While that is a very accurate description of the hot blooded central characters in this contemporary suspense romance, it doesn't tell you much about what is actually a good mystery/suspense novel revolving around stolen world-famous artwork by Vincent Van Gogh. The novel begins with intrepid art professor and real life Indiana Jones  adventurer Duncan Forbes  staring up the skirt of the hottest woman he's ever seen in a library, librarian Alexandra Forrest. His ogling irritates the very hot Alex who is very serious about her small-town library, but doesn 't see why she can't dress up in sexy clothes in a town too small to have any really interesting men to flirt with.The two skirmish over the efforts of Forbes,the hunky biker because he travels by motorcyle, to track down the missing Van Gogh as part of his on-going career tracking down missing masterworks and returning  them to their legiimate owners. The growing attraction between Duncan and Alex, who hasn't been around a man that appeals to her in a LONG time,  is temporarily sidetracked as bodies begin to appear, murder weapons pop up where they shouldn't be, and Duncan keeps secrets he thinks he should conceal from Alex for her own safety and to help him track down the Van Gogh. As much as she turns him on, he is in town on business.There's an entertaining plot involving organized crime, black market art, and the mystery of who is REALLY trying to find the artwork to sell it and is willing to kill Alex and her sister to get ahold of it. And in the middle of all this, there's the drama of Alex trying to reconnect with her screw-up sister Gillian who is a drug user and an ex-con married to a complete loser who is coming back into her life. And not to forget, there's the small-town Sheriff who had a thing for Gillian once upon a time before drugs and prison and her loser husband got in the way.This is a fast moving novel with a decent mystery at its heart, two budding romances, murder and mayhem. And two appealing central characters and two minor backup characters who could support their own novel. If you like romance, mysteries and VERY, VERY hot lady librarians, this is a good book to buy.
