Too Hot
Part one of The Exposed Trilogy.
“I’m gonna assume from the hangover that you ain’t got nothing for me.”
“I’m trying,” she said, feeling weak and feeble for a moment.
“Maybe I got something for you.”
She looked up, an eyebrow crooked high. “Last time you had a lead, Nixon was in office.”
“Shut up Porter,” he said with a soft smile. “Punch up Alejandro Moreno.”
Claire sat forward, slipping the mug to the side of her mouse. The loudness of the keys as she typed echoed through her skull. The search culminated on a webpage, at the top of which was a photo of Alejandro. His olive skin gave him a delicious glow, tempered by the strong jaw and thick dark hair. Only his eyes were sexier.
“Don’t know him,” Claire admitted, still staring at his face.
“No one does.” Ken lowered his voice. “Came out of nowhere last year, throwing money round the party scene at Pac Heights.”
“Rich too?” Claire shrunk at the glower from her boss.
“He’s holed up in Sea Cliff. Bought. Not rental.”
“You’re thinking drugs.”
“I’m not thinking anything. IRS has no record of him.”
“Maybe an alias.”
“Maybe. If only we had some way of finding out.”
Claire sat back and looked at him. He hadn’t shaved today, and it just made him even more attractive. She was torn between the physical presence of her editor and the steely-jawed beauty looking back at her from the monitor.
“I’m failing to see the story here.”
“Let’s call it a mystery that I want solved.”
“Might take some overtime.”
“No chance,” he growled. “Get yourself a dress and wrangle an invite to his house.”
She must have given him a look, because he added; “He’s having a party tonight. Stick your nose in and see what you can smell.”
“Pleasant image.”
“Get me a story, or I can’t justify keeping you on the street.”
With that less than idle threat, he walked away. She knew how precarious her job was. Claire was a reporter, and if nothing else, this was an assignment.
She looked at Alejandro on the screen, admired him with a little grin.
Now all she had to do was get inside his house.
And as a bonus, she was going to have him.

"Alexis Shore can truly write a smoking hot sex scene." The Romance Reviews
I was born just outside of New Orleans, but we moved to the UK when I was 8. I live in the Cotswolds now.
When I left university and became a full-time writer, the internet was just kicking off, and I used it for all sorts of sexy fun.
I've channelled that energy into writing erotica now, and here I am.
That's not true of course.
I'm a Nom De Plume; just another character living inside the mind of my creator.
I'm sure you understand.

Hot intriguing read! Claire is a journalist and Ken is her boss. She hasn't written a story in weeks and needs something to go her way. She is drinking and bringing home different guys most nights but something is still missing. Ken gives her a tip for a story. She is to get an invitation to Alexandro's party and get to know him. By looking at his picture she can see he is attractive. She guarantees that she will get the inside information on him and have him in her with no trouble at all. But what she doesn't realize until the next morning is the most shocking part of all, there are...nope, sorry. You gotta read it to find out. There is a bunch of hot sex in this book and you know you want to find our what happens. Can't wait to read the next book!

It ends...
with a cliffhanger to get you interested in the next installment. I am not sure where the author is going. I'm not sure I like any of the characters and that doesn't make me want to rush and learn more about them.

Sizzling hot!
Great story! Well written with lots of action. A down and out reporter working a story to make end meat. With a jaw dropping ending! I have to read part two.
