A fresh and original new voice - and an unforgettable portrait of a steamy Brisbane summer...
A 'burban BrisVegas summer - too hot for cappuccinos at Temptations cafe bar, where Rosie is sick of serving stubbies to the workmen. Too hot for old slob the boss having a pervo squizz at her boobs. Too bloody hot for Scott, the guy who dumper her long-distance, to suddenly phone and start calling her 'babe'.
Rosie's mum says Scott is a man, and deep down all men are rotten, but what does she know? In some ways, Scott's always treated her like dirt and yet every time Rosie sees him she is gripped with a desire to get right inside him, deep in his blood.
Hollie can't stand Scott, but then she's been acting weird since her brother got out of jail. At least Rosie can rely on Trish, whether it's smoking joints in their work breaks or scoring a pill for a rave.
Through it all, Rosie tries to stay in control, but the lure of darkness is only just under the surface...
