This Help a Bitch Out request is from Noeli, and she's looking for a book she lost in a hard drive crash (ouch. My sympathy):
Hello! I'm looking for a story I read more than 3 years ago, before my computer crashed and I lost everything on it (please all of you do frequent backups of your documents and books!). I'm pretty sure it was part of an anthology (perhaps an erotica anthology as I read lots of them some years ago).
The heroine and the hero (whose name may be Nick) are both cops, and at one point they were together but the heroine dumped him (perhaps after he proposed? Not sure). Now he's with another woman. They must work together because there's a serial killer targeting blond women, like the heroine, and sending her some kind of material about his killing (because in fact she's his main target).
Of course being together again reignites the passion between them, otherwise there wouldn't be any story.
The important point is that the heroine has some kind of psychic ability, she has visions or dreams about the future. So since being a teen I think she has known she'll be killed and how and when. That's why she broke it up with the hero, for him not to suffer about her death (snort). Finally her power brings him to her after she's abducted, like some kind of beacon, and most of all she's be able to attack the killer's brain to slow him down (or kill him? I think I remember something about the brain leaking by the ears but it could be in another story)(it didn't sound so gross in the story).
There's also a point about the killer (who is their boss by the way) killing young blond women as substitute for the heroine's mother he lusted after when they were young. And the fact the hero comes across the heroine's diary where she writes every dream/vision, and at first he thinks she's crazy or delusional.
Oh, my. Does anyone recognize this book? (I'm kind of curious what happens to the woman the hero is dating, poor thing).
