About this eBook
New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden offers readers a new "Dark Obsession" romantic suspense tale...NEED ME.
Innocent…or guilty?
The cops think that Julianna Smith is a murderer. No one will listen when Julianna claims she’s innocent, and as the suspicions mount against her, only Julianna knows the truth…a killer is hunting her. Somewhere in the darkness, a stalker is closing in and preparing to deliver a final justice that she can’t escape.
He’s her only option.
Devlin Shade isn’t a man who trusts easily, and when Julianna Smith walks into VJS Protection, he’s well aware of her reputation—the sexy blond could be a cold-blooded murderer. Only when he looks at her, cold is the last thing that Devlin feels. There’s an instant attraction between them—hot, fierce, primal. And he agrees to take her case. He’ll be her bodyguard. He’ll keep her safe from the enemy hunting her, and he’ll also find out the truth about the mysterious Julianna. If she is a killer, he’ll turn her over to the cops himself.
She can’t let him get too close…
Julianna knows that she is walking a dangerous line with Devlin. She never expected to want him so much, and as they grow closer, she realizes that he’s working to uncover her secrets. But the secrets that she carries are worth killing for…and she can’t let anyone discover the truth, not even Devlin.
Killer or victim…
Soon the thin line between right and wrong is blurred. For Devlin, the case becomes personal, and all that matters is Julianna—keeping her safe and stopping the stalker who is on her trail. As he slides deeper into Julianna’s dangerous world, Devlin’s own darkness rises up. He’s played the good guy for so long, but now his mask is falling away. He isn’t controlled, he isn’t safe, and when Julianna is threatened, he will cross any line to keep her safe.
NEED ME.
Some needs can push you to the edge of sanity…
Author's Note: NEED ME is a complete, stand-alone story. All of the books in the Dark Obsession series are stand-alone titles.

Need Me by Cynthia Eden Genres: Adult, Crime, Romance, Suspense 1.75 Stars (To be fair) It was absolutely unspeakable 'TORTURE' reading this one. 🧀🧀🧀 So much cheese you could make the Tallest Mountain in the World out of it. Errors, typos, incorrect words, names in the wrong place, sentence structure problems, jumpy flow and BORING! On top of that, numerous TSTL moments. Mostly by the female MC, but also other characters. Now, add to that, my biggest Pet Peeve of ALL Pet Peeves, REPETITION. 🔁 Repetitive thoughts by the female MC, Julianna.🔂 Repetitive thoughts by the male MC, Devlin.🔁 Repetitive dialogue throughout. 🔂 I'm just overjoyed my torture is over for this one. But, now I am worried about the next in the series. See, I bought the bundle. There are 4 books in the bundle and the best book so far was book #2. I wonder how long it will take to get the taste of this 'Swamp Drivel' out of my brain before I build up the nerve it will take to read book #4 and finish this omnibus. 😨

Good suspense and romance. It really shows what a person is willing to do and sacrifice for the one you love. I only wish it was longer. That is showed more depth into Reese's character. Maybe explained better how he hooked up with Anna Jean.

Devlin isn't the trusting sort, but something about Juliana demands his protection and the reader can't help but get caught up in the smoldering passion that flows from the pages as Devilin tries to learn Julianna's secrets and keep her alive. The attraction between them is clearly combustible and soon their desires are heading toward the hot and steamy despite all the reasons that a relationship between them would be impossible. The strong, demanding characters draw readers in and refuse to let go while the fast past and smooth flowing plot thrills readers with lots of suspense, action and romance. Lots of edgy excitement and spine tingling tension builds throughout the story as someone plays a deadly game of stalking and murder and no one is safe but most especially Julianna. Past secrets and relationships are revealed which adds more spice to the story and unexpected twists and several possible suspects keeps everyone guessing. The well timed events ensure that there is never a dull moment ensuring that the readers can't put this story down and the well written scenes and details bring it all to life.
