Fresh Fiction Review

Seductive As Flame
Susan Johnson

Reviewed by Kathyrn Little

Romance Historical | Romance Erotica Sensual

Alec Monro is stuck in a loveless marriage. Zelda is a sensuous "flame-haired" beauty who does not hide her sexuality. There is an instant attraction, the two exchange heated glances within the first couple of chapters that transforms into a hot, steamy love affair. Alec is always trying to hide his caring, compassionate exterior under a cool facade; Zelda hopes she is the woman to bring out those qualities. The two spend many weeks together-weeks Alec did not anticipate as he rarely spends times around his paramours. The only obstacle to Alec's bliss? His wife. The reader may be horrified that Alex is cheating so blatantly on his wife, but his wife is portrayed as the type who fools around on Alec and does not care for her son-a son whose paternity is debateable. SEDUCTIVE AS FLAME is steamy and fast-paced, an overall great read for any romance reader. Be sure to have an iced drink near by as you read to keep you cool.

SUMMARY

It was common gossip that there wasn't a woman alive safe from the seductive skills of Alec Monro, Earl of Dalgliesh. On the other hand, there wasn't a woman alive who didn't secretly covet a dalliance with the audacious, disreputable, dangerously exciting lover. After all, he was as handsome as a god, and his endowments were as legendary as his sexual stamina. That he was immeasurably wealthy only added to his charm. Zelda MacKenzie, a magnificent, flame-haired Scottish beauty, inspired whispers of her own. She was rumored to be a witch--if only for the curious native jewels and unusual garb she'd brought home from her orchid-hunting expedition to Brazil. That's not to say she wasn't bewitching. On the contrary.. But Zelda made it quite clear to the earl that she had no interest in libertines.
