Swept Away
Colton Barrett is suave, sophisticated and leaves the ladies panting in his wake but his seductive persona is a cover for the pain he’s suffered since the death of his beloved wife. The women who have since paraded through Colton’s life have warmed his bed but not his heart until he meets the vivacious Vidalia. Their one night stand becomes complicated when he discovers she's his new boss but rather than dealing with a clingy, hysterical woman, Lali is aloof. The trouble is, the more professional she is the more Colton wants to tear her clothes off and make her melt in his arms but is it the allure of the challenge that’s making him crazy or is he actually falling in love?
Peyton’s Place has become Lali Rivera’s entire world. So much so that her social life is non-existent until she’s convinced to let loose one night and throw caution to the wind. But when a sultry liaison turns out to be her newly arrived chocolatier, Lali decides maintaining a businesslike demeanor is the only way for her to save her professional face. Yet, taking the fact that Colton is a reputed casanova into consideration only does so much to keep her sane when all she can think about is drizzling his delectable body with chocolate and devouring him.
Religious fervor embraces the people as a native goddess is believed to have returned to San Sebastian but when a staff member elopes with the girl, strange things start happening at Peyton's Place and the hotel is rumored to be cursed. Are supernatural forces or a charlatan at work and can Lali and Colton do anything to do stop it?
