The Man In The Moonlight

(download)

An unusual heart-warming story set against the mystery and beauty of the Virgin Islands

From the back:

The excitement and beauty of the Virgin Islands held no interest for the three lonely women who were waiting for the divorces to finalize:

Cynthia, the most beautiful of the three, was bored with her corporation-lawyer husband

Francette had simply grown tired of her charming but spineless mate

Evelyn, disillusioned by her brief marriage, had retreated into the shell she had built around herself.

When a blond stranger named Martin Jardine appears, seemingly from nowhere, the magic and mystery of the islands is rekindled. Each woman in turn reveals to him her deepest and most intimate secrets. For each he has an answer, but only to one will he reveal the full truth about himself . . .

Jungle Heat (1960)

(download)

The electrifying love affair of a Malayan planter and a Hollywood actress -- bold, passionate, uninhibited

From the back:

He ordered her out of his bedroom, but she wasn't ready to go. Drunkenly she turned toward him and began to sway sinuously. The next thing she felt was his fist across her face -- and then his arms pulling her to his body.

Eager for front-page publicity, Roxy Powell accepted a movie deal in a ravaged land ruled by a man she swore to hate. But in the heat of the jungle she came to him -- and acknowledged the urgency of her desire.

Written by Robert Wade and Bill Miller, this book was originally published under the name Dale Wilmer. This printing appears under Wade & Miller's more usual pseudonym of Wade Miller
