Publisher's summary

Who was the real killer? Romain Fornier lost his reason for living when his daughter was kidnapped and murdered. He used a cop's gun to mete out his own justice and spent the next few years in prison. Once he was freed, he returned to his Cajun roots in small-town Louisiana. But now he learns that he might have killed the wrong man. Jasmine Stratford, a psychological profiler, is convinced his daughter's killer is still alive - and that she and Romain have something in common. She believes the same man kidnapped her sister, Kimberly, 16 years ago. What happens next? Jasmine is determined to track him down when she receives an anonymous package, postmarked New Orleans - the bracelet she gave Kimberly for her eighth birthday. She approaches Romain because she knows he can help her... if he chooses. But searching for the man who irrevocably changed both their lives means they have to rise to a killer's challenge: stop me.

Excellent book. Kept my attention throughout. I was hooked from the beginning. Enjoyed it very much and would recommend.

Could Not Stop Listening

I really enjoyed the book. I just could not stop listening to the story. Great plot.

Duh!!

What character would you cut from Stop Me?

THE MAIN FEMALE CHARACTER!!!!

Any additional comments?

I never thought I'd use these words to describe a character but the main female lead IS truly TSTL!! There are at least two situations that she went into that could have had her killed off instantly first she goes to a killer's house to investigat then she goes into an alley in both situations, she goes by herself ...! HOW SMART IS THAT??!! I thought that this was a good book based on the reviews.... NOT!!!!! And the narrator's pronunciation of the main male character's name it sounds as if she' saying 'RO-MAN" sometimes i can distinctly hear her say "RO-MERE". Which is it exact?!

loved it!

I'm a huge fan of Ms. Novak and I will continue to be! I love her writing style it never lets me down!

Great book

Very good! I really enjoyed listening!

Great book!

I highly recommend this book.

Save Me

This is another one of my favorite books.
Jasmine and Romain are wonderfully developed as H/h. Their story is the dark-side of child abductions, murders and abused. Their relation helps each other to heal from regret and to forgive their families. Ms. Novak focus point is on Romain's losses and regrets over his child and family connections. Jasmine's visit to New Orleans enables Romain to look at the outcome of his child's murder from a different prospective. Jasmine wants to solve her sister's 16-years disappearance and established a link between the two cases. This story is filled with so many suspects that you doubt everyone's invovlement with the cases.

Great characters but too scary for me

I really like this author and series but this particular book was a little too creepy for me. Maybe I'm a lightweight. I listen to audiobooks to fall asleep at night. Sometimes the book I am listening to gets mixed into my dreams so needless to say being tied up in someone's basement by a serial killer is not great dream material. I will continue to the next book in the series and I hope the author keeps writing mystery/thrillers. This author's thriller books are easy to listen to meaning I can follow along effortlessly and understand everything that is happening. That is my gauge for which audiobooks I am going to buy.

Great Read

Stop Me (The Last Stand #2) was a great read by Brenda Novak. Ramain's daughter was kidnapped and murdered, which sent him to life a solitary life after being released. He spent a few years in prison when he used a cops gun to get justice for his daughter. Jasmine is a psychological profiler who believe's Romain may have killed the wrong man. She ends up in a small-town in Louisiana looking for the killer. She is looking for the man who kidnapped her sister, who she believes is still alive. I absolutely loved reading this book and can't wait to read more by Brenda Novak.

Annoying Main Character

Interesting story but annoying main character. Good narrator! Worth the listen if you have Audible Escape.
