Sex Becomes Her

Regina Cole. Kensington, $9.95 trade paper (304p) ISBN 978-1-61773-780-0

Cole (Draw Me In) sizzles in this sexy contemporary tale, which manages to be both sweet and red hot. After a vindictive ex-boyfriend broadcasts intimate details of Eliza Jackson’s sexual fantasies, she can’t even grocery shop without malicious comments from other residents of her tiny Ohio town. Fortunately her best friend is getting married in Hawaii, and Eliza can’t get on the plane fast enough. A collision with a handsome stranger, Chandler Morse, leaves her sexy underwear scattered across the airport floor. Of course they’re seated together on the plane; of course he’s a cousin of the groom. The intense chemistry between Chandler and Eliza heats up immediately, and even though both originally figure their relationship is destined to be a vacation fling, it quickly becomes apparent that there’s more to say. But will Chandler still want her after he hears the nasty gossip? Cole ably portrays a situation that could happen to anyone brave enough to share their sexual fantasies with a partner. While Chandler is almost too good to be true, readers will cheer for this couple and how they make their way to their happy ending. Agent: Nicole Resciniti, Seymor Agency. (July)
