The concept behind Deadly Obsession is solid and I really enjoyed aspects of the story. There is a solid mystery going on with who is stalking April, and the chemistry and banter between her and Jude keep the plot moving. I had some issues with believability with Jude being hired to protect April, and as much access as the police gave him. But I must remind myself it's fiction. I really enjoyed how I had absolutely no idea who the stalker was until Lea revealed him. Not even a guess. This made for a great mystery. The issues I had, was the story fell a little flat for me and never got to the level of excitement I would have liked. It never reached its true potentional. Also, as much chemistry as Judy and April had on the pages fell flat during the love scenes. I honestly wish it would have been a fade to black. Which is unheard of for me. I am giving Deadly Obsession 3 Boundless Stars, it was good and was a solid romantic suspense with a bad guy you will never guess.
