"An amusing romantic romp"
Though he has been to Las Vegas before on the rodeo
circuit, Saguaro Junction, Arizona rancher Noah Garfield
only returns for the wedding of an old rodeo friend. Being
in town makes Noah sadly contemplate on the state of his
relationships as all his friends have one woman in their
lives. He reflects back a decade to Keely Branscom posing
as the centerfold for Macho magazine when he sees her
entering a strip joint. Noah immediately assumes that
Keely is about to peel the flesh again. In actuality, Keely is a reporter for Attitudes
Magazine and does stories on sexual fantasies. Never
forgiving Noah for his rejection of her, she decides to let
him think the worst of her, not that stripping is a bad
occupation in Keely's mind. When he goes as far as
offering to save her from herself, she cannot resist
playing along with a man she has always loved, but feels
was born old, prim and proper. NOTORIOUS is an amusing romantic romp filled with
innuendo and plenty of heated scenes yet somhow the theme
never is buried under an avalanche of page after page of
sex. The jocular and blazing story line centers on
relationships that need to embrace differences rather than
scorn them so that everyone can win. Keely makes the tale
happen in a Holly Golightly kind of way that shows why this
new imprint chose Vicki Lewis Thompson to be the opening
act. Harriet Klausner
