DIE FOR ME is a brilliant, non-stop thriller that consumed my thoughts and I simply couldn't it put down until the end. I found myself breathless and on edge most of the time while reading it. The twists and turns in the plot had me hanging on just about every word that Cynthia Eden wrote.
As with many of her romantic suspense books she keeps you on the edge of your seat and just when you think the end is near, something else happens and you have started another wild ride. Cynthia does a fantastic job winding the plots together. Each time I thought she missed something or didn't tie up a loose end, I found it was intentional and the characters would notice and address it.
Dane and Katherine are very well developed characters. Dane is a tough detective that normally does not mix business and pleasure. He is determined to solve a case at whatever means necessary, but within protocol. Katherine has been hiding for the past three years and is tired of looking over her shoulder. Dane and Katherine have lived through some really difficult times and it is in the moments in which they let down their guard with one another that you see just how compatible they are. The romance and intimacy in this book is very appropriate for the characters and the story.
The Valentine killer in the story was a very complex man. I enjoy books in third person so you get to see what the antagonist is thinking and what drives him. The other characters in the story are very instrumental in the plot and I think Cynthia does a wonderful job using them to not only throw us off but to constantly keep us on guard. I highly recommend DIE FOR ME by Cynthia Eden if you are looking for a romantic thriller that will leave you a little breathless and looking over your shoulder.
