Shy, slightly overweight Emily would die if she had to talk dirty face-to-face-especially to her hot cop boy friend. She sure didn't set out to do phone sex-she wanted to be a writer. But when her BFF framed her for plagiarism, she got in a tiny financial hole and saw this ad for "phone actresses"… Hey, it's not nearly as bad as it sounds. No pantyhose or pantsuits, no regular hours, you're your own boss, and lots of people to talk to. Guys, that is. But here's the odd thing-lots of them want to talk about more than Emily's imagined attributes; they start to think of her as the best friend they'll never have to meet. Next thing you know, one of her customers gets killed and Emily knows a lot more about it than she should. But she can't tell the nearest cop, who's also her own true love, because then he'll find out about her secret life. What's a phone kitten to do? Solve the murder herself, of course-because wouldn't it be a great story for the newspaper that wrongly fired her? It's her ticket back to her real life-if it doesn't get her killed. Views: 15

Chief Editor Alexandra “Lex” Martine is proud of her success. Her New York based website for multicultural women, thefiercest.com, just earned a spot on the Forbes top 100 websites for women. As an independent, biracial woman herself, Fierce is not just a hub for women of color; it’s a huge part of her identity--and a nice distraction from her floundering love life. But when her San Francisco-based parent company goes bankrupt and her website goes up for sale, her career and her life are turned upside down.
When Lex meets Evan Cain, she resolves to fight their instant sexual attraction; lust is not on the agenda. Handsome, whip smart, and sexy, Evan has important friends who are professional athletes and in the entertainment industry, connections that could save her website, but it’s hard to focus on work when he is stealing kisses, running his hands over her thighs, and making her want things she shouldn’t want with a perfect stranger.
Choosing work over play has been the theme of Lex’s career-driven life. But when it’s time for her to give Evan the boot, she discovers it’s not so easy, not even to guarantee the survival of the fiercest. Views: 15
