Tag Archive: Mine Series


I’ve always enjoyed reading the “Mine Series” by Cynthia Eden, and her new addition to the series, “Mine To Have” is no exception. With a lot of twists and surprising revelations, Cynthia does an amazing job of bringing the past into the current to a new future, all the while holding a tight grip on the storyline, and does not even falter for a second.

Saxon Black has been working undercover for years for the FBI, and it reaches a point where he forgets who the real Saxon Black is. His final assignment before he quits the world of undercover is to rescue a hostage and wash off his hands and walk away to a new life waiting for him.

Easier said than done! Saxon barges in to save Elizabeth Ward and ends up with feelings he’s forgotten he had. Elizabeth Ward has no idea there is a contract out on her head, and that she should have been dead along with her parents, a couple of years ago.

The danger and the adrenaline keep Saxon and Elizabeth in close proximity and they end up falling for each other and saving each other’s lives. One of the reason I love Cynthia Eden’s writings is that no matter how short or long her books, she always manages to create a good character sketch. She tends introduce them in the previous books and we get a glimpse of what’s coming ahead and already have a rough outline of their personalities. I, for one love that it adds more depth and individuality to her characters

Mine To Have is a rollercoaster ride of betrayal within the law enforcement; secrets buried deep and the true identity of Elizabeth Ward. It is a passionate ride of lust and love, possession and jealousy and evil and good. Mine To Have (and Mine Series) are stories of relationships built through hearts, friendships cemented with unconditional trust and protecting families and their own with every breath of their beings.

Received a copy from Netgalley for an honest review.

“I Wanna Shelter You…But With The Beast Inside, There’s Nowhere To Hide, When You Feel My Heat, Look Into My Eyes…It’s Where My Demons Hide…..”  

“Don’t Get Too Close…..It’s Where My Demons Hide…”Imagine Dragons”

That is what Drake represents! And the cover of Cynthia’s fourth book in the “Mine Series”, is an amazing blend of passion, despair and possessiveness. I‘ve always had a soft spot for Drake…the quite and the mysterious one, but with deadly execution…whether he was protecting Skye or thinking that Noah has gone bonkers falling in love with Claire.

Despite Noah, Logan and Drake being friends in mercenary, Drake had a history more deep than the other two. He was the one too close to his nightmare aka Anna Jean. He was more emotionally connected to Anna Jean and the betrayal is more vested and painful. His possessiveness, total disregard for his life over Jasmine’s breath, and his sacrifice – loved Drake to the soul. The bad with the good, the demon with a heart to do the right thing and stand by unconditionally, one of the best characters I had the pleasure of reading.Image

Jasmine was a total surprise package of vulnerability and courage. Her background and what she had become was totally kick-ass and I was so charmed by her – thanks Cynthia for etching Jasmine’s character so well. I’ve always being a sucker for any woman who rises beyond trauma, with sheer determination and positivity to create a niche in this world.  Overcoming her traumatic childhood, with a hope of finding the missing pieces of her family, Jasmine was just perfect.

The common background that connected Jasmine and Noah was an emotional read. The history between Jasmine, Victor and Saxon pulls at your heartstrings as much as Victor’s despair that Jasmine loves the dangerous Drake than a plain safe accountant or a doctor tickles your funny bone. The bond between them is something that you’d wish you had it too.

My recommendation is to read the first three – ‘Mine To Take’, ‘Mine To Keep’, ‘Mine To Hold’, and before long you would ‘CRAVE’ for Drake and the flow of the stories would be easy to love and enjoy. I hope Cynthia Eden gives Victor some much needed sleepless nights and company to chase those nightmares away 😉Image
