The nude male body lay on the embalming table, battered beyond recognition. Gingerly, Summer McAfee, chairman, CEO, and sole employee of Daisy Fresh cleaning service, reached out to touch an arm to reassure herself that she hadn't just seen the corpse move. Suddenly, shockingly, her hand was in the viselike grip of a man very much alive and desperate enough to take her captive on a no-holds-barred run from cops, killers, and his own decidedly complicated past...Summer's former life as a New York lingerie model had gone south with her marriage, leaving her, at thirty-six, single and back home in Tennessee, on her hands and knees scrubbing other people's bathrooms. But the drab present vanishes in a flash as she's forced to flee into the Tennessee wilds with the stranger she calls Frankenstein, first as his captive, then his companion, as they run from the enemies determined to destroy them both--straight into a raging passion that could only be the last laugh of fate...

"The first story "The Hat Man" had a lot of potential but there were some grammatical errors and some of the writing needed some polish. To me, it was not the best story in the book. But great news, the rest of the stories were a lot better. Walking After Midnight was probably the best story. There were other grammatical and spelling/typo errors in this book - not too many to be distracting from the story but enough that they're noticeable, so a good editor would make a difference. But overall, I think this was a spooky and entertaining read and would recommend it."
