Secrets Volume 21, December 2007
Red Sage Publishing   
University librarian Anna Winter worked hard all
her life to escape the blond bimbo image
flaunted by both her mother and sister—maybe
too hard.  At the age of twenty-six, Anna’s still a
virgin.  

On her summer vacation to the Amazon, Anna
gets lost and stumbles upon a tribe whose
shaman just happens to be looking for a pale-
skinned virgin.  The tribe’s self-styled chief,
Coop Daventry, a British adventurer, has a plan
to help Anna escape the shaman’s bed.

But as the games and deceptions heat up
between Coop and Anna, which man poses a
greater threat to Anna’s virginity—the shaman
or Coop himself?

Vivica Steele arrived in Las Vegas a naive seventeen year old
runaway, exploited by the first man she met at the bus station.  She
scratched and clawed her way to the top to establish her own
exclusive male strip club, the Lollipop Lounge.  She calls the shots
now, and the men in her employ jump when she whistles.  But when
a new Lollipop Boy shows up at the club for work, he starts to melt
her hard edges.  

Jack Slater, a former L.A. cop who pissed off the wrong people, finds
fertile ground for his detective skills in Las Vegas.  His latest job
lands him in a leopard-print g-string at the Lollipop Lounge to find a
dancer who absconded with some priceless jewels that belong to
his client's mother.  

At first Jack believes Vivica is involved in the scam, or at least that's
his excuse for getting close to the stand-offish owner of the club.  But
he soon discovers that Vivica's past is responsible for her tough talk,
and the only thing she's guilty of is a little sexual harassment on the
job.  Now Jack's determined to save Vivica's club...and her heart.

When Rafe Kincaid, the man who broke her
heart, asks bounty hunter, Cassie Cartwright,
to help him reel in a date rapist who jumped
bail, she reluctantly agrees.  Their assignment
lands them in the middle of a decadent house
party where a powerful drug strips Cassie of
her inhibitions.  Is her love for Rafe strong
enough to break the drug’s insidious control of
her desires, or will she succumb to its
dangerous call to passion?
"...a great story with which to open the latest Secrets
anthology. A thoroughly enjoyable read, I couldn’t put it down
as I watched the simmering attraction between Viv and Jack.

... Where this story really shines is in the sexual tension
between Jack and Viv. Jack’s arrogance and Viv’s coldness
are great contrasts that work very well in this fast-paced
novella.
