Will happily-ever-after still be on the cards when fiction and reality blur for Roxie?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen Roxie makes a tongue-in-cheek wish to live out the plot of her favourite author’s next novel, she has romance in mind — namely, the sweet, safe, swoon-worthy storylines Anna Matthews is known for. It should be a dream come true when her wish is granted by a mysterious busker, and she finds herself swept into a fairytale first date with a dashing stranger who seems destined to take her breath away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eExcept for one little hiccup: that dashing stranger tries to take her breath away. Literally. With a knife. The thing is, Roxie may be the new Anna Matthews protagonist — but this time, Anna is writing a crime thriller.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrown into a perilous genre she’s never read, Roxie is desperate for help.
