But who can resist a woman named Candy? He wants to make love to her luscious lips, caress her smooth and creamy skin, and savour her mocha-coloured body. Only then will he get the dessert he's been waiting for - a taste of her sweet, hot centre...It isn't fair that one man should consume her thoughts the way Davis Strong does. But no man does it for her like this one. At night, alone in her bed, Candy dreams about her lover, lying beneath his rock hard body, naked and exposed, begging him to touch her, to taste her, to fill her. It's the ultimate sexual fantasy and Candy's ready for the real thing... Related Items:      see moreAverage Rating:
 Rating:  - Just Like CandyHe's successful, a single parent with a thriving company, and has no time for flighty women. Why he's unable to get "Candy" out of his mind is a mystery to Davis Strong. What adult woman calls herself Candy and wears clothing more appropriate for a teenager. Candy prides herself on her individualistic nature, she doesn't conform to society's expectations of how she should act, dress or behave. As a directory for a youth center she's always there for the parents and children of the center. When the father of one of her students comes to her for help with his bi-racial daughter she's more than willing to assist the man who's been the star of her steamy midnight dreams since she first laid eyes on him. Too bad he thinks she's all wrong for the center, for the girls she mentors and especially for him. As opposite as they are in nature, what they do have in common is their unstoppable chemistry, one that won't be ignored or denied. Davis and Candy together are a match made in explosive heaven and one that has a promise of something more if they let it. Sexy yet lackluster are the words I would use to describe Just like Candy, a tale about two opposing personality types who find a common thread in their combustible passion. In the throes of a crisis with his daughter, Davis is trying to fight his uncomfortable attraction to a woman who leaves him panting like a teenage boy with the onset of puberty. Candy is flashy and adventurous but with that also comes her experience and direction with the young children she works with. Unconventional is what I would call the couple Kimberly Kaye-Terry has created. The backdrop of the plot about Davis' past adds a slight depth to the storyline that outside of passion lacked any substantial storyline. I would really like to see this author raise the bar with her plots and create stories with more substance and not just fluff. Indy reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed Rating:  - Nice story.This is a nice read . This is the first book that I have read by this author and it was enjoyable . There were a few typographical errors and some plot points that were a bit thin it was a nice storyline. I will definately read more of her work. Rating:  - hot! hot! hot!Believe me when i say, when you start reading you wont want to put the book down because you gonna itch to know what happens next. Each page is as enticing as the first. Guaranteed to make you sad, happy, horny throughout the book. You won't regret it. Go fofor it Rating: - Sizzling Page TurnerKimberly Kaye Terry is a romance writer through and through. There was a definite romance between the hero and heroine that was believable. I cared about them and their struggles. And the level of the eroticism was perfect. I couldn't wait to get back to the story as I commuted to work. This was my first book by her, but I have to add her to my list. She did a good job. Rating: - defiant fivethe cover alone is worth the five stars but i liked the stuff between the covers too. i read romance to escape and to live vicariously through the characters. i would never have the guts to carry on the way Candy and her man did but if the man on the cover showed up at my house i'd bet i'd be tempted to. this book was a guilty, dirty pleasure of the best kind. |
Sales of semiconductors in November indicate that consumer products such as LCD (liquid crystal display) TVs, digital music players, and other devices sold well during the holidays, the Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA) said Monday.
November chip sales rose 2.3 percent year-on-year to $23.1 billion, the SIA said.
Unit demand has far outpaced last year. But falling chip prices have hurt industry revenue, the chip association said. For example, DRAM (dynamic RAM) bit shipments grew 25 percent in the three months through mid-December, but average selling prices have declined 20 percent over the same period.
The association also noted that rising energy prices and concerns about the sub-prime lending issue in the U.S. do not appear to have had a significant impact on consumer spending for the holidays, the SIA said. The group reiterated its forecast that worldwide semiconductor sales will reach a new record in 2007. But it will take a stronger than expected December selling season to reach the 3.8 percent growth goal the group had forecast earlier this year, the SIA said.
Investment banking firm Credit Suisse was not as optimistic as the SIA.
The November data was below normal seasonal trends, noted analyst John Pitzer, in a report on Monday. Even if December reaches its normal seasonal growth, 2007 industry revenue will only reach $255.7 billion, up 3.2 percent over last year. The growth percentage would fall short of the SIA's 3.8 percent target.
The slow November prompted Credit Suisse to lower its 2008 chip industry revenue forecast to 9.4 percent year-on-year growth, down from a previous target of 13 percent.
Critics and audiences didn't seem too happy with Back to the Future, Part II, the inventive, perhaps too clever sequel. Director Zemeckis and cast bent over backwards to add layers of time-travel complication, and while it surely exercises the brain it isn't necessarily funny in the same way that its predecessor was. It's well worth a visit, though, just to appreciate the imagination that went into it, particularly in a finale that has Marty watching his own actions from the first film. --Tom Keogh
Shot back-to-back with the second chapter in the trilogy, Back to the Future, Part III is less hectic than that film and has the same sweet spirit of the first, albeit in a whole new setting. This time, Marty ends up in the Old West of 1885, trying to prevent the death of mad scientist Christopher Lloyd at the hands of gunman Buford "Mad Dog" Tannen (Thomas F. Wilson, who had a recurring role as the bully Biff). Director Zemeckis successfully blends exciting special effects with the traditions of a Western and comes up with something original and fun. --Tom Keogh
