I liked this book. It was so suspenseful. The romance part of the story was good, but I really like suspense. It's so intriguing to me.

This one was one I really connected with. Given that everyone has fears I think this one was able to really get to me. While I was reading I kept thinking about the things that I'm scared of. I could almost feel the fear that the victims were feeling when they realized what was happening to them. It gave me chills quite a few times.

The romance in this was pretty good. I didn't really connect with either Luke or Monica. They were believable characters, and they were really well written. In this one the victims were the ones that I had more of an emotional connection with. Although towards the end Monica did become a bit endearing.

The writing was really good in this one. The story just flowed, it had a few lulls, but they were easily overcome. The images were so vivid I could see what was happening. I really didn't want to put it down.

As much as I like to read suspense it always amazes me the way the authors can "get into the head" of the killers. It takes an emotional toll on me to read these books, I can't even imagine living with that in my head while writing.... This one had to be very disturbing to write.

I really liked this one. I will have to pick up more of Eden's novels.

This was just kind of 'run of the mill' suspense--the main character was a victum of a kidnapping when she was a teen and later became an FBI agent, this character is annoying to the point I just wanted to skim pages to get past the part about her past,etc. Her reuniting with her lover makes him seem like an angel to put up with such an annoying person.
