"Erotica Contemporary - short story that has a cure for HOT FLASHES"

Nita Franklin, a hard-working reporter, has trouble sleeping: not from hot flashes but because of the erotic dreams she has been having. As a 48-year-old sensual woman, having her sleep distrubed by a sexy man is becoming frustrating. Her dream lover is so intoxicating, he begins to infringe on her waking hours.

While daydreaming about this unbelievable stud, he is suddenly on the phone with a familiar voice asking for her assistance. Martin Hawley, a man who is handsome and wealthy, has a daughter, Melinda, who has been kidnapped. Can Nita use her talents to find his daughter?

This story is written in the first person with very scorching descriptions of sexual play. The characters are believable, especially Nita, who appears to leap off the pages with her confidence and throbbing desire. I very much liked reading about someone who is more mature but still very passionate about life and love. Martin came across as a perfect mate for Nita. Thanks, Kate, for reminding us that we should play our hunches and take some chances in life.

Rated Hard R by the publisher.
