Cottage by the Sea: Book 1 of The Scipio Incident

By Murphy Noon

Maggie Mathis had made her decision. Leaving her high-profile life and billionaire boss behind, she returned to her family's Inn to care for her grandmother and the family business. What she hadn't counted on was to be left as sole caretaker of the unearthly artifacts her grandmother had collected over the years. When the meteor streaked overhead twenty years before it had inspired her grandmother to search out its properties, gathering the pieces of it left behind. Years of study of the artifacts and the properties of the minerals associated with them have been sequestered in her grandmother's notes. The unexpected appearance at the Inn by her former boss inadvertently reveals some of her grandmother's research. Her notes reignite Alex's suspicions about an area close to where the meteor exploded near his home in Oklahoma. Now Maggie has to choose again. Should she follow her heart and return to her corporate world, to help her former boss regain his status and empire? Or is Alex only truly interested in the artifacts, and the information he might acquire from them? More importantly, can he be trusted to keep the little information she has given him safe from his chief rival; his father?
