Shower of Stars — Nancy Herkness

In Shower of Stars, two unlikely lovers find that the brightest star in the night sky is only a glimmer compared to the blaze that burns in their hearts...

Journalist Charlotte "Charlie" Berglund has nabbed an interview with Jack Lanett--a handsome, enigmatic meteorite hunter who's just made a priceless scientific discovery. But once they've met, Charlie has more in mind than just a hot story. A working divorcee unable to have children of her own, she's been dealing with frustrating resistance from an adoption agency that fears she can't provide a stable home. With a little scheming and a little luck, Charlie strikes a deal, and soon she and Jack are married--in name only, of course.

What begins as strictly business soon turns very personal...and develops into a mutual desire as rare and precious as a shooting star. But just as the pieces of Charlie's life are finally falling into place, a secret about Jack's past will test their fierce, yet still fragile, love...
