The Red-Hot Cajun
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
The long, hot Louisiana summer just got hotter for Rene LeDeux. He returns home to southern Louisiana after quitting his job in Washington as an environmental lobbyist. Years of battling with the oil industry and land developers have left him completely burnt out, and now all he wants to do is work on his cabin on Bayou Black. But his peace of mind is disrupted by a few things.
One, his great-aunt Tante Lulu is determined to get him hitched. Two, a couple of his activist friends have hatched a plot to bring national attention to their cause to save the bayou. They've kidnapped a TV celebrity and brought her to Rene's cabin. And three, the celebrity is none other than Valerie "Ice" Breux, Rene's nemesis while growing up.
Now Val's stranded in Rene's remote cabin, besieged by irrepressible LeDeux relations, not to mention a dingbat duo out to save the swamp. It's bad enough being kidnapped, but did she have to land in the lap of the most irritating, sexiest hunk she's ever laid her eyes on? Val vows she'll give her heart to the Cajun bad boy when alligators fly. Rene swears to get the girl who got away.
It's never been steamier in the bayou than with two people this red-hot with desire...and more than ready for love.

- bioText:
Humor (and sizzle) are the trademarks of Sandra Hill novels, all fifty or so of them, whether they be about Cajuns, Vikings, Navy SEALs, treasure hunters, or a combination of these. Readers especially love her notorious Tante Lulu, the bayou matchmaker/folk healer, and often write to say they have a family member just like hero — or wish they did. Growing up in a small town in Pennsylvania, Sandra says she was quiet and shy, no funny bone at all, but she was forced to develop a sense of humor as a survival skill later in her all-male household: a husband, four sons, and a male German shepherd the size of a horse. Add to that mix now a male black lab, two grandsons — a rock musician and an extreme athlete — and a stunning granddaughter, who is both gifted and a gift, and you can see why Sandra wishes all her fans smiles in their reading.

- The fourth book in Sandra Hill's Cajun series serves up laugh-out-loud humor and sizzling romance in equal portions.
The long, hot Louisiana summer just got hotter for Rene LeDeux. He returns home to southern Louisiana after quitting his job in Washington as an environmental lobbyist. Years of battling with the oil industry and land developers have left him completely burnt out, and now all he wants to do is work on his cabin on Bayou Black. But his peace of mind is disrupted by a few things.
One, his great-aunt Tante Lulu is determined to get him hitched. Two, a couple of his activist friends have hatched a plot to bring national attention to their cause to save the bayou. They've kidnapped a TV celebrity and brought her to Rene's cabin. And three, the celebrity is none other than Valerie "Ice" Breux, Rene's nemesis while growing up.
Now Val's stranded in Rene's remote cabin, besieged by irrepressible LeDeux relations, not to mention a dingbat duo out to save the swamp. It's bad enough being kidnapped, but did she have to land in the lap of the most irritating, sexiest hunk she's ever laid her eyes on? Val vows she'll give her heart to the Cajun bad boy when alligators fly. Rene swears to get the girl who got away.

Burned out as a Washington, D.C., environmental lobbyist, René LeDeux retreats to his remote Louisiana Bayou Black cabin to regroup at the start of Hill's spicy conclusion to her Cajun Bad Boy series (Tall Dark and Cajun
, etc.). In temporary residence is Tante Lulu, René's 79-year-old matchmaking great-aunt, who's in her usual rare form, planting plastic St. Jude statues all over the place, stitching up bridal quilts for those wild Cajun nephews of hers and waiting for the "love thunderbolt" to strike. When a couple of René's eccentric "tree-hugging" pals kidnap TV anchorwoman Valerie Breaux and abandon her on René's doorstep, Tante Lulu figures her prayers have been answered. Not René; the last thing he wants is a woman in his world, especially Val, with whom he shared an embarrassing high school sexual disaster. Ditto for Val. Recently canned for refusing to spice up her news stories with tabloid-style segments, she just wants to get back and raise hell about her dismissal. But Tante Lulu (and St. Jude) have other ideas. While the ending is a little overdone, Hill's thigh-slapping humor and thoughtful look at the endangered Louisiana bayou ecosystem turn this into an engaging read.

A former environmental lobbyist has his Bayou life thrown into chaos when his ecoactivist friends kidnap a TV personality (who turns out to be his high school crush), and he's left to sort it all out. Serious social and environmental issues are balanced by his Tante Lulu's determined matchmaking and Hill's sassy humor. This fan favorite was first published by Warner Forever in 2005.

As Hill goes Cajun once again, as in " The Cajun Cowboy " [BKL Je 1 & 15 04], all Rene LeDeux wants is a little peace in the sanctuary of Louisiana's Bayou Black after his stint as an environmental lobbyist in Washington, D.C., losing battle after battle to big businesses and interest groups who couldn't care less about the planet. But instead he must fight an even bigger battle: his tree-hugging activist friends have kidnapped " Trial TV" celebrity Valerie "Ice" Breaux and brought her to Bayou Black to get media attention for their cause. To make matters worse, Rene, a Cajun, and Valerie, a Creole, share an antagonistic past. Hill has put more of everything in this book--more hot sex, a more serious subtext (both Rene and Valerie were abused as children), and a lot more information on bayou ecology and the effects of a changing environment--adding up to a brimming romance for people who like to laugh, people who like to cry, and people who are concerned with the current status of the earth.
