Halle Blackwood thought she had life figured out: Write steamy books. Fake a happy marriage. Pretend temptation didn’t have a Texas drawl and a slow, easy smile.
Then narrator Julius Fontaine stepped out of her headphones and into her face — married, messy, and dangerous — and suddenly fiction felt a little too real.

First I must say, this book is most definitely one of Eric Jerome Dickey’s greater works. The Blackbirds is over five-hundred pages of greatness. Although you certainly don’t need to, I would suggest you read prior works of Eric Jerome Dickey’s before reading Blackbirds. While we are introduced to new characters like Indigo, Nancy, Eddie, and Cristiano, we’re also get reacquainted with old characters like Destiny and her father, Keith, from Chasing Destiny and Dr. Debra Dubois and Ericka...
Man, whew. I've waited so long for EJD to get back to this style of writing. Now don't get me wrong I love Gideon and the chick from A Wanted Woman, but I longed for the day EJD would get back to the Cheaters and Liar's Game style of writing.

First off, let me say it did my heart some good to get an update on so many of my fave characters from EJD's earlier works. There was Dante (Thieves Paradise),...
I read this book in a matter of hours.I'm not quite sure how to explain this one. While the ending made me want to toss my laptop across the room, I know that Jackie and Mr. Orange County will stay with me for a long time.

This book reminded me of the EJD of old. This type of writing is what made...
