If you want a little slashing with smut, look no further!' ★★★★★ Scarlett Moore doesn't do romance. She's made a name for herself narrating gritty crime fiction on a local podcast. But when her boss hands her the reins to the network's romance show, Scarlett finds herself neck-deep in swoony love stories on top of her usual murder plots. Then someone begins reenacting the chilling crimes she discusses on air, down to the last twisted detail. Determined to protect her small town, Scarlett launches her own investigation. But the line between reality and fiction blurs even more when Rafael Gray - the brooding bad boy who disappeared five years ago - unexpectedly returns. Suddenly, her life reads like a romance novel filled with every trope she used to mock, with Rafael playing the dangerously irresistible lead. He's perfect in every way . . . except last time, he broke her heart, and now he's the prime suspect in the string of brutal murders.
