Walk on the wild side with New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden's dark new romantic suspense, BEWARE OF ME. Criminal. Killer. Monster. Ethan Barclay has been called many things in life, and he usually doesn't care what people say about him. He's tough, hard, and brutal when he needs to be. But even the most dangerous of men can have a weakness. Ethan's weakness has—and always will be--Carly Shay. Their pasts are tied together—twisted and melded by blood and death. Walking away from Carly was the hardest thing that Ethan ever did, but it was also his one good deed. He knew Carly deserved far better than him, and he wanted her to have a perfect life, a life that didn't involve paying for Ethan's sins. Only now the secrets from their past have been revealed, and Carly's life is on the line. Ethan's enemies, Carly's enemies—the predators are closing in on them. But Ethan isn't going to let Carly be threatened. He will move heaven and hell to protect her. He won't lose Carly, not again, and for those foolish enough to try and take her from him...they are about to see just how deadly Ethan truly can be.

This is the fourth book in Cynthia Eden’s Dark Obsession series, and as much as I’ve been waiting for Ethan’s book, I have to admit, this wasn’t my favorite.

Ms. Eden’s trademark brand of sex appeal and suspense were present, but I just didn’t love it.

Carly and Ethan share a tragic past, one full of horror and shrouded in mystery. And while Ethan has built up his empire, sometimes legally, sometimes…not, Carly has spent her time staying away from everyone she loves to protect them.

Little does she know, Ethan’s been keeping tabs on her.

Ethan has never been able to let go of the memory of the 17 year old girl who tried to save him. So he feels it’s time to return the favor. Especially now that it seems someone wants to remind Carly that her past can come back to haunt her.

This book was just as intense and well done as the others, and I’m intrigued by a new player. I think that Cynthia Eden has become my go-to for a good, thrilling, Romantic Suspense. I always know I won’t be able to stop turning pages, and the edge-of-your-seat, heart-in-throat feeling comes with each one of her books.

This book works as a stand alone, but if you’re looking to start this series, very often the first book Watch Me is on sale.
