Exactly how steamy is this story?

Yes, Denys and the Baroness are lovers, but you would never know it by the discreet way she describes him as her "friend". You could easily read this aloud to the Flanders kids and, even if they might not really know what's going on, they definitely will not be scandalized.
But if you want to watch Denys and Blixen get a little down-er and dirtier, watch the movie version of Out Of Africa. Meryl Street and Robert Redford are super romantic, and the movie has one of those great surging 1980s scores.
