BLOG TOUR – BOOK REVIEW/GIVEAWAY – Hot Shade

4 STARS!

Luca Rossi is sitting on his balcony minding his own business, when he witnesses a small plane crash right on the beach in front of his house. He is hesitant to call 911 because he doesn’t want to have to give his personal information, but he runs down there to see if he can help the guy that was mowed over. The pilot is getting out of the plane as Luca approaches and he has him call 911 while he helps the guy.

Luca hurries back to his house as soon as he can because he doesn’t like being out in the open. Unfortunately, people tell a reporter that the “Good Samaritan” might live around that area and Skylar Shaw comes nosing around. Luca wants to get rid of her as quickly as possible because he wants to remain anonymous, but he finds himself being extremely attracted to her and can’t help but flirt. He tries to resist her, but finds himself attempting to seduce her as the day goes on and he runs into her again. Skylar likes him, but she doesn’t understand his secretive behavior and isn’t sure that she can trust him.

Will Luca decide to trust her with the secrets that have him on the run from the Italian Mafia, or will he decide to end things with her in order to keep her at arms length? And will Sky decide that she trusts Luca enough to give herself to him even though she knows he’s keeping his life a secret from her?

KEYNOTE:

Journalist Skylar Shaw covers a plane crash on a Florida beach that leads her to a handsome yet mysterious Italian man…and the conspiracy that threatens all he holds dear.

BACK COVER COPY:

Romance is the last thing on reporter Skylar Shaw’s mind when she covers a plane crash on a Florida beach. Her best source could be a mysterious Italian man, but he’s strictly off the record—unless it involves indulging their electrifying attraction to each other. Little does Skylar know, but that crash is only the beginning.

Luca Rossi is hiding a big secret: He’s a journalist, too, and his anonymous exposé on the Mafia destroyed his world. Now, after two lonely years on the run, he will do anything to possess this vulnerable American beauty. But Skylar is as relentless as the Florida glare, and the situation ignites when she reports on a gruesome murder in a swamp. Soon erotic nights will bleed into dangerous days, and nowhere will be safe from the heat.
