Crystal Reed thought she had met the perfect man. Instead she finds herself entangled in a web of obsessive love and dark secrets, a world that has become tainted by deception and treachery.
An avid mystery reader, I thought I'd try writing a mystery, but as my daughters pointed out, it was more of a romance. (Mom, she noticed his brown eyes were flecked with hazel on page 10. It's a romance!) I realized that even when reading a mystery, I was captivated by the relationships between the characters – Faye Kellerman's Rina and Peter, Barbara Parker's Gail and Anthony, even Laurie R. King's Mary and Sherlock. Even in books without continuing relationships, I was still watching characters hook up more than paying attention to the crime—on the first read. Of course, this means I read almost every book twice; once for the relationship, once for the mystery.
