Skin on Skin

Mouth to mouth, body to body . . . When it comes to sex, nothing should get in the way of unbridled carnal pleasure. And this summer three of erotic romance's boldest new voices show you exactly why barer is better in three novellas that will take you to the heights of naked desire . . . "China Doll" by Sunny When Rand and Anna meet in the lush heat of an Indonesian hotel, it's strictly one night only for two strangers looking to banish the ghosts in their pasts. But more than their skin is bared when they come together in the tropical heat, and before long they're aching for more . . . "Tempted" by Jami Alden Friends as well as coworkers, Lauren and Tony have maintained a strict hands-off policy with each other-until an out-of-town party gives them an excuse to share a hotel room. And when they do, their clothes come off-and the new rule is definitely hands on . . . "Hot Wired" by Valerie Martinez Spending a summer in San Francisco before starting her career, Lola is looking for fun.
