Synopsis

Marriage. It's a double-edged sword, or at least it is for Nikki Heat. Her husband, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Jameson Rook, infuriates her in a way no one else in her entire life has ever done. He also takes her to heights of pleasure she has never experienced. But most of all, she loves the man with all her heart and she'd do anything to protect him. Which is just what she had done not so long ago. It had almost cost them everything.

Now, Rook is given the honor to be a visiting professor at his alma mater, and he can't pass up the opportunity to mentor bourgeoning writers at his former award-winning college newspaper. Shortly after his arrival on campus, a female reporter for the paper is found dead?naked?in Rook's bed.

Dealing with betrayal from any man is not Nikki's style. She and Jameson have had plenty of conflicts during their complicated relationship, but none like this. Is her husband keeping secrets of his own, or can she really trust him? In order to find out, Nikki gives Jameson the benefit of the doubt and digs into Jameson's theory of a secret society within a secret society. What she finds puts her investigative skills, and her marriage, to the test.

A definite disappointment. To begin with, whoever wrote this is not familiar enough with the storyline to date. Sharon Hinesburg died several books ago, yet here she is! How could the editors have missed such a glaring continuity error! Ugh! As another review mentioned, there is far too much expositi......more

Goodreads review by Katie on March 19, 2019

The Nikki Heat series is one of my favorite murder mystery series... or really, I should say “was”. The ghost writer for this piece is definitely NOT the same one who wrote the initial series. Bringing back a once-dead detective? And Nikki Heat has a brother? Also, the banter between Heat and Rook w......more

Goodreads review by Judy on April 07, 2019

I dont know if this was the same author or not but it sure felt different from the previous versions. They case was so out there, the relationship was foremost, which was not the standard. The author was more concerned with Heat & Rook than a murder. And Heat having an ex was totally out of characte......more

Crashing Heat just reminds me how much I miss the series Castle, the dynamics, the loyalty, and the intrigue that keeps you engaged.......more

Full of quips from the team that brought us the Castle tv programs. They must have a lot of fun with these stories. Too bad the actor who plays Rook was not the reader. This has lots of twists to keep you thinking. This could be a good movie if Hollywood didn’t ruin it.......more
