Watch Me

De: Brenda Novak

Narrado por: Allyson Johnson

Teenagers Sheridan Kohl and Jason Wyatt were parked at the lake in Whiterock, Tennessee, when a stranger wearing a ski mask shot them both. Sheridan lived but Jason died - and the stranger was never caught. Even though Sheridan's family moved away right afterward, she's never been able to put the crime behind her.

And now that "someone" doesn't want her to come home.

Because of a new development in the case, Sheridan returns to Whiterock. But when she's attacked a second time, it's only because of Jason's stepbrother, Cain Granger, that she survives - and Cain's the last person she wants to face. If not for their history, if not for her, Jason wouldn't have been in that parked car.

Cain knows that whoever killed his brother probably isn't a stranger at all. But figuring out that person's identity is easier said than done - especially since the killer seems to be taunting them both: "watch me".

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Strong characters bring the escalating suspense to life, and the mystery is skillfully played out. Novak's smooth plotting makes for a great read." ( Publishers Weekly)

Just as good as the last.

Sheridan lost her heart and her virginity to Cain Granger, but after it turned out to be a one-night stand, she goes with Jason Cain’s stepbrother and both of them get shot but Cain’s brother ends up dying. Sheridan and Cain haven't seen each other in twelve years but when Cain finds her almost dead in the woods on his property, he instantly becomes her protector. I love how the story ends with them together.

Ms. Novak!!!

Ms. Novak never let's me down! this book was great and so is the series so far..

Editing is very poor.

The last sentence of one chapter and the beginning of the next were often seemingly done in one breath. A couple of times the last word was actually clipped by the announcement of the next. Also at least once, two sections of a chapter ran SO close together that I could figure out what was going on, since the second part was in a new location and in someone else's view. it was like they were trying to cut time wherever they could. Very irritating and unprofessional. Otherwise a great book.

Annoying heroine couldn’t finish

She was so annoying and childish she set my teeth on edge. Couldn’t finish listening

Fairly good book and storyline

This book was pretty good although Cain seem to lack the interest to draw me in. He was far to distance. But I like how Brenda has a way of catching you off guard with who the villain is.

Great Read

Watch Me (The Last Stand #3) was a great read by Brenda Novak. Sheridan was a teenager when a stranger wearing a ski mask changed her life forever. She was in a parked car with Jason when the masked man shot them both. Unfortuantely Jason died even though Sheridan survived. Sheridan and her family moved away but even the distance wasnt enough for Sheridan to put it behind herself. Sheridan only returned to her hometown because of a new development in finding the killer. She was attacked but survived because of Jason's step brother Cain. Seeing Cain reminds her that she was only with Jason to get to Cain. I enjoyed reading Cain and Sheridan trying to find the killer as they taunt them both. I can't wait to read more by Brenda Novak.

unfortunate

unfortunately I can relate to this story. my family seems to always say how mom loves one more than the other and try to setup the other siblings. I really liked the story. thanks for sharing

It’s the same story

I have over 12 books by Brenda Novak and all of the love interest sound exactly the same. Tall, overly handsome, mysterious, heart throb. I wish she would switch it up.

Glad it was on sale

Uh oh. This was pretty awful and had that "first draft" feeling. For a book marketed as romantic suspense, I have to say it fails in both categories. The leads talked at each other and I never felt any kind of connection, so the inevitable declarations of love had nothing to back it up. The suspense? Well, it was obvious who the killer was the first time he spoke and any reasonably intelligent 5-year-old would have picked up on it. On top of all that, the narrator gave the heroine an annoyingly perky voice and the hero a too-slow drawl that made him sound dull witted. Can't imagine I'll be trying any more Novak or anything else read by this narrator.

I tried to like it

I hate to give a harsh critique, so I'll try not to do that here. Maybe it was the narrator (she has a nice tone, but sounded more like a news broadcaster), maybe it was the outrageousness of some of the events (the police alone gave me a headache), but I just couldn't get into this. It was a struggle.
