Seeking out her son's cure leads Dexter and Elaina to the steamy African jungle, where Elaina discovers a wilder side of Dexter she never knew existed and Dexter discovers Elaina is only too eager to steam up his sheets again and again. Their jungle loving can't last forever…Dexter knows returning to the States and his geeky ways will mean the end of their affair. Elaina is hot for the wild man version of him alone…or is she?
