The next morning, Erika's body is sated from pleasure. Rigo obtains a promise she'll call him and tells her that if she doesn't, he'll find her. She's intrigued and thrilled with his obvious interest until she discovers Rigo is the head of the company her brother wants the family to partner with, so she doesn't contact him. A month passes.

Can the red stilettos live up to their legend to provide the wearer with her heart's desire?

No-nonsense, thirty-nine-year-old Lexie Burns pens an advice column-Letters to Sexy Lexie-that delivers common sense with a dose of humor and a verbal slap upside the head. Tyler Black, a younger, drop-dead gorgeous cop, has had it with empty-headed, superficial women. In Lexie, he sees the kind of intelligent woman with whom he could build a solid relationship-if he can convince her to acknowledge his existence. With the help of some magical stilettos, Tyler might get his woman...and Lexie might get a desperately needed slap upside the libido. Bad, Bad Girlfriend by Delilah Devlin Book Four in the Red Stilettos series. Expect magic when one determined woman dons a legendary pair of red stilettos and bares body and heart to get her man's attention... Jolene's a big, beautiful woman with an even bigger heart. But she's become her police officer boyfriend's favorite doormat and that's so not working for her. It's time for a little conversation, time to tell Mr. Happy Pants to "pee or get off the pot". Gabriel has seen what his profession does to marriages. He's not willing to risk that kind of heartbreak. Besides, he likes what he has with Jolene. The woman is sex personified. So when Jolie tells him she won't see him anymore if he's not willing to commit, he's shocked and angry. With a girlfriend's encouragement and the added confidence a certain pair of red stilettos gives her, Jolene arranges a special show at a strip club to prove to Gabe once and for all that she's more woman than any man can handle, and if he doesn't want the job, then she'll find another lover who does.
