Have you ignored "climate change"? So has Associate Professor William Fleming, a honeybee specialist-until global warming is suggested to him as a cause of crashing bee populations. He decides to research that, but first he needs a deeper understanding of the climate change controversy. His alarming findings eventually convince him to write a popularization of the science. His quest for a publisher leads him to sweet romance, but his writing results in big trouble from a powerful skeptic. It's an experience both chilling and steamy-and so is climate change.
