      Synopsis

      NO LIMITS

      Surrender to the heat of the moment. Let your inhibitions melt away. Meet three of the sexiest men ever. Real men who know just how to please every woman they touch...

      KARIN TABKE, Stakeout

      Cool. Calm. Collected. That's gorgeous detective Stevie Cavanaugh. Solo surveillance on a male escort with a taste for dangerous play? No big deal. Until special agent Jack Thornton, the sexiest one-night stand she ever had, shows up to watch the action too-and gets Stevie hotter than hot.

      BONNIE EDWARDS, Bodywork

      Lisa Delaney's classic Cadillac coupe needs work and she knows exactly who to call: Tyce Branton. The man has a reputation for making temperamental engines purr like kittens. And when it comes to women, he has some very satisfied customers...

      SUNNY, Chinatown

      NYPD officer Lily Huang is kidnapped by a ruthless gang and held hostage. One man stands between her and her captors-the FBI agent who shares her cell. And desperate pleasure is their only escape.

      This is a REALLY HOT BOOKby Anonymous

      January 08, 2006: I took the title for this review off the back of the book, and Kensington wasn't quibbling when they added their disclaimer! The Hard Stuff is definitely hot, but it's a whole lot more. Three totally wonderful stories with terrific characters and engrossing plots. Karin Tabke's STAKEOUT features a tough detective paired with the one man she can't afford to be alone with, and there's an excellent reason for Stevie Cavanaugh's concern. Jack Thornton is one hot hero. Bonnie Edwards's novella, BODYWORK, gives an entirely new definition to sexual tension, with characters you find yourself rooting for long before the story ends. Sexy and heartwarming at the same time. It's absolutely wonderful. Sunny's exquisite writing in Chinatown makes for a mesmerizing finish to this fantastic anthology. Lily and Wes are trapped in a sensual prison of desire and discovery. Defnitely a wonderful story to finish off the collection. I highly recommend THE HARD STUFF to any reader who likes their stories hot, yet filled with emotion and fast, exciting action. This book is a terrific launch for Kensinton's new Aphrodisia line of erotica.

      November 21, 2005: ?Stakeout? by Karin Tabke. Police Detective Stevie Cavanaugh wets her pants salivating over the ?Italian Stallion? that she watches as Mario ?Rocky? Spoltori is hung. However, as she admires her target, Special Agent Jack ?Thorn? Thornton arrives at the surveillance site provoking memories of the best night she ever had fantasy could never match the hardness of reality, but he was married at the time. They still want one another but the divorced Thorn wonders whether Stevie will geld him or love him --- ?Bodywork? by Bonnie Edwards. Wealthy widow Lisa Delaney hires auto mechanic Tyce Branton as his touch is the best to fix her late husband?s classic car collection for an auction. Neither has forgotten twelve years ago, but he does not trust her as she disdained her trailer park roots which included him and married a sexagenarian. Lisa vows she will not lose her heart this time to the womanizer who tossed her aside years ago. Of course he is the best with body parts so she might consider a frolic or two. --- ?Chinatown' by Sunny. Lily Huang obtains the phony Chinese passport and Singapore visa that enables her illegally to enter New York where the ruthless people-smuggling Red Lion gang strip her, find her tracking device, and realize she is an undercover cop. They lock her in the basement with undercover FBI Agent Wes Penzatti. As they share captivity and more, they must escape before the merciless gang leader Billy Kim kills them, but freedom means the end of their togetherness fantasy. --- These three romantic novellas are well written stimulating tales. Though Bonnie Edwards? input does not seem to belong with the police procedural contributions, fans who like their literature torrid will enjoy this erotic anthology. --- Harriet Klausner
