Felicia Avery cannot believe the day she is having. What was supposed to be an audition to win the role of her dreams, quickly turned into a nightmare ending with her fleeing in a torn dress and the director lying in a pool of his own blood. Now there are two gorgeous detectives knocking on the door of her room at the Pacific Breeze, asking questions and warning her she may be in danger herself. Scared and certain her career is destroyed even before beginning, Felicia is ready to head home. Only the connection she feels for Detective O’Rourke makes her want to stick around.

Sean O'Rourke knows in his gut that whoever killed the lecherous movie mogul C.B. DeWarner is the same one threatening Felicia. Now all he has to do is stick close and keep her safe while he and his partner track the killer down. It won’t be too hard to do because since the moment he laid eyes on the gorgeous redhead starlet she has captured his every thought, and near her is the only place he would like to be.

Set in Hollywood, in midst of the fabulous 50's, author Josie A. Okuly has captured both the flavor and the feeling of the era, thus setting a backdrop which allows this story to come to life in vivid detail. The characters are well formed and likeable, especially Felicia and her handsome protector, and the plot is fast paced and well told. I devoured this in one sitting and enjoyed every minute of it! I predict this one is destined to head straight for many a keeper shelf!
