The Barnes Noble ReviewDo you like romances that sizzle? Carly Phillips really turns up the heat in Simply Sexy, her response to reader requests for a story about the sister of Body Heat hero Jake Lowell. It's been a year and a half since her husband's death, and Rina Lowell has finally made the fresh start she's been promising herself. After years of marriage to a wealthy man who loved her but never really understood her, Rina revels in the thought that she can now design her future to suit herself. She's left her big-city life behind and relocated to the small Massachusetts town of Ashford. And her new job there, as a staff writer for the local paper, seems tailor-made – she can observe and report, and enjoy life without risking either her freedom or her heart. You see, while Rina is determined to avoid relationships, she's decided that sex is a different issue – one she plans to explore in her new column called "Hot Stuff." She thinks that a holiday fling with her new boss, sexy sportswriter Colin Lyons, would be a great way to research her first tantalizing topic, "What Do Men Want?" Unfortunately, much as Colin's curiosity is aroused by Rina's proposal, he thinks the failing paper can't afford to waste space on a "fluff piece" like "Hot Stuff"…and their difference of opinion quickly grows heated, both professionally and personally… Sue Stone
