From USA TODAY bestselling author, Maureen A. Miller, comes this romantic thriller that spans the Atlantic.Sophie Diem’s boss has skipped town, abandoning their counseling firm and taking her investment money with him. As she seeks to rebuild her professional career she is distressed by the appearance of a stranger. The man keeps to the shadows, but he is definitely stalking her. In an attempt … her. In an attempt to flee him she accepts a job offer…in London. Surely crossing the Atlantic would be enough to deter her Shadow.
Glenn Barber is a desperate man. He sorely wants answers. The man that can supply them has gone missing, though. Now all Glenn can do is go after the next best thing, the man’s former employee, Sophie Diem.
Sophie is shocked to spot her shadow in London. What she learns is that Glenn, the Shadow, is not a stalker, but rather her only protection. As her attraction to Glenn grows, together they conspire to locate her former boss and stop him before he can harm others.
“The sexual tension with Sophie and The Shadow was off the charts. Overall, the book had it all: romance, suspense and humor.”
“I loved this book. The characters were strong and the suspense was just right.”

Great story. Interesting twist to the ending.
I enjoyed this book! I read a lot. This was an unexpected pleasure to chance upon while searching for a new book to download.
Very anti climatic
Took way too long to get to any action in the story
Strange premise for a romantic story.
Fantastic story! I couldn’t put it down until I had finished it. Loved Sophie and the Shadow. I will be reading more of Maureen’s stories.
It felt flat.
Sophie’s partner has left, taking everything with him. As she is cleaning up messes, referring clients to other places, she is trying to get her own life back on track. But there is a man who has begun to stalk her. He shows up out of nowhere and wants to know where her partner Nathan is. Now taking a job in London to start her life over again, she feels that she is safe from this man. Until she is not! What does he want? Can she help him? I love a good romantic suspense, and this book has it all. Maureen A Miller wrote this romantic suspense with the word thriller involved! It’s full of a constant fear of this man until, and the wonder of who he is as well as the wondering what Nathan had done! The character of Sophie has an inner strength, is very smart and wants the truth for all involved, including herself. It’s a wonderfully written, slow burn and kept me involved for the entire listen.
Brandy Skelly is a new narrator to me. She was a little young sounding for the characters to me. Her voices were easily distinguishable and her pace is perfect. I did enjoy the suspense and emotional buildup she created while narrating and thought overall it was a good performance.
It was different and really held my interest. Full of excitement
If anyone had a dark cloud over her head that followed her around this chic did. Entertaining while it lasted but left me wanting a little more.
Great story without all the graphic sex scenes, so refreshing! However there was no need for all the GDs taking Gods name in vain is the easiest to avoid.
This book kept me interested. Different twist and turns that I didn’t see coming.
Four out of five stars. This book would make a good movie. There’s just enough mystery without getting to the nightmare creepy level. You can read it after dark without getting jumpy.
I enjoyed this standalone story. I liked the characters, I liked the suspense, I liked the premise. There was action, romance and some steam – very enjoyable read. Would have been nice to have a sequel!
Good book
It started out with a creepy main male character and a sympathetic female lead who was very cautious. Good, fast paced story.
Really good story a lot of adventure and
the main characters were strong
fast paced and couldn’t put it down
Loved this book! Read it twice!
I loved this book!! What a good story. Kept my interest from beginning to end. Definitely different!
This book had several twists & turns. Didnt expect a romance or the Shadow to be caring. Good easy to read book
