Synopsis:
A
hopeless crush…
Back in
high school, Allie McBride thought the sun set around Sam Fratto’s smiles, even
if they were only friends. Now she’s older, wiser, hotter, and teaching at the
same school they grew up in. When Sam joins the faculty, she has a chance to
make good on the crush that got away. But when a dead body turns up on school
grounds, they realize there might be a murderer in their midst. The heat keeps
getting hotter between Allie and Sam, but more might be in danger than their
hearts…
The cute
kid from high school is all grown up…
A family
crisis brings true-crime writer Sam Fratto back to town after more than a
decade’s absence. Teaching at his alma mater seems like a good way to pass the
time—especially when he sees that Allie, the geeky, sweet-mannered girl from
high school, has blossomed into the saucy teacher in the classroom next door.
Too bad finding a dead body transforms his return into one of his true-crime
books come to life. And when it seems the killer might be after Allie next,
it’s up to him to keep her safe…
A killer
determined to keep the past buried at any price…
As if
dealing with the return of one ghost from her past wasn’t enough, it looks like
the killer might be the person they least suspected. Someone from the past.
Someone with something to hide. Someone who thinks Allie and Sam are getting a
little too close to the truth. If Allie and Sam are going to get out of this
alive, these two friends to lovers will have to work together…or die together…
Tagline:

My Review: 4 stars
This was an interesting read. I will admit that by the end, I was wanting more of the romance that I had thought would happen. I mean, the romance did happen, but you had to wait til the end of the book until Sam tells Allie how he feels about her. They do have a physical relationship, but there are no details, so kind of disappointed there, but it's all good. I thought it turned out as more of a suspense novel, with a bit of romance. The story was well written and involved a lot of people. I liked that Allie stood up for herself and was a take no crap kind of woman. Strong heroines are always a huge plus with me. Sam, is a bit of a jerk at first, but he grows on you. He's intelligent, sexy and a successful writer. He's also disillusioned when it comes to relationships, but that's where Allie comes in. They have a great attraction to each other, even if they fought it initially. There are lots of twists, turns and unexpected things that happen, but that result in a really good book with an ending that is great. Read it, you won't be disappointed. I've read Ashlee before, and I'll read her work again, it's always good.

Bio:
Ashlee
lives with her husband, two kids, a dog, and cat surrounded by the majestic
mountains of her hometown of Salt Lake.
Born and
raised in Salt Lake City, Utah, she always wanted to know what it was like to
live on the other side of the mountains. In college, she interned a semester in
DC and later attended law school in Syracuse, New York, where she also ventured
to Israel for a summer semester. After graduating law school with a taste of
what it’s like living in the bigger world, she moved back home to Salt Lake and
took the Utah Bar Exam, got married, and settled in with her hubby and two
wonderful kids. After a few more years in the legal realm, she grew restless
and turned her pen to one of her first loves—writing stories.
Currently,
when she’s not working the day job as in-house counsel, she spends her time
with the family and squeezing in writing time—anything to avoid the housekeeping.
Just kidding, honey! ;)
She
writes with romance and humor at the heart of every story—and a healthy dash of
mystery and suspense.
Hopefully
she pulls it off.
