Heat Wave

Average rating3.4
I'm an unabashed fan of the TV show Castle and this book captures the playful tone of that while adding a level of world-building to the show via giving us the novels that are frequently mentioned.
Someone recommended this book to me because I needed a break from Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series. They said that their grandfather is a good judgment of books and they were right. I never watched Castle but I loved the first book of the Nikki Heat series. Loved it! Seriously, if you like the series, then these books are just your thing, especially if you have a deep appreciation of irony. The only thing that bothered me is how cold, and sometimes even a little cruel, Heat is with Rook. I love the concept - reading a book by a fictional author based on characters in a TV series. Maybe not novel, but definitely well executed. fun, easy reads with (mostly) likable characters, a good story line, plenty of excitement, and just enough sex to make you want more!
As a fan of the television show Castle, I enjoyed reading the first book of the “Nikki Heat” series. I not only liked the mystery but I also liked remembering scenes from the show and seeing the subtle changes depicted in the book. I look forward to reading the next book, Naked Heat.
