At the end of three long years in the penitentiary, movie star Brandon Carlyle's bad boy career is on the skids. He seeks sanctuary with his beloved aunt and uncle, who live in the tiny, eccentric town of Ticky Creek, Texas. But there's nothing about Ticky Creek that's truly peaceful. The local corrupt sheriff, who put him away the first time, is going for him again; the sheriff's horny sister is going for him, too. What's more, a crazed anonymous fan has been writing him a series of threatening letters that could mean harm for him and his family. As the stalker closes in, beautiful tabloid journalist Alyson James appears; she seems like the right woman for Carlyle, but could she be the stalker… (altro)
Weak writing, superficial and shallow characters, walking cliches, predictability, misogyny, homophobia and SEVERE transphobia. I think Sutherland likes the horror movies "Psycho" and the Buffalo Bill one. She used some of those plot points in her story and clearly thinks she's sure clever. What a hateful plot device. Romantic suspense books with two straight, opposite sex leads clearly are not my thing. I loathe Enemies to Lovers, too, which this book is. There was absolutely no reason for this book to be nearly four hundred pages. NOTHING HAPPENS. This story could have been told in a hundred and fifty pages, tops. I'll generously note it could have been told in two hundred pages since Sutherland is so in love with her own words and each and every character she included, whose viewpoints she keeps wildly vacillating between. Please do not waste your time on this. ( )

Darkling I listen; and, for many a time I have been half in love with easeful Death, Call'd him soft names in many a mused rhyme, To take into the air my quiet breath; Now more than ever seems it rich to die, To cease upon the midnight with no pain, While thou art pouring forth thy soul abroad In such an ecstasy! John Keats—"Ode to a Nightingale'
