Fashion writer Natalie Trent, fabric designer Isabel Parisi and accountant Arianne Sorenson were ready for a night they'd never forget. Last year they left the annual Monticello ball single...this time will be different. They're ready for some funthe sexier the better!
These women are willing to risk just about everything for one hot and steamy night, but it's the morning after that turns out to be more than they bargained for!
Impulsive by Jamie Denton
For Natalie, running into the man who disappeared on her one year ago is more than surprising. But she has revenge on her mind, and she's going to make him beg for more!
Champagne at Midnight by Carrie Alexander
Long-term relationships aren't in the cards for Isabel. But when one of her admirers decides tonight's the night they become more than friends, a little champagne and sweet talk is all the encouragement Isabel needs....
Tantalizing by Nancy Warren
When Arianne and her boss feel sparks on the dance floor, it's all they can do find the closest bedroom, damn the consequences!
Carrie Alexander was certain that once she became a Blaze author, a glamorous life of luxury and adventure would soon follow. Surely there would be fresh flowers delivered daily. Champagne on ice. Courtiers dancing attendance to her every whim. Jewels! Furs! Ball gowns! Hot- and cold- running footmen delivering love letters on silver trays. Urgent calls from handsome Romeos promising whirlwind getaways to luxury private resorts in the Caribbean. Intrigue, scandal, amour....
No such luck.
Reality is a desk piled so high with papers and books, Carrie can no longer see out the window. Correspondence does arrive daily--junk mail, bills, book galleys, contest entries, pizza parlor coupons. There are urgent phone calls- -from solicitors. And flowers? Only dead lilacs that need to be thrown out.
All the same, Carrie's not complaining. Real life has its rewards, like multiple book contracts and a treasured RITA nomination. Mainly, though, she simply enjoys writing books that bring fantasy to life, even if that means she's too busy getting her dreams down on paper to answer the doorbell.
Besides, she's sure that any worthwhile Romeos would head straight to the balcony.
