Readers looking for a way to get rid of those winter chills will find lots of heat from this super steamy anthology featuring two stories set in the rugged world of cowboys.  Back in the Saddle reunites old friends who were always attracted to each other but are now free to finally act on those feelings.  Molly has been left with low self-esteem courtesy of a cheating ex-husband which has her questioning her desirability.  She needn't worry though as the strong and commanding Chance shows her through numerous BDSM-lite scenes.  Chance is happy to have a woman fully accepting of his desires and goes out of his way to draw her into his erotic play.  These sexual interludes take up most of the story leaving a little room for emotional connection.In Eight Second Ride an arrogant yet charming bull rider Kyle finds himself attracted to the strong-willed female sheriff Jessie.  Jessie is used to being in control both in and out of the bedroom which wins Kyle over and gives him thoughts of long-term if he can just show Jessie that it's okay to give up control and take a chance on the unknown.  Again there's numerous erotic scenes with a bit of BDSM play but we also get to see them interact as a couple in the outside world which made for a more satisfying story.Both stories are a delightfully steamy way to spend an afternoon and I enjoyed their fantasy feel.  The men were dominate and the women happy to have their dreams fulfilled and it's left me wanting to read more from Ms. Holt.
