Review

"Simply adorable doesn't begin to describe this charming contemporary romance. Lively banter and imaginative characters. . .come together to make this witty, whirlwind narrative a delight."

Product Description

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Kasey Michaels offers a snappy, sexy--and completely original--new take on comic mystery with the first book in a new series. Maggie Kelly is nothing if not resilient. She bounced back after getting fired from her old job as a writer of historical romances, reinventing herself as a mystery author. She bounced back when she discovered her lover--who also happened to be her publisher--cheating on her. But something just happened that's got tough-talking, quick-thinking Maggie swooning into her super-soft sofa cushions. Something in the form of an incredibly sexy Englishman by the name of Saint Just. Tall, dark, handsome, with an accent to die for and charm to spare, he's everything she's ever dreamed of in a man. There's just one problem. He is her dream man. He's the character who's made her a bestselling author. He's not real. However, now he's actually standing in the middle of Maggie's apartment--with the adorable, bumbling sidekick she created expressly for him right by his side. But just as Maggie's getting used to her new houseguests, things start to get quite a bit more complicated--in the "homicide" sense of the word. It seems her ex-lover, Kirk Toland, has had the nerve to die right there in her living room. . .of poisoning. . .after eating a dinner Maggie made. And if that weren't weird enough, Toland's death is followed by the murder of a colleague whom everyone knows Maggie hated. So now, the mystery writer has become the murder suspect. And the only sleuth who's really on Maggie's side is the one she invented!

Format:Mass Market Paperback
Atypical writer meets her creation.

Maggie, a bestselling author of Regency detective novels, gets a nasty surprise when her fictional creations spring to life and plague her apartment. The debonair and not-quite-so-cool-in-the-modern-world hero and his bumbling but kind sidekick have multiple adventures and keep Maggie on her toes.

An amusing peek into the publishing world, never to be taken as more than tounge in cheek.

Bouncy little story and jolly surmise, I happily whiled away the hours reading.

Could have been better 1 Jun 2003
By "tmh72" - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
Even though this is not exactly an original plotline, I was interested when I read the description on the back cover. I had a really hard time getting into this book. She spends way too much time setting up the story. Over a hundred pages into the book there was still no murder or romance. I did like the characters, and I will probably give the sequel a try before I completely give up. I just felt this book had too much background and not enough action and plot.

A blending of my favorite genres 25 Mar 2005
By C. Reaves - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
If I could, I'd arrange it so that Ms. Michaels wrote nothing but Maggie's adventures. This series combines several of my favorite genres: Regency romance, romantic-comedy, and mystery. (Granted, I rarely read straight mysteries.)

Maggie (other than her smoking habit) is who I want to grow up to be: a successful author with several good friends and a place she is happy living. I can't get enough of her, or Sterling, or Bernie, or any reoccuring character in this series!

I'm generally better with reviews - but it's like trying to review a friend. You forget which qualities to point out because you think everyone should realize how amazing they are.
