Hot Like Fire -- The Taming and Liberation of Mariana by Jeanie Johnson & Jayha Leigh

Hot Like Fire is a mix of tradition and innovation. Tradition cause it's the story of our everyday woman, strong and interesting, but not overwhelming beautiful, who finds the perfect man who will love her forever and will treat her like a goddess. Innovation cause it's pretty hot and erotic and sex is very good but it's also almost hard-core.

Samson and Mariana meets in a dream resort, and from the first time he sees her, Samson knows to have found the woman of his life. He only has to convince Mariana of the same thing, and overcome the fear she has of not being enough "woman" to satisfy her man.

Samson, our hero, maybe is not a man you can find in real life, cause he is too perfect. He is rich and hansome, 6 feet and 9 inches tall, long black hair, father from Portugal and Native American mother, he can see past the phisycal appearance of a woman to her soul. And he is also so sure of himself, that he doesn't fear to display his alpha behaviour.

Mariana is a woman who needs to be loved and needs reassureance on her feminine side. She is a tought woman, but she needs an even tougher man to her side. Mariana is like a lot of modern woman, who wants to be independent, but who also likes to have a Man, with M capital letter, who is not afraid to stay with a woman like her.

Sex is very hot. I'd like to think possible to ever find a such intimacy, but if maybe it's difficult to find in real life, it's good to be able to read it in a book. I have no problem to say that Hot Like Fire has touched so many soft spots in me, cause it talks truth to many women like me.
