From Nine Naughty Novelist Erin Nicholas
My upcoming release, Just For Fun, definitely features some food. No surprise, as food is one of my favorite things. In the book, Morgan, our heroine, is a high-class, gourmet food type of girl. Now. But she grew up just like I did in a middle class home, with a working mom where we had typical family meals of lasagna (which was good), meatloaf (which wasn’t so good) and tuna casserole (which was, surprisingly, awesome). Morgan gets back to her roots when she meets Dooley (Doug) and his friends and family. In fact, the first time she meets his dad and best friend they make her chicken enchiladas. She brings over tuna casserole, the whole gang of friends shows up for lasagna one night… you get the idea.
But rather than give you any of those recipes, I decided to share one that’s a little... more fun! *G* Dooley and Morgan have a good time with a hot fudge sundae one night and while there are some fantastic hot fudge sauces out there (and really, how bad can hot fudge sauce possibly be?) my favorite was the homemade hot fudge sauce my grandma made. Now, I’m not sure how grandma would feel having her recipe linked to a fun, sexy, slightly naughty romance novel, but I’m sure she’d love to know that I was passing it around.
So here is my grandmother’s homemade hot fudge sauce (and thanks to my cousin for digging it out of her recipe box for me… I haven’t made it in a long time but now I’m not going to be able to resist!) Enjoy! :)

Just for Fun
The Bradfords, Book 4
It was a chance meeting, a spontaneous, hot moment, a
never-to-be-repeated encounter. So when the gorgeous redhead he knows only as
Sugar walks into the bar and heads straight for him, Doug "Dooley"
Miller knows he’s in trouble. But he’s sure not going to mind.
She needs a date to some swanky something-or-other. He’s a
fish-sticks-and-denim guy, but for a woman who's not afraid to get naughty in
an elevator, he can stand a couple days of smoked salmon and Armani.
Morgan James admits she doesn’t really know Doug, but she needs him to keep her
mind—and hands—off her ex. A man who, despite the fact he stole her ideas,
she's afraid could charm her into repeating her mistakes. Only Doug can make
her forget the weasel exists. Besides, it's just this one time.
What started as not even a one-night stand has Dooley
feeling things that he’s never felt before.
And that’s outside of the
bedroom. Don’t even get him started on
what’s happening between the sheets. Why
does he have a feeling that, as far as flings go, they’re doing something
wrong? Then again, if they’re falling in
love, they might just be getting that right.
Warning: Contains
a woman who knows what she wants, a man who knows what he doesn’t want, and a proposition that shows them both that they’ve
never really wanted anything like this before.

Shadows whisper and the words are deadly . . .
A small, friendly Colorado town, nestled in the breathtaking Rockies, cloaks a malevolence, an evil that stalks women. Jesslyn Black, a writer, is content living her now-single, childless life. If she keeps to herself, she can’t get hurt. Haunted by the past, Jesslyn never again wants to experience the soul-shredding pain of losing loved ones.
But a murder changes that.
Aiden Kinncaid is running from his own secret loss. As the CEO of Kinncaid Enterprises, he travels to this remote Colorado resort town to oversee the opening of the new Highland Hotel. Though he’s not interested in any kind of relationship, he finds himself drawn to this temperamental, brown-eyed beauty. And her rough-edged attitude is a challenge to him. But whether or not either sought a relationship—they’ve found one. Aiden wants to protect Jesslyn even if she claims she can take care of herself, and she finds she can’t stop thinking about Aiden, even when he annoys her. Will they get their second chance at love and life before the killer eliminates one problem he doesn’t need?
