Synopsis

“Hot Box” is a baseball drill that can be played with three or more players and two to four bases. The players take turns being fielders and runners, ultimately trying to tag the rest of the players out. In The Hot Box, best friends Milena and Lydia are playing the game with Jacour, Yosef, Glenn, and Phil. The only problem: the men do not realize that they are playing. Milena lives a sheltered and dismal existence and has not allowed a man to touch her body in eight years . . . until now. Lydia dreams of getting away from small-town America but, until she can make that happen, she is prepared to do whatever it takes to continue to have her bills paid . . . on time. Good sex always does the trick. Two women. Four men. Two love triangles. Reading has never been this hot because, once again, Zane is taking you outside the box.

Reviews

Zane is known for her steamy tales about African American women seeking love and sexual fulfillment, and her latest certainly fits the bill. Best friends Lydia and Milena are each involved with two men. Lydia has been in a stable relationship with Glenn for three years, but she can’t keep her hands off his best friend, Phil. Milena has eschewed romantic entanglements of any kind ever since she left her fiancé, baseball star Jacour, at the altar eight years ago after discovering he cheated on her at his bachelor party. Now Jacour has returned to the small town of Kannapolis, North Carolina, intent on winning Milena back. Determined to fight her feelings for him, Milena invents a boyfriend and finds an attractive homeless man, Yosef, to play the part. After cleaning Yosef up and learning of the sad circumstances that left him destitute, Milena finds herself falling for him—even as she’s battling her feelings for Jacour. Zane keeps her readers on their toes with some unexpected twists in this appealing and scintillating tale. --Kristine Huntley
