Melissa MacNeal brings sexy back with her erotic pirate romance,Hot For It.
A series of hard knocks has left romance author Cat Gamble depressed, alone,
and unable to work productively on hernext novel. Enter a serendipitous
Powerball win and Cat leaves the workaday world for a Caribbean island and
the chance to make all her dreams—erotic and otherwise—come true.
Cat purchases an island paradise whose current caretakers are a gorgeous and
sexually adventuresome couple. After witnessing one of their trysts on the
beach, Cat realizes that life on her private island would be greatly
enhanced by her own special someone with whom to share sex on the beach. Cat
posts a website advertising her “rich, single, and looking” status and
receives a response from a pirate captain, Jack Spankevopolous, who runs a
fantasy vacation company.
The chemistry and sexual tension between the two ignite immediately so Cat
arranges to be kidnapped by him and his crew. The night of the kidnapping
arrives and Cat is ready to begin her romantic adventures on the high seas
with sexy Captain Jack. She realizes something is fishy when she wakes up
from a drug-induced sleep locked in a castle on a remote island. Cat quickly
learns that she will be trained in the sex trade and then sold as a sex
slave by her captor, Mr. Wong. While Wong attempts to humiliate Cat at every
turn, she defies him by participating willingly in the erotic scenarios he
devises for her and his sexy sons. While Cat attempts subtle ways of
escaping from the randy Wongs, Captain Jack is hot on their trail
with a brilliant plan for rescuing Cat, in swashbuckling pirate style, of
course.
Readers looking for erotic adventures that end happily, and sexily, ever
after will not be disappointed by this book. MacNeal delights with her sense
of humor and well-crafted plot. While this book contains plenty of hot sex
(heed the warning label!), readers will also cheer for Cat’s triumph over
adversity and her search for a meaningful romantic relationship.
