torridly

In sweltering fashion

Torridly means in an intensely hot or passionate manner.

The word describes both physical heat—the sun beat down torridly—and emotional or sexual intensity: They kissed torridly in the doorway.

The passionate sense dominates modern usage, often appearing in descriptions of romance novels or melodramatic scenes.
