All I can say is wow – what a thrilling adventure with characters you want to know and a twisty mystery that kept me on the edge of my seat, unable to put the book down and not wanting it to end when I got to the last page. I loved the instant attraction and undeniable chemistry between freelance writer, Sheri Harte and Detective Justin Wylde, and their dynamic with the secondary characters added to my reading pleasure. Ms. Vaughan is one of my favorite writers and never disappoints whatsoever; and I can hardly wait to see what she will have for us next. If you enjoy well-crafted suspenseful romance, you will love “Hidden Obsession”. I received an advance reader copy of this book from Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving my review. I enjoyed it so much, I purchased a copy to read again later.
Freelance ghostwriter Sherri Harte returns to her hometown when contracted to write a memoir. A place that is shrouded in traumatic memories and pain for her. When a murder stuns the town, there will be o shortage of suspects. Justin Wylde crosses paths with Sherri during his investigation of the murder, their attraction is immediate. When the killer strikes again the danger comes even closer.
I enjoyed the blend of secrets, mystery and romance. It kept me interested from the first chapter to the last.
The second book in the Obsession series a well written mystery suspense story that kept me turning pages. Freelance writer Sheridan Harte returns to her Maine hometown where she meets Detective Justin Wylde. Their story kept me on the edge of my seat.

Hidden Obsession is the perfect title for this book. I had a few inklings about the murderer towards the end but still Susan kept the road so twisted and curved that I was still surprised about how it played out. Great entertaining read with numerous very likeable and unique characters where the romance between Sheri and Justin is a sub-plot that adds to the complexity of the story and fuels some of the developments in the investigation, but is not the focus. Definitely a book you will want to finish once started!

This was a great book, it had me hooked form the beginning. It left you guessing until the end as to who was the one behind it all. The relationship between Justin and Sheri added to the story.

Set in a small fishing village in Maine, this crime romance brings together a detective with a heart and a writer. I found the main characters in this book interesting and enjoyed the fact that whilst Justin Wylde was protective and caring towards Sheri, he respected her views and intelligence, and took her observations into consideration, especially as the killer’s strikes were getting closer to home. Although suspenseful, the book isn’t particularly gruesome. The plot is also interesting and with all the inhabitants’ lives being intertwined, everyone is a suspect. Justin has only one rule in relationships: honesty. When he discovers Sheri’s secret, he feels that his trust has been broken and it takes yet another threat to her life for him to sort out the differences between his own past and Sheri’s experiences. This book is well written and kept my interest, and comes to a successful close. I received this book for free from eBook Discovery. I voluntarily post this review. This is my honest review.
Mystery, murder, suspense, romance, hot sex…this book has it all! Sheridan (Sheri) Harte shows up in Dragon Harbor, Maine, to ghostwrite her friend’s grandmother’s memoirs. Enter Detective Justin Wilde who is investigating a murder that Sherry’s friend has just witnessed. The ensuing story pulls you in as more attacks and another death grip tis small community. Both main characters harbor secrets that have stunted their ability for relationships, yet they are inexorably drawn to each other. Excellent read! This is my first time reading this author. Justin’s sister’s story is the first in this two-book series. Will definitely read that one as well. I received this book for free from ebBook Discovery. I voluntarily post this review. This is my honest review.
