Chilli Heat: A Passion in India
When her traveling companion lets her down at short notice, Nadia reluctantly agrees to take her recently divorced mother, Valerie, on her trip to India. However, her mother turns out to be anything but the conservative presence she had feared. As the two women explore India’s most exotic locations, it is Valerie who experiences a sexual reawakening with a succession of lovers and Nadia who is forced to wrestle with her own inhibitions and repressed desires. The landscape and the people ultimately work their transforming magic on both mother and daughter, causing Valerie to think again about her ex-husband and tempting Nadia with the possibility of true love.

Eighteen year old Nadia has planned a trip with her friend Kate to travel through India, when suddenly Kate bails out. Nadia's mother Valerie suggests taking her place. Since Nadia realizes traveling alone is not really a good idea for a young woman like herself, she welcomes her mother to come with her even though they are total opposites. Nadia wants to finally lose her virginity and is not sure of her sexual orientation. Plus, her parents have ended their twenty-five year marriage. Forty-five year old Valerie has lived a staid life and hopes this trip will be filled with excitement. As soon as they reach Mumbai, her wish comes to Valerie in the form of Charles. The first night there, Valerie meets Charles who gives her a night of rough yet wonderful sex. Nadia is upset by her mother's actions but comes to understand those sexual needs her mother has since she also has them. From that first night on, Valerie's vacation leads to more intimate encounters with many men.
As Nadia and Valerie travel all over India, Nadia is still untouched, afraid to go after either men or women, while Valerie goes on a sexually awakening of sorts. Even though Valerie may be middle aged, the men she is intimate with are much younger than she, such as her camel driver, Abhay, and her yoga instructor, Chris, who runs a beach side retreat. Valerie falls for Chris quickly as he helps her reach nirvana through his special hands-on yoga techniques. Nadia is soon so fed up with her mother that she goes off alone.
Nadia soon meets Sue and Dean, a brother and sister on vacation. Nadia falls for Sue's charms, and she has her first lesbian experience. Soon after, Dean takes her virginity, and all three become lovers. Nadia thought she would be fulfilled by these two who are so very talented in the ways of pleasure, just like Valerie thought she had that something special with Chris. Mother and daughter must deal with their sexual urges, and they both wonder if they can ever go home to the lives they have left behind.
CHILI HEAT is one eye opening erotic tale about a mother and daughter who are finally free for the first time in their lives. I was a bit shocked by the lengths they both go to as they find themselves in sexual adventures you will not believe. Valerie's actions may be so very shocking, but this is a woman, who, for the past twenty-five years, never really lived the way she has longed to. Her passions explode with so many different men, and the sexual acts she is involved in will shock but tantalize.
Nadia is very much a young girl so lost about herself in terms of her future and her sexuality. She feels if she can find the right sexual partner, she will be whole. And when she thinks she has found that with Brad and Sue, she soon realizes how very wrong she was. Nadia and Valerie learn so much from their experiences in India, even though I personally wouldn't go that way, but since this is an erotic tale, I had to suspend my disbelief.
CHILI HEAT is not for every reader. The sex Valerie has is somewhat impersonal, harsh, and a bit sad. I did enjoy how Carrie Williams wrote from both Valerie's and Nadia's first person points of view, and I think most will appreciate the outcome of both these women's stories. Hot, naughty, and steamy are only some of the words to explain CHILI HEAT and the erotic storytelling of Carrie Williams.

"The book started out promisingly enough - Nadia's confusion about her sexuality was well-written and contrasted well with her mother's enthusiastic rediscovery of her own sexual desires. Unfortunately as the story wore on I became increasingly annoyed with both characters and their tendency to fall in love at the drop of a hat. However, I was ready to give the book a solid 3 stars until the incredibly rushed, cheese-tastic denouement wiped out any goodwill I still held for the novel. Disappointing."
