Saffron Nights

Wherever they travel, there’s an aphrodisiac waiting to whet their
appetites…
Brazil…Hawaii…India….As a food writer, Maeve has just been handed the
hottest opportunity of her career. She’s being sent on an international
research tour for an aphrodisiac cookbook. The downside is that she has to
travel with rock star photographer and womanizer Jackson Dodds. And the upside
is that she has to travel with Jackson Dodds. Because once they meet, Maeve understands
why he’s been named “America’s Most Eligible Bachelor”—and despite her best
intentions, all she can think about is putting their arousing recipes to the
test…
Sexy and talented, Jackson can have any woman he desires. But lately,
the thrill is gone—until he lays eyes on Maeve, who exudes sensuality like no
one else. She’s determined to keep things professional, but he knows the
attraction is mutual. And as they travel the world, sampling warming saffron,
juicy papaya, silky avocado, rare herbs and teas—and a mushroom whose very
aroma sends women to heights of ecstasy—both discover a hunger they’ve never
known, and don’t want to resist, even amid unexpected danger…

Excerpt:
“Hard to
imagine these ugly little truffles are so delicious,” she said to Jackson, as
they walked toward the villa.
“Better
than the jellyfish?”
“Ah, no,
I don’t think so. I was surprised I like them,” she said. Mr. Mei Lei had
carefully prepared jellyfish for her dinner on her last evening in Hong Kong.
They weren’t fishy at all and she loved the golden-ink color of the gel and the
way it felt, so smooth, on her tongue, all the way down into her throat.
“I’m
surprised you remember how much I liked the jellyfish,” she said.
“Why?” he
said, tilting his head just so and she imagined tilting her head the other way,
just so. Lips on lips. Tongues twirling. The memories of their kiss
tugged at her.
“I just
didn’t think you were paying attention,” she said.
“You’d be
surprised what I see when it looks like I’m not paying attention,” he said,
moving closer to her. She could see, now, the faint pink tint around his nose
and lips from the cold. He grinned. Don’t do that, don’t look at me like that
while I’m trying to work. Don’t look at me as if you know exactly what I’m
thinking, as if you know exactly what to do with all these body parts standing
at attention, tingling.
She
looked away at the resting dogs.
