BOOK REVIEW- Mine To Take (Mine- Romantic Suspense # 1) by Cynthia Eden

   

Skye Sullivan knows that someone is watching her. Not just watching--stalking her. Months ago, Skye was involved in a dangerous car accident. The accident ended her dancing career and sent her fleeing back to Chicago. Skye is convinced that her stalker caused the crash, and she fears that he won't stop pursuing her, not until she's dead.

When someone breaks into her apartment in Chicago, Skye turns to the one man she believes can protect her--Trace Weston. Once, Trace was her lover. Two lost souls, they'd come together in a firestorm of need and desire. But then Trace had pushed her away. He'd joined the military, vanishing from her life. She'd put all of her emotion into dancing, and she'd tried to forget him.

Now Trace is one of the most successful men in the United States. Rich, driven, and carrying dark secrets, he agrees to help Skye. He'll protect her from the danger that lurks in the darkness, but Trace wants more than to just be a guard for Skye.

He wants her. And he'll take her. The years have changed him, hardened him. He's not just a poor kid from the streets any longer. Now, he can have anything--or anyone--that he wants. And the one woman he has always wanted has just come back into his life. He won't let her go again.

But with the threats mounting against Skye, she suspects that her stalker may be intimately close. He's a man who knows her too well. As his attacks grow ever more dangerous, she realizes that if she trusts the wrong man, she could be making a fatal mistake.

Lust. Love. Obsession.

Just how far would you go in order to possess the one person you want the most?

4 STARS

Wow, the people you get to be suspicious of their motives grows.  Who can Skye trust?  Once upon a time Skye trusted Trace.  Is that still true?  

Even Trace realizes that there was just something about Skye that just draws men to her.  Even when she wasn't dancing. But she had been pure magic when she danced.   And dancing had been something that helped saved her from her disastrous teenage years.  I liked that we got to "see" both of their points of views.  And their history together even if it started out 10 years ago and then a gap to the current time.

The danger to Skye just keeps escalating with almost no one believing that she has a dangerous stalker.  A bit easier to understand with almost no proof of someone attacking her.  

I liked how the story ended with a H.E.A. for now.  Their story does continue in another book, "Mine to Keep."
