>Linda’s been raising the question: What is hot & sexy?

Good question.

To me, hot & sexy romance is the slow burn. It can hit fast, or begin after years of friendship but it endures. But it’s the build up or continual heat between two individuals falling in love. Not “Ride me, Cowboy!” or “Gee, she’s hot. I think I’ll have her for desert.” but the attraction that can’t be denied. The chemistry builds, yes, but hot & sexy is also the emotional investment that really bring the couple together. The couple have to find common ground, have a mutual respect for each other and be emotionally invested in the relationship.

Hot & sexy isn’t just sex. It’s the whole romance.
