She’s the obsession two men share: one wants her love, the other wants her life.
A shared passion for justice first brought Baton Rouge district attorney Lauren Chandler and US marshal Anthony Ross together—when each played their part in bringing down the infamous Bayou Butcher. The sparks flying between the two made it clear they weren’t just a legal dream team. Then desire had to make way for duty, and what they had was done. But it would never be over.
Five years later, it’s none other than the Butcher who gets things started again, when his shocking jailbreak reunites the lawyer and the lawman…and reignites their love. But this time, the pair is in danger of being permanently parted—by a killer with revenge on his mind, and Lauren on the top of his list. As a new wave of terror sweeps through the streets and swamps of Baton Rouge, one man will pit his boundless passion against another’s relentless hate, for the life of the woman who obsesses them both.
Fear For Me is the second book in the Montlake Suspense series. It can be read as a stand-alone. I had the privilege of reading the first book in the series and I had thoroughly enjoyed it, as such when I had the chance to read Fear for me I was ecstatic. I received a copy from Net-Galley to provide an honest review. Fear For Me is a gripping and suspenseful story that had grabbed my attention from the very first word. This story took me on quite a ride that when it finally ended I was literally trying to catch my breath. For one moment I thought was watching an episode of Criminal Minds. It has so many twists and turns that it will have your head spinning just trying to figure out what the hell is happening. The story was fast paced and had me turning the pages as I so wanted to know who the villain was. I had made several guesses, but I was wrong on all accounts. When you think you have it figured out Ms. Eden comes with another twist that throws you completely. Although the main focus of the book was on the suspense, the romance between Anthony and Lauren was explosive. These two has a romantic history but for personal reasons Anthony had walked away. Now due to the reappearance of the Bayou Butcher their paths have crossed again. Their reunion was a bit cool at first but when these two finally let go of the past it became very explosive. If you are looking for story that will grab you and stays with you until the very end then you need to get yourself a copy of Fear For Me. Definitely recommend it to lovers of romantic suspense.
