This was suspenseful book that keeps you up until the end. It doesn't end like you would think it would. It was well written.

This book was not very good to me, which was a very big disappointment! The first Lisa Jackson book I read was Shiver and I loved it. But this one could not hold my interest. I think it was because I was not very into the main character. Dr Sam was pretty boring. The only thing I liked about her was that she found a good man. But other then that, she was snoozesville. I am, although, looking forward to reading the compainion book, Cold Blooded.

I really enjoyed this book. Took me a little longer to get into, but once it got my attention it was great. Enjoy!
This was a wonderful story!! It kept me on the edge of my seat during the whole thing. Since I had just visited the wonderful city of New Orleans this summer, it made it all the more interesting. I definitely recommend this and can't wait to start the second book in the series!

This like all of Lisa Jackson books, is super. Lisa keeps you in suspense to the very end. You keep thinking that you have figured out you is the killer, only to find out it is the person that you least suspect. A must read.
If you read this then you want to read Cold Blooded, which is the second one in this series.

The romance took a back seat to the murders so don't let the title scare you off.

Another great thriller/mystery by Lisa Jackson! Popular late-night radio host Dr. Samantha Leeds is being terrorized by a mysterious caller who calls himself "John". Great read and descriptions of New Orleans make me almost feel as though I was there. Although...I wouldn't want to be in Samantha' shoes - waaaay too many murders and threats surrounding her!
Really good book. You can't help but get into the characters personally! It keeps you guessing.
Another one of the books i picked up on a whim, and it sat in my "to be read" pile for weeks. With nothing else to read i gave it a shot. I was not disappointed. It grabs you right away and has so many layers, it was hard to figure out who the killer was. Jackson kept me in suspense until the very end. Samantha is a late night radio "shrink", escaping from a terrible incident in Houston, but it has followed her to New Orleans. Ty Wheeler was a part of the Houston investigation, and is in New Orleans to meet Samantha so he can right a book. Little did he know he would fall for her and be immersed in the killers new game of revenge. Definitely a page-turner.

Radio pyschologist is stalked by someone connected to a listener who committed suicide years ago. Or so they thought it was suicide. But are jealous co-workers at the radio station possibly involved too? Who is the charming neighbor who just moved in nearby? Is he a good samaritan or the stalker?
A real page turner, this book kept me reading til late at night. Only disappointing factor for me was that the New Orleans setting didn't factor into the plot. I thought it would give me a nice trip down memory lane, especially since the series is called "New Orleans", but no such thing. Will read book 2 to follow up and see which characters reappear.

FIRST ONE DEAD BODY
A prostitute lies strangled in a seedy French Quarter hotel room. Miles away, in a rambling plantation house on the sultry shores of Lake Ponchartrain, popular late-night radio host Dr. Samantha Leeds receives a threatening crank call. All in a day's work for a celebrity. Who would think to link the two?
THEN ANOTHER
A second hooker's corpse turns up. Samantha's ominous caller persists, along with a mysterious female claiming to be a woman from her past - a woman who's been dead for years. With Detective Rick Bentz convinced that the serial killer prowling the shadowy streets of New Orleans is somebody close to Samantha, she doesn't dare trust anyone, especially not Ty Wheeler, her seductive new neighbor who seems to know more about her than a stranger should.

As always Lisa Jackson hit the spot. I and my husband enjoyed this book greatly.
One of the best books I have ever read!
enjoyed hot blooded by lisa jackson didn't want to put it down
Had to skip the romance parts.
a serial killer is in new orleans radio shrink talk show host is getting calls from killer a very good book must read
Suspense at it's scary best!
keeps you guessing through whole book very good read
This book is a thriller, and will leave you in the dark until the end.
This was my first book by this author and I really enjoyed it and can't wait to read the follow up Cold Blooded.
Thrill ride with just a dab of romance. Not sure why this person does romance when she does mystery/thriller so well!
Another great Lisa Jackson mystery. Takes place in New Orleans, good book.
My second Lisa Jackson book, after reading "absolute Fear". I did not want to put the book down. The pace is fast and she puts a hint of guilt on different characters to keep you in suspense. I like the characters Bentz and Montoya, so much that I am reading that series in order of publication.
Book 1 features Detective Rick Bentz who is also in Cold Blooded (Book 2) with his own story.
This was a great, edge of your seat romantic suspense. This is the first with these characters, with the follow-up being called Cold Blooded.
Great mystery! Will have to look for more books by this author.
Too long and too boring--that's all it takes for me to put down a book and move on
So Who is the Mystery Caller. You will have to read the book to the very end. Who should she trust? Nice pairing of characters and a good assortment of potential villians. How can the murders be tied to the pretty Psychologist who hosts the late night talk show. Some familiar detectives reappear to help solve this mystery.
Great read
Detective Rick Bentz hunts for a serial killer terrorizing radio host, Dr. Samantha Leeds.
