Rosie Maxwell has a plan: move to New York, get her creative writing degree from NYU, become a bestselling romance writer. But that plan is derailed when she ends up in class with her archnemesis & ex-crush, Aiden Huntington, an obnoxious, surly, unreasonably gorgeous literary fiction writer who has no patience for romance – or for Rosie. Exhausted by Rosie & Aiden’s constant verbal sparring, their professor gives them an ultimatum: leave her class, or cowrite a novel that blends their respective genres. As Rosie & Aiden collaborate on their (accidentally steamy) novel, they try to put their differences aside. Could their manuscript-in-progress be just the outlet they need to confess their feelings – & explore their mutual attraction? But a potentially career-changing opportunity soon reignites the flames of their old rivalry. Rosie & Aiden’s once-in-a-lifetime love story is once again at risk of being shelved – unless they can find a way to end the book on their own terms... ...

People disappear at an alarming rate

The detection skills of Wexford, Burden & the other investigating officers of the Kingsmarkham Police Force are tested to the utmost to discover whether the murders are connected & to track down whoever is responsible.
