Road Trip to Passion (Ellora's Cave)

Three passionate tales from faraway places will take you from exotic to erotic in just a few pages....

LANI AAMES

Statuesque

Lia Morgan longs to explore her friend Mac's rock-hard body, but she'll settle for spending her vacation helping him search for the elusive rock statue of Zamar, which legend says a virgin sacrifice will arouse. She doesn't exactly believe the story, but as they enter a dark cave, she's overcome with erotic visions...and a sense that she's been to this place before. Mac disappears without a trace, and the deeper she goes into the cavern alone, the more her body aches with desire. When she finally reaches the Chamber of Zamar, she discovers the love she always longed for — and unbelievable sex beyond imagining.

SAHARA KELLY

Anasazi Lassie

Nothing excites archaeology professor Midge Hayworth more than learning — and fantasizing — about ancient Native American cultures. Nothing except Professor Web Jones. With movie star looks and a chiseled body, he would never notice her, or so she thinks. But when he joins her research trip to the Tolikani Canyon, his interest isn't ancient cultures — it's Midge. Ever since Web observed one of her lectures, he gets hard just thinking about the seductive curves and soft skin beneath her practical button-ups. When he catches her late one night nakedly indulging in the pleasures of a waterfall, he decides it's time they indulged their most primal fantasies together.

VONNA HARPER

Night of the Cougar

Maka Bradshaw just wants a glimpse of the massive cougar her activist friend Cliff told her about. But when she reaches the forest where the wildcat roams, she learns the cougar mauled Cliff to death, and people in the nearby town aren't talking. Tocho, a tall, broad-shouldered man with long dark hair, is the most outspoken — and most mysterious. Like an animal on the hunt, Tocho sneaks up on Maka at the cabin where she's staying. She knows she should be scared, but his virile presence freezes her...and ignites a raw, feral passion inside. He's come to stake his claim — and to fulfill her carnal desires.

Born and raised in Great Britain, Sahara Kelly now makes her home in New England, appreciating the often-ironic symmetry of her life. Writing has always been a part of it, although being a wife and mother left her little free time until several years ago. With over three dozen novels now available at Ellora's Cave, Sahara has rediscovered the creative joy of telling her stories, crossing the genres of erotic romance from the past to the future and touching on just about everything in between. She firmly believes everyone should have fantasies and is thrilled to share hers with her readers. Under her "real" name, Vonna Harper has published more fiction than she can keep track of. These include category romances for the major players as well as the 'juicy' stuff. She also penned a series of well-received Native American historicals. One earned her finalist status in both the Women Writing the West Willa award and Pacific Northwest Booksellers Association. Before discovering romances, both erotic and otherwise, Vonna 'confessed' all kinds of nonsense for the confession magazines. When asked about erotica research, she insists, "Of course I've time-traveled to the ancient Everglades, infiltrated bondage strongholds, done wilderness search and rescue, and spent a night trapped in a workout gym with Mr. Universe. How can I possibly write about something I haven't experienced?"
