Book Description

April 5, 2005
Never in a million years did Logan Hart ever expect to find himself in his present situation-on stage, under hot lights, taking it all off for cash. Logan's a reporter, and a damn good one at that. But he knows this whole mess is nobody's fault but his own. After all, he's the one who boasted to the readership of his weekly column that he could last at least one shift in any Job. He even challenged his readers to come up with something he couldn't handle. Of course, the letters poured in. Logan's editor sifted through the responses and chose the assignments. So here he is. Stripping in public...Jody Dupree makes it a point never to stray outside of her personal comfort zone. Some people might disagree that patrolling the mean streets of New Orleans qualifies as anyone's comfort zone, but she loves her life as a cop. Her instincts are better than most, and being raised in the Louisiana swamps by a grandmother who dabbled in voodoo and witch- craft has given Jody an edge few people ever attain. Jody's grandmother taught her about signs to watch for that most people ignore. Like how to read people by watching their body language, when to stand her ground, and, when all else falls, when to run. It's fine with Jody that some of her co-workers are a little afraid of her eccentricities. She'd just as soon keep to herself. But her best friend Andrea, who works as a dispatcher at the police department, thinks Jody needs to develop more of a life outside law enforcement. So for Jody's birthday, Andrea drags her to a male strip show. When Logan Hart is introduced in a blinding flash of strobe lights and rainbow colours, Jody feels herself falling prey to the reporter's seductions. Jody's comfort zone is suddenly worlds away as she falls headlong into a realm of erotic fantasy.

More About the Author

Rosemary Rodgers hooked me on romance with 'Sweet Savage Love'. I consumed books after that until I decided I wanted to try my hand at writing. Not as easy as it looks! But I'd found my niche. I instinctively knew this is what I wanted to do.

Luckily, I'm married to a wonderful man who gives me 100% support in anything I want to try. He not only told me to go for my dream, but he encouraged me not to give up.

And the dream did become reality. Wow! I still have to pinch myself. I love being an author!

5.0 out of 5 stars Sequel to Southern Comfort is a must read!, March 26, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Southern Exposure (Paperback)
Logan Hart had challenged the readers of his newspaper that he can do any job for a day so that's how he found himself on center stage in a strip club getting ready to take off his clothes for a bunch of screaming women. New Orleans' Police Officer Jody Dupree's best friend Andrea has dragged her to the club for her birthday, determined that Jody is going to have fun if it kills her. One scandalous dance later Logan and Jody find themselves in a motel and having an unforgettable night together. They both find themselves connecting on an emotional level to the other but while Logan is sleeping Jody sneaks out. And since neither were honest about themselves Logan has no idea how to find her. They both get the shock of their lives when Logan starts his next article and Jody is assigned to take him on patrol with her. He's determined that Jody is going to let him inside and due to the tragedy of her past Jody is determined that she can't afford to be involved with anyone. Especially since she's inherited her mother's ability to have visions of the future, visions that have shown her that Logan's life is in danger. Now, with a killer after Jody can Logan protect her while convincing her that he can take care of himself and that visions or no visions he plans on sticking around.

Southern Exposure is the sequel to Karen Kelley's Southern Comfort. Those who haven't read Southern Comfort missed a treat but will find that Southern Exposure easily stands alone. Readers who had the pleasure of reading Southern Comfort will enjoy Wade and Fallon's appearance in this book. Both Logan and Jody are wonderful characters who readers will fall in love with. Add to this the much awaited anticipation of Jody and Fallon finding each other again, the secondary love story between Logan's brother Kevin and Andrea, along with lush love scenes and a crazy swamp living grandmother and Souther Exposure will have readers waiting anxiously for Karen Kelley's next book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hot, Steamy and a Must-Have!!, June 22, 2005
By 
This review is from: Southern Exposure (Paperback)
What a great follow-up to Southern Comfort. Ms Kelley certainly knows how to keep a reader up all night. I couldn't put this book down. Logan is one of the sexiest characters I've seen in a while. He knows how to make the ladies pant! Jody is definitely equal to the task of taming him though. The bayous of Louisiana provided an excellent backdrop, adding its own blend of mystery and hot sexy nights. With each release Ms Kelley demonstrates over and over the depth of her talent. I hope she keeps 'em coming.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Follow-up To "Southern Comfort"!, April 18, 2005
This review is from: Southern Exposure (Paperback)
Ms. Kelly has penned another fast page turning read that fans of romantic suspense/paranormal romance will find very entertaining.

Jody Dupree has been living life in the shadows waiting for the past to finally catch up with her present. Her friend Andrea is bound and determined that her friend have fun on her birthday. She takes Jody to a strip club and there Jody meets her future. Logan Hart is the first man that has moved her. One naughty dance later they find themselves sharing one night that neither can forget. Jody sneaks out while Logan sleeps but she can't run from her destiny.

Logan is a newspaper reporter looking for the one story that will land him his dream job as editor. His latest assignment calls for him to take on different jobs. One job is that of stripper for one night. This one job will lead him to the story of a lifetime and the one woman he can't get out of his head. When he finds out that Jody is hiding something from him he will do what it takes to find out what has his beautiful lady scared. Will he be able to balance the feelings he has for Jody with his need to write the story of the year? Will Jody finally realize that she can allow people close to her without losing it all?

This was a very steamy read with dynamic and compelling characters. This is without a doubt a stand alone read even though it's the second part of a series. In other words you won't be missing anything accept another good read if you've not read "Southern Comfort." Jody and Logan are wonderful protaganists and there story is very emotional. I love stories like that. Ms. Kelly is an author I think we should keep our eyes on.
