Is it hot enough out there for you? If you live in the U.S., you probably know that the next two weeks are historically the hottest two weeks of the year, and this year is shaping up to meet that standard.
Right now the two halves of Adriana are keeping cool in a shady, secluded campsite at the Big Sioux Recreation Area just outside Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Mornings are pleasant for taking walks and riding the many bike trails – afternoons, we tend to spend inside the motorhome, writing, editing, marketing. We’ll be doing research for upcoming books, exploring the South Dakota plains and the Black Hills over the next three weeks.
We’re working on a WIP, Through the Lens, featuring a small town South Dakota art teacher who signs up for a high powered summer photography workshop in Chicago. We love watching things heat up in a clash of cultures like this. Her ancestors lived in a soddy, rather than a log cabin, but this 1869 cabin on the park grounds would be from about the same time period.
Did you know that digital photography is opening up more history of that era? Old photographs of cabins and soddies with an open doorway are being digitally manipulated to show detail about what was inside those early homes. We love doing research like this!
When we planned this leg of our trip, we didn’t know it was going to be quite so hot, which, of course, leads me to Hot Summer Reads. Our recent indie release, The Best Man, is full of heat – so pull up a seat, turn up the fans or the air conditioning, and treat yourself to a steamy read!
BLURB
Bad boy meets bad girl
– is that all there is?
Passionate, hard working and every inch a business woman,Chicago realtor Kitty Paige likes her sex raw and edgy, and sees no reason to limit herself to just one man. Never married and not quite forty, the striking blonde has successfully raised her daughter, Susan, and is already pushing her new-found freedom to the limits.
Wealthy commodities middle-man and race horse owner Jared Jacobs is father of the best man at Susan’s wedding. He is smitten by the vision in yellow who exudes sex as she escorts her daughter down the aisle. Also single, the handsome mustached California ranch owner with mischievous eyes views his sex life as a series of splendid love affairs, and sets out to make Kitty next on the list.
Together and apart, their chemistry is explosive, and their sparkling repartee and steamy sex catch both partners by surprise. Jared is first to recognize he’s fallen in love. When Kitty panics, can Jared finesse his every move and reel her in?

EXCERPT
“Oh, God. Have mercy.”
“Not this time, babe.” Jared easily lifted her butt and slid one end of the scarf under it. Quickly, he had her loins encased in silk and handed the ends of the scarf to her care. “I won’t be needing these for awhile. You may find a use for them.”
Her fingers curled around the scarf and he settled between her legs. He laved the silk around the edges of her pussy and then looked up with a grin. “Isn’t it amazing how silk feels when it gets wet—your juices and my tongue.”
She tugged on the silk scarf, increasing the pressure against her loins, and nodded jerkily. “Make me come, Jared.”
“Like this?” He tongued the silk covering her pussy and pushed a little inside her folds.
“Oh, yeah. That’ll do it. A little more.”
He lifted his head and shook it when he saw her distressed glower. “Not yet,” he whispered, retrieving the scarf. “Not nearly yet. You won’t come until I’m ready for you to come.”
He laughed as her gaze burned into him. He grabbed her wrist and tied one end of the scarf loosely around it. Her eyes rounded with awareness. Her lower lip trembled slightly when he tied the overlap of the knot around a bedpost. She didn’t move when he reached for her other wrist. “You know what I’m going to do?”
She nodded. “You’re going to ravish me.”
