Best-selling author Delaney Shea strives to put an end to her nightmares, an aftereffect of the serial killer who stalked, captured, and nearly killed her. Writing about romance and planning her Christmas wedding to FBI Special Agent Jordon Burke, the hero who saved her, helped remind Delaney of her strength. By acknowledging her courage, Jordon also restored her faith and promised that not even a virus could reach her now.
Delaney’s loyal fans are glued to her social media accounts for the latest news about her upcoming nuptials, calling it the “wedding of the year.” One fan in particular, Allison Marsh, has gone as far as accepting a job at the literary agency that represents Delaney-all to get closer to the author and be part of her inner circle. She attempts to snuggle up to Burke, who only has eyes for Delaney and quickly shuts her down. But with a slight tweak to her plan, Allison turns her attention toward his partner, Special Agent Gavin Collins.
Before long, the FBI agents conclude that Allison’s intentions are far from harmless, and something more sinister than friendship is churning in Allison’s mind.
Are they too late to stop her?
Allison Marsh thinks so.
She admits her desire to be close to Delaney and wants the world to see them as the best of friends. To Allison, however, the reason goes much deeper-deeper even than the delusional disorder she’s been labeled with.
Allison has colored and cut her hair to match Delaney’s shade and length. She purchased contact lenses the same green as her eyes. It wasn’t just to be her friend. No, Allison plans to be Delaney, to replace her.
If asked why, she might tell you. Millions of people love Delaney. It says so on the back of all her books.
