Sex & Candy #4

by Carrie Alexander

Lei è stanca di rimanere sempre a bocca asciutta. Qui ci vuole un uomo da assaggiare.

Karina Sutter è famosa per gli squisiti cioccolatini che riesce a creare. Grazie a una segretissima ricetta di famiglia le sue praline, oltre che buonissime, pare stimolino certe parti del corpo, rendendole più vitali. Pare, perché Karina non ha mai verificato di persona quegli effetti tanto straordinari.

Quando Alex Anderson si vede comparire sulla soglia di casa una splendida donna che gli offre una scatola di tartufi al cioccolato è sicuro che sotto ci sia qualcosa di losco. Possibile che sia solo un'azione di buon vicinato? Alex non può credere di essere così fortunato, anche perché non sa cosa siano più invitanti: le curve di Karina o il carico di fondenti calorie che si porta appresso?

About the author

There was never any doubt that Carrie Antilla would have a creative career. As a two-year-old, she imagined dinosaurs on the lawn. By six it was witches in the bedroom closet. Soon she was designing elaborate paper-doll wardrobes and writing stories about Teddy the Bear. Eventually she graduated to short horror stories and oil paints. She was working as an artist and a part-time librarian when she "discovered" her first romance novel and thought, "Hey, I can write one of these!" So she did.

Carrie Alexander is now the author of several books for various Harlequin lines, with many more crowding her imagination, demanding to be written. She has been a RITA and Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice finalist, but finds her greatest reward in becoming friends with her readers, even if it's only for the length of a book.

Carrie lives in the upper peninsula of Michigan, where the long winters still don't give her enough time to significantly reduce her to-be-read mountains of books. When she's not reading or writing (which is rare), she is painting and decorating her own or her friends' houses, watching football, and shoveling snow. She loves to hear from readers, who can contact her by e-mail: carriealexander1@aol.com
