title: Sudden Heat
author: Guillone, Sedonia
description: Since an injury cut short his career as a champion martial artist, Hiru has lived a quiet dutiful life consumed mostly by his job and his ever-unsuccessful attempts to meet a woman. When his best friend and co-worker, Koji, finds love and happiness...with a man...and leaves the firm to pursue a new life, Hiru misses Koji so much he begins to suspect his difficulty with women is something other than he thought. There's only one way to find out - stay at the White Tiger, Tokyo's most luxurious love-hotel for gay men and be massaged, caressed and...more by Quan Chan, one of Koji's incredibly handsome fellow White Tigers. Quan Chan is still nursing a broken heart when he's asked to attend to Koji's friend Hiru. So he's completely unprepared for his sudden intense attraction to Hiru's boyish good looks and incredible brawny physique. Hiru is like a human supply of catnip to the White Tiger inside him and all Quan Chan wants to do is purr and rub up against him.
