Present Day

 

Cairo Ivory is constantly reminded by her friends that she needs to get out and date more.  As an attorney who has recently been encumbered by an enormous amount of divorce cases, Cairo is skeptical about true love.  Her friends insist that she has her nitpick on high and should just relax, let loose, and at least have a fling.  She may get more than that when she meets Jose.

 

Jose Sanchez, a co-worker at the hospital where Cairo’s friend, Lavita, works, is a woman’s wet dream.  Lavita can’t tell her exactly what he does, but insists the gorgeous Spanish man is sincere and very nice.  When Cairo and Jose do get the chance to go out on an official date, the fireworks fly, and Cairo learns just how sexy salsa dancing can be. 

 

Things take a turn at work and instead of seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, Cairo is asked to take on more divorce cases, one of which involves the richly infamous attorney, Kimberly Davies.  It doesn’t get any better when Cairo’s boss is murdered and detectives start circling the office.  With all that is going on right now, it seems impossible for Cairo to catch a break, but she fondly remembers her nights spent with Jose.

 

It doesn’t sound like Cairo is ever going to get lucky, right?  But you’d be surprised, just as she is, when she finally does more than salsa dancing with Jose.  It’s hard to believe that there are any good men left, but Jose may very well be the last of them.  Cairo has the opportunity to teach him that sex is more than giving only the woman pleasure.  It was a little bit hard to believe that Jose is as inexperienced as he is portrayed in THE SUN ROSE OVER CAIRO, but his past exploits in the bedroom left a lot to be desired and it’s a result of his defunct marriage.  Cairo becomes the teacher in the sack, but she has a lot to learn also when lust turns to love – who’d have thought that could still happen? 

 

A little bit predictable, THE SUN ROSE OVER CAIRO is still an erotic romance that sparkles.  It’s a refreshing change of pace to see the hero become the student, but Jose is very willing to learn everything he can from Cairo. 

 

See what’s in store for Cairo and Jose in THE SUN ROSE OVER CAIRO from Ocean’s Mist Press.
