    About this ebook

    Despite the success of her sultry Red Choo sex blog,
    it would take serious buzz to put Mercedes Brooks's
    first book of erotic fantasies on the bestseller list. And
    that meant agreeing to another showdown with her nemesis,
    the super-sexy TV pundit Sam Porter.



    This time, though, the on-air innuendos were just a dress
    rehearsal. What happened later between the sheets was
    actually the main event. If the tabloids got wind of their
    night together, Sam's career would self-destruct. But the
    real shocker was that even with a prime-time scandal
    hanging over their heads, one night was not enough!

    Kathleen O'Reilly

    Kate began reading romance in 1979 when she picked up a copy of Kathleen Woodiwiss's Ashes in the Wind. She read the book from cover to cover in one very long night and was immediately hooked on the genre. The next morning, she was standing at the door to her local Waldenbooks and when they opened, she hurried inside and asked for everything else written by Woodiwiss. At the same time, she found wonderful books by Rosemary Rogers, Laurie McBain, and Jennifer Blake. Nearly 10 years later, while working as an advertising copywriter, Kate decided to try writing a romance of her own. After a history of interesting jobs in teaching, retailing, advertising, and nonprofit work, she was determined to add romance author to that list. After numerous failed attempts over three years, Kate decided to forget writing historical romance and turned to category romance. Six months later, her first story, A Vagabond Heart, was finished. A year later, Harlequin bought the book after Kate won the national 1992 Harlequin Temptation contest. The book was published in 1993 as Indecent Exposure. Her dream of adding romance writer to her resume came true and in December of 1993 she turned off her alarm clock, shredded her pantyhose, and became a full-time writer. Since then, Kate has written numerous books for Temptation, Weddings by DeWilde, Harlequin anthologies, Love and Laughter, and Duets. Kate lives in southeastern Wisconsin in a cozy little house in a picturesque village. Two cats also live with her — Tansing, a grumpy Himalayan, and Tibriz, a tortie Persian mix that she rescued from an animal shelter. She enjoys gardening, golf, reading, and romantic movies.

      Kathleen O'Reilly is one of the few authors I read in category. This is the last book of a trilogy--something I wasn't aware of, though I believe the others are in my TBR pile. Oh, well. I didn't get the feeling I was missing anything.It seemed like a win-win situation. Mercedes Brooks's first book of erotica needed some publicity if it was to become a success, and Sam Porter's talk show needed a guest. Except that Sam prefers a little more seriousness to his topics, and Mercedes has been on his show before (ah--obviously something I did miss, in the earlier books), and it ended in disaster.But part of the reluctance on both sides was their uncomfortable attraction for each other, and after a sexually-charged show, they act on that attraction.Unfortunately, Mercedes's book came about because of her very popular sex blog, and even though she changes the names and identifying details, she blogs about their encounter the next day.Which causes Sam no little consternation. Particularly since he's decided to run for congress.This is a fun and sexy story with a serious side, as Mercedes and Sam's lifestyles conflict and they have to make some difficult decisions.Mercedes's slew of posts after she realized she'd been modeling all her heroes after Sam were hilariously sexy... or sexily hilarious. And it's poignantly sweet (sweetly poignant--argh. make it stop!) how they're both willing to give up their dreams for each other.It's not easily resolved, and the solution takes courage and determination from both of them, but the tension persists until the last page.I believe I have all of Kathleen O'Reilly's books in my TBR pile. I'm looking forward to finding the first two of this trilogy... and maybe reading them in order this time.
