"Readers will find this book quite tempting."

Adam Morely tells his best friend Lauren Bryant he needs a wife because he is tired of the lack of passion sex with endless babes brings. He wants to share home cooked meals and to raise a family. Since he always asks Lauren for advice before impetuously plunging into something, he does so again. She says romance his intended.

Lauren begins receiving romantic gifts from a secret admirer. When her friends, work associates, and mother tell her it is Adam, she begins to believe and wonder if she should risk their friendship since they were Roswell, Georgia neighbors as kids. Soon, Adam and Lauren take the next step beyond friendship as they fall in passionate love beyond that of "buddydom". However, how will she react when she learns he is not her secret admirer?

Readers will find TEMPTING ADAM quite tempting and enticing as the lead couple makes a delightful duo in denial. The story line will remind the audience of the Bonnie Raitt tune, Something To Talk About as everyone else recognizes that Lauren and Adam love each other except the lead duet. Fans of sensual heated romances will relish Dorie Graham's engaging story.
