Book Description

Kimani Romance July 1, 2010
Nikki Jamison didn't know being a playwright in New York would end up like this. After a few financial and creative flops, she's determined to put her Broadway dreams behind her. Recalling a friend's story about an empty villa in St. Lucia, Nikki decides that it's the perfect place to recover—in luxury! But when the home owner shows up unexpectedly, Nikki's little white lie leads to an out-of-control marital charade.

Hylan Dawson is married. Only problem is he doesn't know it. When Hylan takes off for his vacation home, his plan is to get a little R & R…maybe indulge in a summer fling. But as soon as he arrives on the island, the locals begin congratulating him on his recent nuptials. Hylan feels for his sexy wife, even if she is an impostor. Are the "newlyweds" falling into a bed of sizzling summer seduction—or marching toward a lifetime of wedded bliss?

This story had me rolling in the floor laughing! Loved it! Nikki and Hylan are definitely made for each other. Her family is a mess. His family is a bigger mess and their friends are even a bigger mess. You will not be able to put this book down until you finish it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Heat is On, July 29, 2010
This review is from: Body Heat (Kimani Romance) (Mass Market Paperback)
Down on her luck playwright Nikki Jamison just needs a break from it all. After suffering a financial and creative disaster Nikki decides to take her friends suggestion and lick her wounds in the lap of luxury at an empty villa in St Lucia. When the home owner shows up for a rare visit, Nikki's little white lies take her on an adventure far beyond her imagination.

Hylan Dawson arrives at his summer home in St Lucia to be greeted by his wife. The problem, he's not married. Feeling sorry for his newly acquired and very sexy "wife", Hylan goes along with her story but the growing chemistry between them is more than either of them bargained for.

In this latest installment of the Kappa Psi Kappa brothers stories, Ms Byrd has done it again. From the two main characters to the cast of supporting characters "Body Heat" will hold your attention from beginning to end. The growing chemistry between Nikki and Hylan will have you reaching for your ice water as you crank up the air conditioner, while Nikki's antics to make her "marriage" a happy one will have you chuckling out loud.

This is a great read to put you in vacation mode or at least take your mind there if your body can't be!
