Becoming a book narrator was never my goal. But if your deep voice tempts romance listeners to swoon and throw their proverbial panties at you, plans change.

When an unexpected chain of events rockets my easy-going and chill life in a completely different direction, I tackle it like I do everything - with humor, wit, and a little bit of my "Hawk Weaver" charm.

That's not a hardship, though. It means establishing a friendship with erotic romance author, Donna Moreno. She's a game changer. In all the best ways.

As an over-30 single woman who writes erotica for a living, you would think I spend my days fighting off every handsome, dirty-mouthed billionaire in a 20-mile radius. I don't. Sure, I have a checklist for my ideal man who I write in my books. I just haven't found "the one" in the real world.

Todd Chimolski may not check all the boxes on my current list, but there's something to be said for a friend who makes you laugh and puts on a suit to make all your fantasies come true. Hearing him bring the words I've written to life is nothing short of an eargasm, and that's a box I didn't know I needed checked.

What happens when the woman who writes sexy romance and the man who narrates it build a friendship that quickly turns to more?
