This was one of the first books I've read that is written in the first person. I enjoyed the story. ( )

rabck from MissCyn, NOT a romance novel like this author usually writes. Told in alternating chapters between Ford, the bestselling author who hasn't written anything of substance since his wife/agent died 6 years ago, and Jackie, a university researcher who's devil story of her hometown intrigues Ford. So, he hires her as an assistant, buys a falling town house in that town and sets off to find out more about the Devil story. What is fact and what is fiction? ( )

I loved this book! The story was great and unexpected. The main characters were easy to fall in love with. The side characters were wonderfully quirky. There was lots of mystery and suspense, and some supernatural and love. It was a riveting read that kept me turning pages. There was no love at first sight but instead a slow build up to love. Plenty of adventures await! You don't want to miss this book! ( )

I loved it. It's the first book in years to touch my heart. There was something about it that was just so right. Each chapter is written from either Ford's or Jackie's perspective; and that makes the story richer and funnier. ( )
