Every time she's around him, she winds up doing something horribly embarrassing. But, this time...everything has changed. This time, he's the one man she needs the most.

A stranger has broken into Piper's home twice, and she feels like someone is following her. Watching her every move. She needs a professional to help her - so enter Eric Wilde. He promises her protection, he promises to put his best investigators on her case, and he even moves her into his house. Suddenly, the guy who has always been the villain in her life...he's now playing the role of hero.

Everything will change as the danger mounts.

suspenseful and sexy and frustrating

Like most suspense they keep it going with stupidity and emotional decisions and this is no different. they even risk others because they are so clueless. the romance though is sweet and intense and sexy.

Great story but narration needs work

Love the suspense in this one. First book I have read from this author and I think they did a great job at keeping you guessing of who the bad guy was. Sweet how a simple childhood misunderstandings delayed the love these two had for each other.

The downside, the narration felt off. Even though the narrator has a lovely voice and had some inflection, their voice it still felt monotone. Made me feel like they were reading a college text book rather than a story.. I favor narratives that are a bit more lively.

Surprisingly good!

I was honestly expecting a bit of fluff but it had a great story, surprising twists and I absolutely am shocked I really enjoyed it! The narrator was good but I think it would have been better with a male narrator too.

Not my normal read but exceptionally amazing.

When I started this book and heard the flashback to 1940 I was sure this wasn't going to be for me. I'm so glad I kept going! This was a great book with wonderful character building, it had so much depth. The stories intertwined seemlessly. It was heart-breaking but still heart-warming with a great twist and an even better ending. I can't wait to read more from Cynthia Eden, she definitely has a new fan.

Loved the Twist

Eric and Piper have known each other since they were kids but Piper was his Brothers best friend. Who he's been crushing on for years, so he stayed away and treated Piper crappy to keep her away from him, and he has been waiting for the day When his Brother and Piper announce their getting married, except the night he is called and dreading the news its to find out that Piper has a stalker and his brother wants help protecting his BFF. Eric and Piper are put in close proximity and dreams, wishes, fantasies and desires come to surface for the two, the only problem is coming clean with their feelings, and fears and telling his brother and Pipers BFF that they are together and trying to catch the stalker. The twists and turns of this story will keep you turning the pages.

Absolutely amazing!

A must read! This book is a great start to an amazing series!!! You will not regret listening to this one!

Loved the Suspense!

loved that the suspense of the book and it going until the very end. I usually can figure out the perp early but this wqe stumped me for a while. was slightly hard knowing who's POV the narrator was in a few scenes

💕💕💕Eric & Piper💕💕💕💕

Characters are well developed, narration was great even though i wished their was also a male narrator. I loved the story and i loved how dark it was. This is worth the credit.

Absolutely loved this story

The Author did a great job with keeping the stalker a suspense. Great love story. A story of Beauty and the Beast. ❤️❤️❤️😂

Very entertaining story and performance

I love the characters in this book. The story is full of entertaining suspense with some great action scenes. I'm not a fan of graphic sex scenes, but those are easily skipped. The path of the romance between Eric and Piper was long with bumps along the way, but their love for each other won out. It is really a very engaging enjoyable book with a very good performance and a happy ending!
