First Line: "The lilting strains of thrash metal crashed through my skull and I sat bolt upright in bed, clutching my ears."

This is the first Davidson book that I have read and I was thoroughly enchanted. Somehow, she made a romance featuring the three personalities of a woman suffering from Multiple Personality Disorder work well. I think listening to this book really helped me build the three distinct personalities into fleshed-out characters as the narrator did a beautiful job of altering her tone to match them. There is Candace, a social and too-sweet woman who never cusses, is a virgin, and is a whiz at compiling data and solving puzzles. Shiro, my personal favorite, is a master of various forms of martial arts and is tough enough to handle all the uncomfortable truths that Candace cannot face. Finally, there is Adrianne, who everyone dreads because she is a violent party girl who acts completely for her own pleasure. Together, they work for a special unit of the FBI that employees people with various mental disorders and they are hunting a serial killer who always kills in threes. I loved all three women and they are the reason I enjoyed the story. Candace's love interest was only so-so, as I often felt that a man who would knowingly date someone with MPD was either crazy or had a weird fetish and he never really proved me wrong. Still, the various romantic scenes when one of Candace's other personalities make an appearance were always hilariously entertaining. If you are in the mood for something a little different, give this one a try.
