realm usually only inhabited by her wildest fantasies, she is forced to decide between her duty and her desire.No More Tears – Logan Zachary There are more things than steam and sweat in the locker room today.
