Die for Me

Critical Praise

"This tale sent more than one chill down my spine. I have to admit that I admire the author, Karen Rose, for all the research she must have done to complete such a book as this one. She must have endured nightmares from the torture research. I say this because the author perfectly described the devices used, a few I have never heard of. I stayed up late reading this story, but it was worth the loss of sleep, Karen Rose is a master of her craft."

"Die for Me is a tense, well plotted and thrilling read that kept me turning the pages long after I should have gone to bed. A sleepless night is a small price to pay for reaching the edge of the seat conclusion that is surprising, satisfying and still manages to be just right. I will gladly pay that price for one of Ms Rose’s books any day of the week."

"This is by far the best romantic suspense I have read all year. There is never a dull moment and I never wanted to put this book down. When it ended, I was both sad and elated. DIE FOR ME is the type of book that leaves you with a sense of accomplishment and joy, while at the same time bereft that it had to end. This author has moved right up to the top of my Auto Buy list!!!!"

"Though I'm fairly new to Karen Rose, I'm glad that I stumbled across her. Her novels are complex and emotion-packed, and feature well-rounded characters. Die for Me oozes tension-filled suspense and horror. I simply couldn't put it down and will definitely be checking out the author's backlist in the near future."

"The author has created a truly creepy villain, a sociopath whose murderous tendencies are right off the charts and whose motivation and ultimate agenda will literally make your skin crawl. Rose takes readers deep into his twisted and vindictive mindset as he meticulously and arrogantly moves forward with his horrifying endgame even after his scheme begins unraveling. At times the story becomes a bit overstated, but Rose's wonderful style, her pacing, her attention to detail, and her flair for creating an incredibly clever, yet also a truly disquieting plot cancels that out. Die For Me is arguably Rose's most harrowing romantic suspense and a must read for her ever-growing legion of fans."

"Karen Rose's track record is amazing and she has done it again – another extraordinary story. Every time I think she has found the ultimate twisted villain, she finds another to match or surpass the last one. And pain!!! I thought her last story carried the ultimate in pain done to the victims, but she has found a new and equally as horrible way of dying in this one. It’s chilling, i's splendid, and it's exciting. Hard to put the book down - and it's a long book, too. But the pages just whiz by. Loved and adored Vito and Sophie.

"I haven't read as riveting a novel in a long, long time; there was no way to put it down without calling upon the utmost will power. I liked and connected with so many of the characters that I could relax for a while before being jerked back into the world of the serial killer. DIE FOR ME is too good to miss; just block out lots of time for it. It's worth it -- and worthy of an RRT Perfect 10."

"Die For Me is a suspenseful tale that made this reader think about the book long after the book was over. The characters and the story that carried them are memorable and the killer, downright scary and looked upon with horror and fascination. Karen Rose created a sick and twisted mind in her killer and balanced the utter evil, with the goodness of Vito and Sophie. And, even knowing how the story ends, this reader slept with a light on!"

"Karen Rose gives you a taste of fear you won’t soon be able to shake. When you’re all alone in the dead of night, with just a small lamp burning beside your bed, you’ll have to keep reminding yourself that Die for Me is a fictional tale, and the villain isn’t lurking outside your window."

"From the opening killer sequence to the climax, DIE FOR ME is an exhilarating action-packed serial killer police procedural with a romantic subplot that feels a bit out of place although it adds to the tension as the murders turn personal for Vito. The story line is fast-paced and filled with twists in a deadly triangle as the killer sets up the final scream being the archeologist. Karen Rose provides another terrific suspense thriller."
