Watch Me
I’ve always enjoyed reading something from Cynthia Eden. Whether it’s something paranormal or high intensity suspense, it’s always a guaranteed good time to be had. Watch Me gave me plenty of heat and left me on the edge of my seat while I tried to figure out who the heck was trying to kill all of these people. While I was invested in the second chance at a relationship Gwen and Chance were getting, I was absolutely absorbed with the idea of a stalker/killer on the loose. The fact that whodunit was not someone I had guessed only made this story better. So if you like a story about a mysterious psycho and a damsel’s need for the protection of the guy who got away, you’re in for a treat!
Want Me
This was just as thrilling as the last. After saving Sophie’s life in Watch Me, Lex is put on protective duty again when her life is in danger. Neither of them can deny their intense sexual chemistry, which seems to get in the way of the investigation. Is Sophie using him? As a lawyer, she’s used to keeping secrets, but when her secrets hindered rather than helped Lex to keep her safe, I wanted to knock her upside the head. What’s with these women not trusting the men they’ve gone to for help? Why did you choose them in the first place? And why do they suffer absolutely no consequences??? Anyhoo, a psycho is once again on the loose and although this time I was close enough to narrow my suspects down, I was still surprised. Another winner in my book!
Need Me
I sometimes felt that Julianna was her own worst enemy. She was on trial for the murder of her husband and she truly didn’t remember killing him. No one believes her and someone is out to get her. Her lawyer (Sophie from the last book) refers her to VJS and Devlin is on the case. He’s a pretty straight arrow but he knows that life isn’t black and white. He grew up in all kinds of messed up shades of grey. So why is it, when she knows that he’s on her side, even if it might be because he’s being paid to be there, why does she insist on lying??? The guy literally saved her from blowing up with her car, gunshots, vehicular homicide, etc., and yet still… she lies. She keeps her secrets even from her lawyer who is trying to SAVE HER LIFE!! I was waiting for someone, anyone, to really call her out. But once again, the damsel who believes herself to be as skilled as the professionals, suffered no consequences. Whatever. At least there was plenty of suspense, action, and hot sex scenes to be had.
Beware of Me
Carly was the sister of Julianna, the heroine from the previous book. Ethan was the man who seemed to be everywhere and involved in every thing. He and Carly shared a brutal past and a moment of insanity binds them together for life. However, it’s been years and after Ethan sent her away, for her own safety mind you, she’s been trying to move on with her life. Nothing she does really works and now it’s too late because Ethan is back because her life is once again in danger. Old enemies are gunning for her and the only person standing between her and certain death is the one man she believes isn’t good for her. While I absolutely hated the way Carly not only viewed Ethan, but how she treated him, I loved Ethan far too much to hold it against how much I enjoyed this story. From the beginning of this series, he’s been colored as the villain of every tale. He’s dangerous and death seems to follow him around. Yet, I found that he was so much more than everyone assumed. There were many reasons for why the women in his life constantly leap to his defense and I’m so happy that the author gave us a chance to see him for who he really is. He may just be my favorite hero of this entire series and I have no regrets. Between the crazily intense action and suspense scenes and the sensual chemistry he shared with Carly, I found it impossible to put this book down. When I got to the end, I didn’t want to let go.
In conclusion, if you’re a fan of strong characters, being on tenterhooks trying to figure out what happens next, and instalove, you’re gonna love this!
I really enjoyed this book series. Sexy romance, great suspense, exciting action, hot heroes, strong heroines…What more can you ask for? I’m now in the process of reading more of Cynthia Eden’s books. She’s written a lot, so I’m happy.:)
This is one of her best series
