I ended up liking many things in this story... and not liking others.

Heroine - Nicola was a historical romance author who seemed to be more comfortable with fiction than reality. In a current situation, she would find ways to fictionalize it for the reader and I skimmed most of it because I'm still not sure what was supposed to be gained by this. She's decided that she wants to do a contemporary romance and then when she realizes a serial killer is targeting women in her area, she figures she should find a way to incorporate him in her book. The cop she meets, Dallas, who ends up being the hero of this story, ends up in her book. The FBI agent hunting killers... in the book. And let's not forget the crazy scenario of her and her friends creating a fake profile on POF and a BDSM website to taunt a man. With a serial killer on the loose! Clearly, Nicola wasn't the brightest crayon in the box.

I enjoyed most of how this story was written, except for the repetitive bits and Nicola's nonsense. I admired the way the author described and illustrated Nicola's friendships and her relationship with her family. I enjoyed most of what Dallas had to offer, except when he had to put up with Nicola's nonsene. I even liked the suspenseful element because of how entertaining it was. I may not have loved this particular story as much as I thought I would, but I have loved other books by this author and I'll definitely be giving her another try.
