A cute,
sweet story of rekindled romance among the stars,
Zero-G is a story of belated love.
Set in the near future, it pulls in a bit of science
fiction, but doesn’t specify an exact time, so the slightly
advanced technology is unobtrusive to the love story
blooming between the characters. I really liked how, despite
being a short, erotic story, it still manages to provide a
full and believable back story for the characters, allowing
the reader to get to know the characters and their emotional
torments before throwing them into a physical relationship.
The only thing I didn’t really believe is that Will would
have undergone such a dramatic physical transformation as
described in the book after high school. Putting on muscle,
getting a haircut, sure, but growing a couple of inches? Not
likely after high school. Otherwise, it’s a charming love
story with an explosive finale—a brief but satisfying
interlude in the lives of kindred spirits finding their
connection in the vastness of space.

Zero-G
by Michele Hart, which I would guess takes place about 60
years into the future, is a great little book and an
enjoyable, easy read for whiling away an hour or two. With
the small amount of history given on Maggie and Will, this
book turned out to have more depth than I expected. There’s
definitely a lot going on for the short length of the book.
Ms. Hart did a wonderful job of conveying what life onboard
a space station is like, including zero gravity situations.
I could easily envision the view of the pock-marked moon or
the vastness of space through one of the station’s small
windows.
I really liked
Ms. Hart’s strong, passionate couple. When Maggie seemed
bent on convincing herself that Will had turned into a
womanizer who thought nothing of cheating on his wife, he
wouldn’t give up on convincing her how wrong she was and
that he remained as principled as she remembered him. There
were a few times I thought that Maggie was going to let her
principles get in the way of a happy-ever-after, but then
Will’s friend George and the rest of his buds back in
Houston stick their fingers into the proverbial pot and
their brilliant, if inappropriate, plan to scare Maggie into
Will’s arms gives her the impetus she needs to finally set
aside her doubts and act on her love for Will.
Finally, I
liked the way the author did not leave me hanging at the end
of their story, wondering what life had in store for Will
and Maggie once they returned to Earth. I won’t give away
exactly how this story ends, but I must say that it was well
worth reading.
