    About this ebook

    In this suspenseful romantic mystery, a troubled police officer meets a woman determined to bury her past. Their whirlwind romance seems idyllic until secrets collide with murderous intentions.

    Charlotte police officer Jordan Monroe is used to being in control. Ever since his father died, he has provided for his mother and sisters and even hired his two brothers-in-law to help run his successful construction company. On a chance business trip, however, he meets the one person who throws his life into a whirlwind — Jaynee.

    Jaynee has lived a tragic life and has sworn off dating. That is until a rugged southern gentleman lands in her seating area, refusing to take no for an answer. From the moment they meet, Jordan sweeps her off her feet, assuring her that happiness exists. But can she really escape her past?

    Five years later, Jordan finds Jaynee on their back porch with a gunshot wound to the head. While Jaynee lies in a coma, Jordan has to go back to their beginning and figure out what went wrong. Did he push his wife to the edge, or have past secrets come back to haunt them?

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "You'll be swept off your feet along with Jaynee as she discovers the man of her dreams. You'll be drawn into the drama. And you'll flip the pages fast as Jordan must desperately figure out the truth in time. I was and did!" — New York Times bestselling author Jaime Rush

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "SHE BELONGS TO ME is definitely a good suspenseful read. Ms. DeSousa is a talented author and I had no problem in connecting with the characters. The story displayed a realistic relationship between Jordan and Jaynee." — The Romance Reviews

    • 5/5
      loved it! amazing author
    • 3/5
      Three stars is just a tad generous. I felt they focused too much on the romance and not enough on the suspense. When reading the description of the book, they built up a lot of excitement for the shooting and the need to discover who had done it and why. Unfortunately, the story dived into this back story romance.

      Jordan was impulsive and controlling. I guess we are supposed to be fine with it, because he is rich and buys her things? I mean.. really?

      Anyway, they rushed through the actual detective work and didn't put nearly enough effort into the actual description of the book.

      She Belongs To Me (Southern Suspense, #1) by Carmen DeSousaJaynee and Jordan are having problems in their relationship. Jaynee is hiding some secrets from her past. One day Jordan comes home and finds her unconscious with a gunshot wound to her head. At first it looks like an attempted suicide. Jordan begins to investigate, as secrets are slowly revealed, it seems someone may be out to killer, and possibly Jordan too. A fast paced story of suspense. I did like Jaynee and the story line. I liked the surprises and the hidden secrets and the suspense. I feel that those who enjoy suspense/drama with a touch of romance will enjoy [book:She Belongs To Me|13294574].
