Hot & Bothered

The Heat Is On…

When Trey Marbury receives an erotic anonymous note, he knows only one woman could have written it–Libby Parrish. As teenagers, he and Libby had once gone skinny-dipping to escape the South Carolina heat–and ended up generating even more heat in each other's arms. Twelve years later, Trey is worried about how she'll react to his return. But her steamy invitation tells him she's more than ready to pick up where they left off…

Libby has spent the past twelve years trying to get over Trey. But once he shows up on her doorstep, she can't stop herself from falling into his arms and his bed. Still, Libby can't help wondering if Trey intends to love her–then leave her–again. Luckily a letter shows up in her mailbox, a red-hot message that makes all her reservations melt away….

It looks like the start of a beautiful relationship–until they realize the letters were written by somebody else….
