Romance Suspense | Romance Erotica Sensual

Samantha Dark has faced many trials and dangers in her life and just when she thinks she has it all worked out she is shocked to find that she has been fooled. Her job as an F.B.I. profiler is to know what is going on in the twisted minds of criminals, but when it's a former lover of hers that is the serial killer, her reputation and job are gone. When the killing spree starts up again, Blake Gamble knows who to go to. Samantha's ex-partner is the one person she might might be able to trust. This ex-military guy is the perfect F.B.I. agent and he trus F.B.I. agent and he trusts that Samantha will do her best to stop the killer. He is willing to put his life on the line to prove it. Can he protect her from the crazy who just might might be after her? Is Samantha this killer's real target? AFTER THE DARK is a riveting, psychological thriller that will have you jumping out of your skin. I have to admit I read it in one sitting and breathed a sigh of relief at the end. And not at all because it was over, but that it ended well for Samantha and Blake. Samantha has lived a life fraught with danger and death and through it all just wanted to help people and be trusted to do her job. She feared that she might be a little like those she profiled. Blake is a no nonsense guy who knows and trusts her and wants more than a platonic partnership. His problem will be holding back his protective side and allowing Samantha to do what she has to do to get her life, and herself, back. Despite the darkness of the subject matter, author Cynthia Eden manages to put in strategically placed moments of lightness and romance, and the steamy moments rose right off the pages. If you want riveting characters, danger and action, sweet and steamy romance, and a woman fighting for her very self with a man who will be at her back no matter what then AFTER THE DARK by Cynthia Eden is for you.

Blamed for the FBI's failure on the complex case, Samantha left Washington, DC, for the quiet anonymity of Alabama. Now an all-too-familiar killer is hunting once again. She can catch the cunning assassin, but that means putting her trust in her former partner, Blake Gamble. Ex-military, Blake is tough, protective, precise.

A threat is waiting in the dark, a killer who has set his sights on the ultimate trophy victim—Samantha.
