Heat Magnet

I can’t beat the heat.

I have two west-facing windows, about 6ft x 6ft each. Needless to say, a real heat conduit into the house, even with double pane windows.

With double pane windows I can’ t use anything that adheres to the glass. Can I use some kind of solar screen to block the direct sun, and if so, a light color or a darker color? There aren’t any grooves in which to place a screen frame of some kind. Is there an issue with radiant heat (like in attics)?
