Summary: Scintillating and seductive -- Very highly recommended
Review: Cryptologist Edison Lone's always has been more interested in what people don't say than what they do. He's been following classified ads that someone uses to make contact and sell information from the IBI. Before he can take his suspicions to the CIIC, Edison's reassigned to investigate Selena Silverwood. Surveillance cameras have recorded her working on a personal diary during work hours, leading to the possibility that she's encoding secrets into her prose, and then selling that information. Despite the attraction between them, Edison would never allow himself to fall for a traitor.

The contrast between Selena's outward shyness and her inward heated fantasies haunts Edison. When he invites her to dinner and she transforms from ugly duckling to stunning siren, Edison's hooked. He can't help wondering if she's ready to make her fantasies a reality. For a man who loves puzzles and secretive communications, reading Selena's fantasies provides the most stimulating puzzle he's ever had. The question remains if they can learn to share more than just night pleasures.

Fantasy rules the night in NIGHT PLEASURES by Jule McBride. This sensual romance makes the pages sizzle with its erotic delights. The characterizations are complex with a constant question as to loyalties. Further, the underlying plot of selling information lends the novel fascinating intrigue, keeping the tempo quick as new information is revealed. Moreover, the deft interweaving of the fantasy and reality through excerpts from the diary proves to be quite titillating. Scintillating and seductive, NIGHT PLEASURES comes very highly recommended.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: enticing romantic suspense
Review: Edison Lone, DC's best code breaker, wonders if he should talk to the Center for International Information Control though he lacks evidence. Edison knows that someone is leaking sensitive information from the Internal Bureau of Information (IBI). However, he is set up to think it is IBI assistant Selena Silverwood, whose diary contains heated fantasies he believes hide a code that to his chagrin he cannot break.

The reason he cannot break her code is that there are no secret messages to decipher. Instead Selena is writing a novel using the office computer. Edison, who is already falling in love with her based on her passionate secrets, courts her to obtain her code. As Selena and Edison begin to forge a permanent relationship, there remain those individuals illegally releasing information and whose preference is to eliminate Edison anyway possible so they can freely leave the country when the time is right.

NIGHT PLEASURES is an enticing romantic suspense loaded with action but emphasizes the sexual tension between the lead characters that heat up the novel's pages. Edison and Selena are an ardent duet whose fervent desires burn through the plot of going undercover to find the information leak. The audience might question Edison's skills that he misreads Selena so badly in spite of the mole that sends him down the wrong path. Readers still will find NIGHT PLEASURES lives up to its title as Jule McBride purveys a fervid romantic suspense.
