    About this ebook

    A dark killer haunts the streets of Los Angeles, stalking unwilling victims and draining their blood. When the evidence runs dry, Detective Max Bowman quenches his thirst at his local bar hoping for inspiration. Instead, he’s robbed and left for dead in the alley. Waking up in the warm bed of horror novelist Carter Gray was the last thing he expected, but it may be the lead he needs. For Carter hides a dangerous secret behind his life as a bestselling author and it might be the answer, no matter how unbelievable, Max has been looking for.

    But as they search for the killer, Max begins to wonder if he’s being led in circles by a mastermind of plot twists and deception.

    Lisa Worrall

    I live in Leigh on Sea, a small seaside town just outside London on the coast of Essex, about ten minutes from Southend, which boasts the longest pier in the world. I live with my partner and two ever-growing children, who I let think are the boss of me; along with a dog who actually is. As the wonderful Beatrix Potter said, "There is something delicious about writing the first words of a new story. You never quite know where they'll take you." I know exactly what she means and hope you'll join me for the ride.

      other than the rather large plot hole (the various missing persons Carter's buried all these years, not having been that selective in partners), and the obvious identity of the villain, i still really liked this. liked Max and Carter together. shame about Alex.
    • 4/5
      4 stars. I really enjoyed this! To warn some hardcore m/m fans, yes, there is a m/f scene and the main characters have sex with other people before they get together.

      Usually that would turn me off on a book, but I really enjoy this author's writing and really glad I bought this. I liked that it wasn't a case of 'insta-love', but them both fighting the feelings for the other. And I would love to read more about Lyle and Richie. :)

      (and that cover is gorgeous!)
