"A very hot contemporary"

Lily, Ceci, and Serena are back home in Ely for the summer. Each has their reasons for coming back home.

Lily is recovering from a bad divorce. She found her TV anchor husband in bed with his blonde female co-anchor. He wasn't the type of man to let his wife leave him without making it hard for her, even if it was his fault. Lily has decided to take a year off from TV work and come back home. During this time she's going to be teaching at the local college. Once back home, she has need of a handyman at her house and her friends recommend the local hunk.

Ceci is the local poet and a cynic when it comes to love. Last summer she had a secret clandestine love affair and this summer she seems to be picking up where she left off.

Serena has always felt at home in high society. The men she dates are usually married, rich, and considerably older. They usually give her expensive jewelry and she's become accustomed to the attention. Little did she know that her trip home would find her attracted to the local Sheriff, who's definitely not her usual type of man.

This was a very hot contemporary. The relationship between the three women was enjoyable to read about as well as the developing relationships with the men.

Summary

Three best friends from the city are coming home this summer--and temperatures are going to soar. For each, the small lakeside town of Ely holds warm memories of erotic trysts and first crushes, passionate nights and bittersweet heartbreak. Now they are returning to their hometown for the hottest summer of their lives--and three new chances at love. . . For Serena, the bored would-be socialite, the passion she's been missing comes in the form of a man all wrong for her-- for all the deliciously right reasons. For Ceci, the poet and cynic, the art of love was a carefully orchestrated game--until the town bad boy teaches her the pleasure of losing control. And for Lily, the cable TV star recovering from a broken marriage, the carefree summer fling she'd begun with Ely's most handsome and eligible resident burns with a sensual heat that will melt every taboo. Neither Lily, Ceci, nor Serena knows how the summer will end, but one thing is certain--each will experience a seduction to remember. . .
