Desert Rose Hook-Ups, Book 1
Heat Factor: Masturbation → shower sex → light BDSM
Character Chemistry: More focus on sex than deep emotional connection
Plot: “I need to stop fantasizing about my friend’s little sister!” / “Why won’t my brother’s friend go for my seduction already?!?”
Overall: If you want something short and steamy without any annoying alpha males or unnecessary conflict, this hits the spot
Heat Factor: It’s not a long story, but there’s plenty of time for some smokin’ sexytimes
Character Chemistry: They’ve got the hots for each other
Plot: All the drama of a baking competition
Overall: Fun holiday novella
Heat Factor: Secondary characters have sex off stage
Character Chemistry: Meh
Plot: Pride and Prejudice, but lesbian
Overall: There are some definite high points, but the Elisa / Darcy relationship leaves something to be desired.
Heat Factor: Subtle due to historical context and euphemistic in the sexy bits
Character Chemistry: I’m not sure their want for each other exceeds their need for each other
Plot: Emotionally constipated woman finds polar opposite for true love
Overall: Too short for the necessary emotional development of the story
