They Want Her To Save The World. As If. One minute I'm out with my sorority sisters; the next there's a terrible accident (beyond my friend Stacey's outfit) and I'm waking up in some weird clinic transformed into a human cyborg--with a mission: to stop evil and stuff. Uh, hello? I've got a beauty salon to run. Granted, it is cool to run faster than a Ford Mustang when I need to, even if it's totally hard on my shoes. But then I have to bring in another human cyborg on the run? One who happens to be male, totally gorgeous, smart, funny--and, um, his "enhancements"?--as if!

Camille was on the road to destruction, and in the process could possibly destroy many lives, but she never set out to destroy Connery's life. She adored him dearly, and was appreciative of all he had done for her since that day in June when they stowed away making love in her bedroom on their very first encounter. Who would have known that the entangled lives of Camille Bella and Connery Jackson would share so much in the future and it all started with those two little words Hello Gorgeous.
