From the Author
Dear Reader,

A few years ago, we had the opportunity to drive to California on the infamous Route 66. Haven't you done it? You have to! And along the way, put aside some special time to explore New Mexico. By far, the state was the most magically romantic place we encountered along the way. Once you're there, gaze out at the infinite rolling desert, broken only by breathtaking mesas at sunset and tell us if you don't see our characters, Dulcy Ferris and Quinn Landis embracing in the distance. (And be thankful you can't see what else they're doing…)

In A STRANGER'S TOUCH, sexy litigation attorney Dulcy Ferris is one week away from entering a passionless marriage…until gorgeous Quinn Landis tempts her with everything she told herself she didn't need but now urgently wants. One blazing night of passion leaves her questioning everything--including the mysterious disappearance of her fiance, and the realization that her new lover is also the best man!

We hope you enjoy Quinn and Dulcy's sizzling adventure. Let us know what you think. You can write to us at P.O.Happy (and hot) reading!

Lori & Tony Karayianni aka Tori Carrington

5.0 out of 5 stars Naughty, sweet, and hot! Very highly recommended, May 9, 2002

Eight days before her wedding, Dulcy Farris' two best friends take her to a bar for a private bachelorette party. A few too many tequila shots loosen tongues, and Dulcy confesses her forbidden fantasy of making love to a complete stranger in an elevator. Little does she suspect that events will conspire to make her inebriated wish come true. Too long without a man's touch has left her hungry for more than Brad's chaste promise of consummating their relationship on their wedding night.

Quinn Landis has that sexy, bad-boy look that turns women's thoughts to erotica. When he arrives at the bar on the prowl after too many nights alone, he does not expect find such a sensual bad-girl playing good. Molten temptation brings them together in a fiery fantasy come true that leaves them both shaken. Too bad that they will never see one another again. But they do, in the most expected context. Dulcy's fiancé Brad has gone missing, and Quinn had arrived in town to be Brad's best man.

Writing team Tori Carrington out do themselves in sensual treat that truly dares wildest fantasy in A STRANGER'S TOUCH. They capture the essence of the moral dilemma of two people who are perfect for one another, but bound by loyalty to the same man. Dulcy plans to marry a man she does not love for security, and her ethics do not allow her easily fall in love with someone else. Quinn and Brad grew up together, bound by bonds deeply rooted into their shared history. With Brad missing, neither Dulcy nor Quinn have the easy option of setting things straight, and the added complications of Brad's disappearance and lifestyle only compound their problems. Indeed, A STRANGER'S TOUCH possesses a daring plot that easily could descend into justification or moral improbabilities; instead, it becomes sensually erotic, emotionally challenging, and morally believable. In addition, Carrington has a gift for portraying both male and female point of view in a fluid style that greatly enriches the tale; this gift is especially effective and entertaining in A STRANGER'S TOUCH. Add this one to your keeper shelf; it comes very highly recommended!
