The last thing historical mystery writer Maggie Kelly needs in her hectic life is an arrogant man. But when brilliant aristocratic sleuth Alexandre Blake, Viscount Saint Just, walks off the pages of her latest Regency novel and into her New York apartment, that's just what she ends up with and she has only her own imagination to blame. Although having an out-of-time gorgeous hero around is challenging, to say the least, it does come in handy when Maggie is suspected of killing her ex-boyfriend. Lively, sassy, and occasionally off-the-wall hilarious, this paranormal romance makes for great summer reading, and Michaels's many fans will be waiting

From the back of the book: My name's Maggie Kelly, and I'm as sane as you are. Or as sane as you'd be if you'd just discovered the "fictional" character that made you a bestselling author hanging out in your apartment. His name is Saint Just. Alexandre Blake, Viscount Saint Just, to be exact. And he's a detective, which might actually come in handy, considering I'm now a murder suspect.... Isn't it just like an ex-boyfriend to up and die on your sofa at the worst possible time? Did I mention the deceased was also my publisher? So while I try to figure out how not to get arrested, I'm also wondering how I'll get out of this one with my career--and my life--intact. Not to mention my heart. Because I can't completely ignore my attraction to Saint Just. He's my dream man made flesh, after all. Even if he does leave the cap off the toothpaste. So here I am. In trouble. In lust. In over my head. Trying to get the NYPD off my case and the supersleuth of yesteryear back into my PC where he belongs. These things are so much cuter when they happen to Meg Ryan. If I could write a happy ending for this one, believe me, I would. But first I'd need a clue where to start....

The first book in the 'Maggie' series. Entertaining, fun and creative. I can't wait to read the rest of the series.

I just can't get into this so I'm putting it aside and reading something else. So many books, so little time!
