Goodness of Fit  

by Missy Marciassa 

(Smart is the New Sexy #1) 
Publication date: July 2014 
Genres: Contemporary, New Adult, Romance


Synopsis:

Zoe Tawn is about to finish her bachelor’s degree and start a PhD program in quantitative psychology. Yet her friends don’t think she’s quite ready to graduate: she still hasn’t played her v-card. Zoe’s friends don’t know her v-card was played years ago; she doesn’t talk about that crap. She does agree that dating would make her a more well-rounded individual, however, so she tries, and realizes the dating game isn’t for her: she’s a geek, not a flirt. Zoe decides to utilize her strengths with the mantra “Smart is the new sexy” and develops a predictive model for companionship to replace those outdated compatibility questionnaires. Her model goes viral in no time, so her friends secretly enter her profile into it. When a match comes back, it shocks them all: it’s Wesley Williams, the twentysomething CEO billionaire of Quantitative Solutions, where Zoe is doing an internship. Zoe insists the error in her model must be unacceptably high until she gets an email requesting she stop by Mr. Williams’ office at her earliest convenience…

Excerpts

First Excerpt (885 words)

“So, Zoe.” Laurence gave me another smile that was surely meant to encourage me to spill my guts. “Why don’t you tell me a little bit about yourself?”
Oh, right. We were supposed to get to know each other, but I didn’t have time for the niceties. “Did you get my records from my old therapist, Dr. Mayweather?”
Laurence blinked. Maybe I was moving a little too fast for him, but I’d had those records sent up for a reason: so we could get going. After a moment, he nodded. “Your therapist- Emily Mayweather?- sent us your files, provided a lot of information.”
“Good.” I nodded and drank some more water. “So you can see that we talked- extensively- about what happened.” For five frickin’ years. I paused to see if he was still with me.
He simply nodded.
My throat still felt a little dry, but I spoke anyway. “I wanted you to see that so you would know my history, obviously, and so it’s clear that I’ve dealt with all that stuff.”
Laurence’s eyebrows went up. “All that stuff?”
Were they trained to act like parrots? “Yes, all that stuff.” I leaned forward. He was probably looking for a lot of juicy trauma to cut his clinical psychology trainee teeth on, but it wasn’t going to happen with me. “I’m not interested in rehashing the past. It’s over. Done with. I’m interested in focusing on the present, moving on with my future.”
Laurence nodded again. “That’s the ultimate goal of therapy,” he started, “but sometimes we need to talk about the past-”
“Not me,” I interrupted. I was going to cut this line of inquiry off right at the beginning. “I’m not here to talk about past bullshit, like my family, my childhood, or what happened. I’ve talked- processed- it all, as you can see from my records.” I figured I’d throw some psychological terms in (like “processing” as opposed to “talking”) to show I wasn’t as naïve as a layperson, even if I was still an undergrad psych major. “I’m here to get some strategies.”
Laurence blinked again as if trying to make sense of that. “Strategies.”
“Yes.” I nodded my head a little too vigorously: I could feel the pull in my neck. “Strategies.”
He shifted in his chair as he regarded me. “Strategies for what?”
“Dating.” I answered without hesitation. There was no use being coy. “I’ve met a guy, and I really like him, and I just need some strategies to figure out how to- well-” I hadn’t thought this part through. How to phrase this? “How to- how to enjoy him- my time with him-” My voice died out, something it never did, but of course this had to be another first time for something. I swallowed some more water, grateful I didn’t choke on it.
“Enjoy your time with… your boyfriend?” Well, I had to give him some credit: he got what I was trying to say.
“Yes.” Again I nodded too hard, so my head felt like a damn bobble doll. “I’ve been busy in college, so I haven’t had much- well, any- time to date, and I started dating a guy, and I really like him, but- but I’m having… problems.” Now I sounded like an idiot.
He looked at me for a long moment before repeating, “Problems.”
This parroting was really getting on my nerves. I looked at him to see if he could come up with something better than that. This was supposed to be a conversation, after all. Did I have to spell it out for the guy? The clinical psych department here was one of the top-ranked programs in the country; their students were supposed to be the best and the brightest. Let’s see how bright Laurence was. Hopefully I hadn’t gotten a dud.
After a long pause, Laurence asked, “Are these problems related to… intimacy issues?”
Okay, so he wasn’t a complete idiot. I restrained myself to nod only once. “Yes. And I’m looking for some strategies to deal with these, well, intimacy issues.”
“But you don’t want to talk about what happened?” Was that a note of incredulity in his voice? It would be incredibly unprofessional if there was one, but I couldn’t be certain.
Well, ultimately, I was the client. This was supposed to be about what I wanted. “I’ve already talked about it. I know the guy’s a dirty rat-bastard, it wasn’t my fault, all that stuff. I’m just looking for some strategies. Can you do that?”
Laurence seemed to consider this for a moment before he gave me a nod of his own. “We can develop some strategies to help with specific issues.” He didn’t shrink from my gaze as he regarded me for a moment before he continued talking. “But I think you need to be prepared for the possibility that we won’t be able to develop successful strategies without talking about what happened.”
Jesus. What other options did I have, though? What I was doing on my own wasn’t working, and although I’d even considered a sex surrogate, I just wasn’t sure if that was a legitimate form of treatment. I wasn’t looking to get arrested for soliciting prostitution. I guess I needed to give Laurence a try.
Hopefully this wouldn’t suck too much.

Second Excerpt (377 words)

Lena gave my hand a squeeze. “High school’s ancient history,” she said. The determined look on her face told me she wasn’t going to back down. “You haven’t dated anyone in college.”
I nodded. I’d been busy, dammit. I had a full scholarship that was contingent on keeping at least a 3.7 GPA, and then I got the internship at Quantitative Solutions, which was not only good for my vita (the academic version of a resume, which had to be submitted with grad school applications), but it paid well, too. My mother had raised me by myself; she deserved a break, so I couldn’t afford to slip either at school or at work.
“So you’re re-virginized,” Lena declared.
Both Talen and I blinked at that.
“Doesn’t that involve a surgical procedure?” I asked.
“Nope.” Lena shook her head so vigorously, her ponytail swung about. “The hymen is a fairly elastic piece of skin, as is the vagina. Even if you’ve had sex before, if you don’t have it for a while, well, things can tighten up again.”
Talen’s brow was wrinkled. “What the hell are you guys looking up in the library?” Lena was an information science major: it was an outgrowth of library studies to focus on organizing all kinds of data, not just books, and to organize it electronically. She took courses in web and graphic design, statistics, organizational systems, even things like psychology to understand how people interacted with, stored, and retrieved data.
Lena gave her a teasing grin. “Much more interesting stuff than the economy.” Talen majored in economics with a minor in business. She rolled her eyes at Lena’s comment. “You know how I feel about this,” Lena went on, although she didn’t need to. I’d heard this many times over the last few years. “Just because we’re smart doesn’t mean we have to be non-sexual beings. We don’t have to limit ourselves because of some dumb stereotype about smart girls- women.”
“Smart is the new sexy.” Talen and I chimed in when Lena said this; we’d heard her declaration many times. Lena nodded; her beam showed her pleasure that we remembered her “teachings.”
“We know you’re smart.” Lena gave me a teasing nudge. “Next semester, we’re bringing the sexy side out.”

Third Excerpt (697 words)

“So what can I do for you, Mr. Williams?” It seemed like the right question to ask, an appropriate, business-like question. We needed to get on track.
“Please, call me Wes.”
So they really did call him Wes. I couldn’t stop myself from smiling. “Then please call me Zoe.”
He gave me another genuine smile that had my stomach fluttering again in a way that wasn’t at all businesslike.
“Zoe.” How did he manage to make my name sound sexy? I blinked, trying to clear my head as he continued talking. “I guess it’s best we’re on a first-name basis.” Did he actually look me up and down? If he did, he was quick. “Since we’re a perfect match.”
If my cheeks felt warm before, then they were now flaming. “Oh, that.” A quick laugh escaped. “I-”
What the hell could I say? Why hadn’t I just followed Lena’s and Talen’s advice and gone out on another date with Elliott? He may not have had Wes’ presence- okay, few guys did- but I was on even ground with Elliott. We were both students. With Wes, I felt like whatever water I was treading was in danger of sucking me under at any moment. If I’d gone out with Elliott again, I never would have created that damn model, and I wouldn’t be sitting here in this crazy situation right now.
“We- I didn’t really think-” I was as flustered as a high school girl. “I didn’t think you- I didn’t think it was you who actually, you know, participated.” Especially since he was dating a supermodel.
Wes chuckled himself. Were his cheeks growing rather pink? “We’re really excited about our new Lifestyle Division. Whenever we hear about something that could be beneficial, it gets our attention.” If pink had tinged his cheeks, it had faded. He gave me a shrug. “Everyone’s looking for love.”
He was looking for love? Was he bored with that vapid model? I mean, Molly Kress was gorgeous, no question about it, but listening to a thirty second sound bite of hers made it clear she wasn’t all that bright. But since when did guys care what was in a woman’s head? He could talk to his friends for intelligent conversation. Wasn’t that how most guys thought?
I forced myself to exhale as I smiled back and pressed my shoulders down. It was time for me to get myself together. “It’s only the first version of the model.” At least I knew about the model since I’d created it.  There was no way to make an ass of myself discussing it. “I still have some modifications to make.” That was clear, given some of the matches.
Wes leaned forward. The interest in his eyes seemed genuine. “That’s when the real fun begins.”
I couldn’t believe he said that. He actually got it. “Yes, it is.” I realized I was leaning forward myself. “People are providing feedback on how their matches are going, so I’ll have additional data for the modifications.”
“You built in a mechanism for feedback?” Wes sounded impressed.
I couldn’t hold back a grin. “Of course. It’s the most efficient way to improve the model.”
His eyes shone. “You have an exceptional skill at model development, Zoe.” If the table hadn’t been between us, we would have been almost touching with the way we were both leaning in. I could smell a hint of his aftershave and see just how clean-shaven he was. I wondered if the skin on his chin was as smooth as it looked, or maybe it was just a little rough?
Where the hell did that thought come from? I’d never wondered how another guy’s- or anyone’s- face felt before. I needed to say something. Now. “Well, I- I really like it.” A warm and fuzzy feeling seemed to be fogging my brain, even though I didn’t typically feel warm and fuzzy. His compliment felt as good as a perfect score on an exam. I felt like I needed to say something more, something better than that I really liked it. “I like the challenge.”
Were his eyes sparkling? “Intellectual stimulation is the best kind, isn’t it?”

Fourth Excerpt (635 words)

I started to gather up the papers; Wes obviously had another meeting. He looked genuinely regretful as he nodded at Mrs. Jensen, who turned and left to resume her post at her desk.
“Time got away from me,” he said. I felt a little thrill that he looked genuinely disappointed about having to end our meeting. “If I could cancel this, I would- this is much more enjoyable.”
Even now, after working with him for a few weeks, when he said certain words, like “enjoyable,” I felt my cheeks flush. If he ever lost his billions, he’d have a job in the voiceover industry, that was for sure. “Oh, it’s no problem- we’ve been working for a while.” I stuffed the rest of the papers into the folder and slid it into my backpack. I could feel him looking at me. “I’ve gotta get back to campus anyway.”
“This is great stuff,” he said as I stood and he stood with me, running a hand through his dark hair. It looked cute ruffled. “Do you have any plans tonight? I should be done by six.”
Meeting in the evening, after work, when everyone had gone home. I swallowed as the flutters that kept recurring in my stomach started up again. I was being silly. When would I get a grip around this guy? He was proposing a dinner meeting. We worked plenty over lunch: working over dinner wouldn’t be any different, right?
“Sure, I can work over dinner.” I grinned to hide the effort it took me to keep my voice casual. “Do you want me to meet me here?”
I didn’t know if it was just something weird about the lighting in his office or what, but for the first time, it was like the glow that seemed to warm up his deep brown eyes dimmed a bit. What was up with that?
Then he smiled at me, and I blinked: his rich brown eyes looked normal again.  “A working dinner: that’s  good. Meeting here is fine: I’ll figure out if we should order in or grab dinner nearby.”
I nodded and picked up my backpack. It felt heavier than usual. I felt as if I’d missed something, like an opportunity had been lost, but what? I’d agreed to meet to work over dinner. “If you want me to bring something, just, you know, send me a text or whatever.” He probably wouldn’t leave this office between now and six.
He nodded and gave me a little wave, which I returned before heading out the door. I still had the feeling something weird had just gone down. I needed to run this conversation by Lena and Talen. I got out my cell to text them to see if either was going to be in the apartment as I stepped in the elevator.
A text came through before I could finish typing my own text. It was from Wes.
Leave the laptop and printouts at home. Put on a nice dress. I’ll pick u up at ur place @ 7; I’m taking u out to dinner. Think of it as further validation of the model.
My stomach dipped, and I knew it wasn’t from the elevator’s descent. No laptop. No printouts. Just us, going out to dinner. I didn’t need Talen and Lena to tell me what this meant.
My cell beeped again as the doors to the elevator slid open, revealing the lobby. The beep told me I had another text, also from Wes.
Is that OK?
Forget the flutters: it was like a force lit up inside me. I felt my cheeks tighten as I grinned. I glanced around as I walked through the lobby, but no one was paying me any attention, thank God. I texted back:
OK. C u @ 7.

AUTHOR BIO

(No author picture)
Missy Marciassa loved getting lost in novels from the time she could read, so it’s no surprise she wanted to write. Her very first “novels” were re-writing the books she read to get the endings she wanted in second grade. Missy continued to read and write through grade school and high school.

After becoming rather disillusioned with fiction after writing literary criticism as an English major in college, however, Missy focused on her enjoyment of learning about people and studied psychology. Reading fiction fell to the wayside with all the reading and writing required for college and graduate school, but once Missy became a doctoral candidate, she rediscovered her love of fiction. Then she started getting the urge to write, an urge that wouldn’t go away (she refuses to diagnose it as a compulsion). Covert Assignment is the end result of that urge.
So who am I? It’s a reasonable question. IRL I did the practical thing, spent a very long time in school, and am supposed to be a responsible professional. Well, I am a responsible professional, but this nagging urge to write just Will Not Leave Me Alone.
So I’ve finally decided to stop fighting the urge and go with it. Going with the flow isn’t something I typically do very well (why go with the flow when you can try to control it?), but this time, I’m going to do it.
I learned about this new category called New Adult and knew it was time. Trying to make that transition into becoming a full-fledged adult is exciting, terrifying, crazy, exhilarating… what’s not to like? That is exactly the type of character that keeps speaking to me, and it’s time I gave them voices. I hope you enjoy these characters and their stories as much as I do.
If you want to hear about new releases coming up, then join my Mailing List! I won’t share or sell the list with anyone and will only send out an email when there’s a new release. I know we all get more than enough email these days.
