When long-time acquaintances Stephen Lemont and Jennifer Wartner end up in bed following a wedding, both are surprised and delighted at the heated desire ignited during their encounter. In the cold light of the morning after, however, practicality reigns over lust, and they decide a full-time relationship with one another is not in either of their best interests.
But when both return to Chicago, they realize the erotic magnetism they have for one another is too strong to ignore, and decide to give a relationship serious consideration.
Then Stephen, a high-profile director, is unjustly slapped with a sexual harassment lawsuit by an angry actress, placing Jennifer in a terrible quandary. As a managing editor for one of Chicago's daily newspapers, she's torn between protecting Stephen from the highly competitive media, and sacrificing her growing physical and emotional attraction to Stephen to protect her job and the credibility of her newspaper.
With Mixed Media, Erica DeQuaya returns to the world of her very first book, Backstage Affair, to describe a story of a woman's struggle with ethics, integrity and conscience in the face of accusations against the man she has come to love.
