Lisa Jackson keeps both the romance and suspense sizzling in Hot Blooded. Popular late-night radio host Dr. Samantha Leeds has a fan who'd like to love her to death...literally. The first time that Samantha received a threatening phone call as the body of a murdered prostitute was discovered in the New Orleans French Quarter, it seemed like pure coincidence. But then it happened again, and again, and the danger became clear. Now Dr. Sam has to face the fact that some Hot Blooded killer is out to get her -- and no one knows who it is. The police are convinced it's someone close to Sam. And Sam has to wonder about her mysterious new neighbor, Ty Wheeler, a handsome, sexy stranger who knows all too much about her. Could Ty know Sam's darkest secret, the one that someone has decided she must die for?

October 23, 2008:
Late night radio psychologist Samantha Leeds is drawn into a serial killers web when she starts receiving threatening letters and phone calls from a listener who goes by the name of John. John is actually a psychopath who holds Sam responsible for the death of a teenage girl who called into her show in Houston a decade earlier, and Sam was not able to reach her. In order to get Sam to repent, John strangles several hookers with a deadly rosary.
She gets involved with Ty, her sexy neighbor, and unbeknownst to her, he has sought out Sam with plans to use her for his own research to probe into the teen's death. When they start sleeping together, Ty realizes he has crossed the line, but fears that if he tells her the truth, she will hate him.
Working with NOPD Detectives Rick Bentz and Rueben Montoya to investigate the crime, Sam's ratings start to flourish with each phone call from John. As they race against the clock to learn John's real identity, Sam is not sure if she can trust those closest to her, including her estranged brother, her assistant, and the station owner, who wants to capitalize on John's presence for the ratings bonanza it has become.
This slick and fast-paced thriller tosses out so many possible baddies, that readers will be guessing until the very end. Fast pace, good read, pager turner. You will not be disappointed.
