What They're Saying About The Southern Heat Series:
Choice Matters
These two are electric together. He is commanding and likes the fact she is a strong woman who can handle hard to deal with things. The story kept me entertained even when I was trying to keep up with what was going on. The author succeeded in making me love both these characters as well as making me want to help knock down the competition. Enjoyable fast read with a hot alpha male that most women would love to have for their own.
How can you not love Apolo Choice? He's rich, powerful, but also very nice. He's strong and knows what he wants, but he can also be gentle and loving. Caitlyn is a strong woman and not afraid to speak her mind. The love story between Apolo and Caitlyn sizzles. These two are just good together. If you're in the mood to read a hot romance, this is the book for you.
Choice Affairs
.
...no matter what life throws in Apollo and Caitlyn's way, they have each other's backs and love each other very dearly...
The book was action packed and it kept you on the edge of your seat just wanting to know how things would play out. There were attempted kidnapping, paparazzi, crazy family members and embezzlement. It really tested Apollo and Caitlyn’s relationship and you get to go through and experience these trials with them. It made them a more realistic couple. In book one; everything happened so fast that you didn’t really get to see them as a couple much. But with the second book, you really saw the couple grow.
...Jamie Salisbury does an excellent job bringing you into her world. I read Choice Affairs in one day. I couldn't put it down. It just flows so well and I needed to know what was going to happen next.
Choice Desires
I read both of the other books in this series, so I was happy when this one finally came out. Apolo Choice has to make some tough decisions in this book. A couple of things happen that you won't be expecting. His wife, Caitlyn, is always supportive. They have disagreements, but as a couple, they are united in family as well as in circumstances concerning Caitlyn's mother. And then there's the little red-haired beauty that comes into their lives. You'll fall in love with Apolo, Caitlyn, and Briana. You'll be annoyed by Susan, Caitlyn's mother, but that's part of what makes this book interesting. You can't wait to see what she'll do next!
I liked this third one in the series the best of all of them.
To all my readers and those who have helped me behind the scenes: Thank you from the bottom my heat. You ROCK!
Happy Holidays!
Chapter One
Caitlyn
The Christmas holidays are fast approaching and there are some days I wonder whether or not I'll survive. It's Briana's first holiday season with us, which is making it extra special. Her Christmas wish list resembles a small book. I wonder why?
Apolo is like a huge kid himself this year. I left him in charge of decorating the outside of the house and the grounds at the house in Atlanta. To say he's gone overboard would be an understatement. He hired someone to decorate, obviously told them to spare no expense. With the electricity being used to light everything, I believe a small country might be able to run for weeks on the energy used. Of course, it is Apolo and Briana's masterpiece, the best in the city if not state, or so they claim.
I've been in charge of decorating the inside. With the exception of the tree in the family room, the rest were done by a firm that specializes in this, along with the house staff. Decorating Christmas trees as a profession. Who would have thought?
As a surprise, I had a tree put in Briana's room, decorated with her favorite things. I can't wait for her to come home from school today and find it in her room.
Shopping. I've been trying to do the majority on line. Izzie's been a huge help with this. Especially the things Briana wants, and that's what makes online shopping such a godsend. We can both do it and not have to worry about things being sold out.
In fact when it comes to shopping, Apolo's being most secretive. Which makes me wonder what he's up to. No good, knowing my husband.
Sitting in the office I now share with Izzie, I glance at my calendar to see what's coming up. Izzie's online doing some shopping for me. Humming. That worries me. She's in too good a mood.
Izzie, my best friend, came back to Atlanta unhappy with the job she'd taken in Houston. She had originally thought she'd give them until the end of the year, but my husband managed to encourage her to move it up. Apolo and I offered her an apartment on the top floor of the mansion until she found a job. She was a great help with Briana. Izzie was also helping us with the non-profit we'd started for disabled people. We'd decided to keep the Washington DC office going, and after the madness of the holidays would proceed with opening one in Atlanta. It would be the headquarters. For now we were working it here in the office.
I swear I've never met anyone who loves to shop online like you.
It's for Briana, so it's a little more fun.
Yes, it is. I only hope Apolo doesn't buy her a toy store or something. He doesn't know how to say no where she's concerned.
I think it's sweet, not a side he shows very often.
True. She has mellowed him out a little.
Speaking of Apolo, where is he? I thought he was limiting his days at the office until after the first of the year.
He is, and I believe he's in the gym with Olga.
Izzie shook her head and pretended to shiver. That woman gives me the cold chills.
She's been great helping Apolo get back into a fitness routine. Otherwise he'd overdo it. Like he does everything.
Yeah, but she's just...
Just what?
I giggled. She's a dominatrix, Izzie. At least that's what Apolo says.
How would he know?
He looked her up. I don't know if they've ever had a discussion about it.
Afraid she'll bring out the whips and stuff?
Not going there, Izzie.
Yeah, kinda creepy, huh?
Izzie...
I thought you worked out with Apolo sometimes?
I do. On the day's Olga's not here.
She really does creep you out.
No, she's here to rehab Apolo. I don't want to interfere with that.
Good point.
Oh great,
I moaned, looking at my phone which had been vibrating on the desk.
What?
A text from Renee. It seems my mother's up to her usual tricks. Trying to find out how to get in touch with us.
What'd she do this time?
