Review: Keep Me Safe – Maya Banks

A sizzling story of a woman who risks her life and her heart to find a wealthy man’s missing sister—the first novel in a sexy new romantic suspense series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Maya Banks

When Caleb Devereaux’s younger sister is kidnapped, this scion of a powerful and wealthy family turns to an unlikely source for help: a beautiful and sensitive woman with a gift for finding answers others cannot.

While Ramie can connect to victims and locate them by feeling their pain, her ability comes with a price. Every time she uses it, it costs her a piece of herself. Helping the infuriatingly attractive and impatient Caleb successfully find his sister nearly destroys her. Even though his sexual intensity draws her like a magnet, she needs to get as far away from him as she can.

Deeply remorseful for the pain he’s caused, Caleb is determined to make things right. But just when he thinks Ramie’s vanished forever, she reappears. She’s in trouble and she needs his help. Now, Caleb will do risk everything to protect her—including his heart. . .

Reviewer’s Thoughts

3.5 Stars

A suspenseful ride into the minds of physics who have the power to save and to also be the victim. Successful business man Caleb Devereaux  whose sister has been kidnapped with no clues to her whereabouts desperately needs the help of physic Raime, who happens to be in hiding herself to escape a physic connection to a deranged serial killer.

Raime just wants to be left alone. But when Caleb finds her he forces her to help him, but he doesn’t know the extent of her powers. When she touches something that belongs to the victim she starts living the nightmare they are living. She feels all the pain and suffering they feel. She can also see where they are being held. Caleb feels guilty after he sees what helping him has done to Raime. He vows to come back and help her but she is long gone when he finally comes looking for her.

When danger is near Riame again she has no choice but to call on the only man that offered her help after helping the victim. Caleb.
The attraction between these seemed a little on the rushed side. I mean they only had met once and all of sudden Caleb was in love with her. The story was good and very suspenseful but the chemistry between the two leads seemed hurried. But.  The last few chapters had me yelling at my kindle. I think the last few chapters is what really saved this book from being a 2 star read.  Would I recommend this read? Yes I would.
