Samantha comes from a long line of farmers. In her family, she’s something of an oddity. The land and the life of farming do not call to her as they do to her family. It is the newspaper business that thrives in her blood. Whilst her family do not understand her career or her vocation, they support her because they love her and want her to be happy. This does not stop her mother from nagging Samantha to produce grandchildren. Samantha does not have the time in her life for a man, let alone children, though she loves her nieces and nephews dearly. As sports editor for The Planet, the main newspaper in the town of Buffalo where she lives and works, Samantha is always on the go; it is not unusual for her to put in a sixty hour week, even with two assistants. But on her thirtieth birthday Samantha gives in to her body’s urges when she meets a man whom her body is instantly attracted to. The sex in the back of the limo is superb – but when she meets the mystery man again she finds out he is her new boss. Oh, dear. With Samantha’s rule of not to mix business and pleasure, is there any possibility that any type of relationship will develop between Samantha and Kurt? Or is the intense attraction between them doomed to be forever resisted?
Kurt has something to prove – to his father, that is. His father has a finger in every media pie and is well known for not taking fools gladly. Even his own son doesn’t get a free pass, so to speak. Kurt is determined to get a seat on the Board of Directors, but his father keeps refusing, informing Kurt he is irresponsible and only looking for a good time. This has some truth to it, as thus far Kurt has followed a motto of ‘it it feels good, do it’. But now Kurt’s determination means it has to be out with the old motto, and in with a new one. To get a seat on the Board of Directors, he is going to have to become responsible for his actions, keep his libido under control and make a success of The Planet, a newspaper his father has owned for going on three years. To do this, he has to turn The Planet into the cash cow his father expects it to be – which it currently isn’t. On his first night in town, however, he doesn’t exactly stick to his plan to control his libido. Instead, he picks up a gorgeous woman in an Athena Warrior outfit and has sex with her in the back seat of his limo. Granted, the sex was superb. But now he can’t get her off his mind, he has broken his plan to remain celibate and he is not into long term relationships. Then he finds out that his mystery lady is the sports editor at The Planet and has strong ideas about what is – and isn’t – acceptable in the workplace. But he has made up his mind. He is going to keep to his plan to turn The Planet into the cash cow his father wants it to be, whilst carrying on an affair with the luscious Ms Cruise – even though she is resistant to the very idea. With the sexual attraction between them close to boiling over every time they come into contact with one another, it won’t be hard to convince her to enter into a sexual relationship with him. But will either of them develop deeper feelings for one another? What will Samantha’s reaction be when she finds out about Kurt’s agenda for The Planet? Is there any chance at all that these two will enter into a long-lasting, loving relationship with all such a relationship entails?
Though this is the first story I have read by Ms Stilletto, it surely won’t be the last. I have thoroughly enjoyed Hot Off The Presses. Kurt is a man who is used to getting what he wants. Samantha is a professional career woman who has strong ideas about the rights and wrongs of one's behaviour, particularly in the workplace. Apart, they are two strong independent people; together, their chemistry sizzles. Hot Off The Presses is a steamy novel, with descriptive sex scenes, including an anal sex scene towards the end of the story. The characters are very well developed, both the main characters and also the other characters in the story. I loved the way the story centres on a newspaper. It seemed that Ms Stilletto had really done her homework; the technical knowledge about how a newspaper runs was all in the story, in terms that the reader can follow, even if they themselves have no experience of working for a newspaper. Brilliantly written, this is definitely a story you must read. I will soon voraciously consume more of Ms Stilletto’s tales and going on the quality of this one, I doubt I’ll be disappointed by any of them.
