"On Vulcan, gray clouds gathered and grew over a red stretch of desert just north of Shi’Kahr. A hush fell over the plants and animals. The spines of a ya-ya cactus shivered against the anticipating wind. The sand waited in fragile silence as the clouds trembled and darkened, growing heavier and heavier until, at last, there fell a single drop of rain."
Amanda Grayson of Earth came to Vulcan as an outworlder studying for a teaching certificate. She knew she wanted to contribute to her host institution, but she never expected that she would be willing to invest so much in one student - let alone that she would find herself falling in love with his father. What if her methods aren't compatible with the ways of Vulcan, after all?
