This hot novella is exactly what you need this weekend. Here’s the blurb and a sneak peek to whet your appetite:

Eager to end her dry spell, sexually deprived Serena Ryan craves fun in the sun with an anonymous hottie. Her first overseas assignment–write a guidebook on the balmy Canary Islands–supplies the heat and the opportunity. An afternoon of steamy sex with a virile stranger takes the edge off until she discovers he is none other than hotelier Antonio Delgado. Her hopes of an uncomplicated fling go up in smoke as their passion rises, along with the Spanish Heat.

Excerpt

Unable to stop himself, Antonio tucked a loose strand of hair behind Serena’s ear. She stiffened. Her shoulder muscles tensed, and her throat moved delicately as she swallowed. His cock jumped at the sight.

“Please,” she said softly.

“Please what, mi querida?” Antonio whispered, leaning toward her. He should step away, give her room to breathe, but he couldn’t tear himself away. He couldn’t be in the same room without wanting to touch her.

“Please don’t,” Serena whispered. “We shouldn’t do this. I’m a professional, and I’m here on assignment. This isn’t right.”

“This is right,” Antonio said, straightening. “Besides, you just said the management should take a more—how do you say it?—hands on approach to welcoming the guests.”

Serena smiled and glanced at his hands, just for a second, but it was enough. He grinned.

“Antonio, I’m not here to tell you how to run your resort.”

“Then why are you here?”

It was a dangerous question, one so loaded with possibility that a lesser woman might avoid it all together. But Serena was better than that.

She bit her lip, then shook her head and threw her hands up in the air. “Oh, what the hell. I came here for an encore, and I don’t really think it’s fair if I leave without one.”

Buddies since kindergarten, Ray Jenkins and Eric Richards have never crossed the line into a sexual relationship. But when Ray breaks the news to Eric that he’s leaving for war, their friendship suddenly slides into something deeper, and what’s intended to be a guys’ night in turns out to be a guys’ night in bed.

Two years later, their one night of hot sex is a distant memory and having heard nothing from Ray since his abrupt departure, Eric can’t believe it when his old friend shows up. Using his mouth and his hands, Ray makes it clear how much he still wants Eric, and unable to resist, Eric falls right back into Ray’s bed. But fear that Ray will leave again holds him back, and despite the passion growing between them, Eric can’t let go of the pain he suffered while Ray was gone. Ray has to convince him that this time ’round he’s not going anywhere or else their burgeoning relationship will be over before it has the chance to begin.
