Female protagonist
Woman survived serial killer but became very security conscious. Home is a mini fortress. Wears boots continuously as serial killer cut heels during attacks/kidnapping. (This boot thing seems to have really stuck in my head for some reason)
Similar Killings happen. I don't remember why the woman gets involved again.
I think new killings are happening to female students at the local university/college.
There is a love interest with the main character.
Set in America

I know this isnt a lot to go on but this has really start to bug me
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hmm. When would you have read this? (If you can suggest a year, or even a rough decade, it can be a big help in a search.)

I read this in my late teens so around 2008. I'm almost 100% it was a paperback, and at that point in my life it would have definitely been from a charity shop or from a library, so would have been published earlier.

I'm curious if you get this figured out- this description sounds so familiar to me, but I can't quite place it.
