In the middle of a heat wave, the cops just keep on working

When I heard that the novel the character Rick Castle wrote on the ABC television show Castle was actually a book, I was intrigued and actually bought it. The book is not very thick and the suspense keeps you turning the pages, so I finished reading it not long after I started. The idea is that this is the book Castle actually wrote himself, based on his time following Beckett. The book, titled Heat Wave, follows main characters Nikki Heat and Jameson Rook as they solve a crime. The book is very similar to the television show, with Castle's wit being an essential part of the novel. But one large difference is that in the book Nikki and Jameson have a few sexual encounters. This aspect is great for those who want nothing more than for Beckett and Castle to end up together.

I'm an avid reader and enjoy everything from suspense/thrillers to romances and the classics. This book may not be for everyone, but if you enjoy the show than it may be worth checking out. I had low expectations and really enjoyed it. I hope you do too. And, if you do read it, let me know what you think.
