Captivating and Steamy
Love at the Evening Ball follows a refined Southern gentleman who spots an enchanting woman across the ballroom floor, igniting a spark of chemistry that quickly blossoms into passionate flames. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story?
The setup was inspired by the history of my family and hometown. Being from Shreveport, our family once owned and worked on a plantation, described as the one that is brought to life in Love at the Evening Ball.
What were some of the emotional and moral guidelines you followed when developing your characters?
I wanted to make this captivating and steamy. I wanted to do it in such a way as to create excitement in the reader, but not so graphic as to push away.
What draws you to the Southern culture and makes it ripe for you to write such a great erotic romance story in it?
I was born, raised in, and now live in the “deep” South. My ancestors were a mix of both enslaver and enslaved, with relationships that defy the mainstream norm. Terry’s outfit carried hints of the Confederate Gray, while Hiyeon’s ball dress would be typical of Southern belles of the era.
What is the next book that you are working on, and when can your fans expect it to be out?
I am currently working on a biography of a 3rd great-grandfather of mine. He is a Civil War Veteran. I have already published one similar on a 3rd great-grandfather. While history is my genre, I may author another title in a Steamy Southern Nights series, as I enjoyed jumping into a new genre and writing Love at the Evening Ball!

Love at the Evening Ball
Tony T. Williams’ Love at the Evening Ball is a heady mix of Southern gothic charm and unapologetic erotic fantasy. It begins with the grandeur of an old plantation house, bathed in moonlight and memory, before sweeping the reader into a whirlwind of romance and desire. What starts as an elegant evening gathering quickly turns into an intimate story of two strangers who find themselves caught in the heat of attraction, surrendering to passion with abandon. The setting is rich, the atmosphere lush, and the story wastes no time in plunging into the intensity of seduction.
The heart of the story rests on Terry and Hiyeon. Terry comes across as confident and deeply passionate, a man who knows what he wants and isn’t shy about showing it. Hiyeon, on the other hand, radiates playfulness and charm, mixing sweetness with a daring streak that makes her irresistible. When they come together, the chemistry is undeniable. Their relationship is a whirlwind of flirtation, teasing, and raw attraction, and it’s this dynamic that fuels the book’s energy and keeps the reader hooked.
The writing is bold in a way that instantly grabs attention. The dialogue between Terry and Hiyeon brims with playful energy, sometimes exaggerated, yet always filled with a reckless joy that lights up the page. The descriptive detail, especially in the more intimate scenes, is immersive and unrelenting, sweeping me into the moment so completely that I couldn’t look away. The intensity left little room to pause, yet that constant surge of energy kept me hooked, daring me to keep turning pages with anticipation.
There were also moments where I found myself smiling at the sheer audacity of it all. The way the author leaned into every sigh, every shiver, every whispered word made the story feel like it knew exactly what it wanted to be. No pretense, no hesitation, just raw desire painted across the page. I felt caught between being swept away and slightly overwhelmed, but that tension was its own kind of thrill. It reminded me that reading, like love, isn’t always neat or tidy. Sometimes it’s messy, wild, and unforgettable.
Love at the Evening Ball isn’t a book for the faint of heart. It’s for readers who crave romance with a heavy dose of heat, for those who want their stories draped in silk and sweat rather than subtlety. If you enjoy tales that are unabashedly sensual, where every touch and glance is amplified to a fever pitch, this book will deliver. It’s daring, it’s steamy, and it knows exactly who it’s written for.
