Forbidden: Interracial Heat #2
It’s 1962, and eighteen year-old Kyle has taken a summer job as a grocery store stocker to earn money for books for college. It’s easy work, and Kyle likes that he can do his job without bothering anyone, and without anyone but Mr. Lefker, his boss, and Wily, the senior stocker, bothering him.
Except on Wednesdays.
Wednesdays are Willy’s day off, so Kyle has to fill in and deliver groceries to the suburbs in Willy’s place.
In Kyle’s view, the only good thing about the extra work is that he might earn tips from some of the kinder and more generous housewives. But then he discovers that delivering groceries can expose him to other good things.
Mrs. Phillips is young and beautiful – one of the most beautiful women Kyle has ever seen. From the moment he lays eyes on her, he’s smitten. But there’s nothing he can do about it. She’s a married woman, after all. And even if she were single, most of society would frown on them even being friends, much less acting out the passionate encounters that play out in Kyle’s daydreams. He knows that his daydreams about Mrs. Phillips will only ever be dreams…
…unless Mrs. Phillips is having similar fantasies about him.
In the second installment of the Interracial Heat series, S.L. Bishop once again ignites the pages with a tale of passion that proves that desire knows no color, and that the risks are worth the sweet reward, even in an era in which the reward is forbidden.

I like that this is a period piece, set in the early 1960s. It adds more tension because the relationship between the characters was more than just risque, it was taboo. Unlike today when some might just frown upon a relationship between black and white characters, in that era there could have been dangerous repercussions.
