Editorial Reviews

In Haas's latest (after Matched with Murder), artist Olivia Hickman is devastated to find a murdered woman at the loft she rents out to guests in order to make ends meet. Though detective Jack Stone is initially suspicious of the attractive young widow, a series of violent events soon have him wondering if Olivia herself is the target of a disturbed individual. Can Jack keep Olivia safe and catch the killer, or will his own attraction to her prove a deadly distraction? VERDICT Ultimately, this stand-alone romantic suspense story winds up being fairly forgettable. The speed with which Jack goes from suspicion of to fascination with Olivia strains credulity, and though readers may initially be drawn into the mystery, the final reveal of an almost cartoonish villain fails to satisfy in the end.—Rebecca Moe
