Butterflies in Heat

by Darwin Porter

Scorching, bizarre, and flamboyant. A strikingly beautiful blond hustler, Numie Chase, comes to the searing heat of Tortuga, southernmost point in the Continental US--the end of the line. There, he arouses passions in six decadent but vulnerable people, whose lives mesh together under the blood-red sun.

Reviews

[Liam Ostermann · Rating 1 out of 5]

Way to silly and badly written to waste time on - even if you have patience for clichés this book is over the top and once you have a two second giggle over its idiocies it just isn't good enough to be proper trash - at some level this book is taking itself seriously - which is just sad.
