I was immediately whisked off to another world and was so engrossed in the book that I did not realise I finished it as quickly as I did. Thrilling read.

I am not sure what to think of this book. It seemed scripted and rushed. Adam seamed to come into play at the right time. Jessica has isolated herself because of the type of dreams she has. I would like to know the reasoning behind the serial. Killers actions and why he picked to follow Jessica.This was just a slow read for me. I am bummed! The premise for this book caught my attention .

I received this ARC from the publisher via Net Galley at my request for a honest review. The opinions written are solely my own. Thank you Net Galley!

A psychic dreamer and a serial killer, sign me up. Eyes Wide Open was my introduction to author Cynthia Cooke and I am hooked. The story unfolds and Cooke really establishes a sinister tone that stays throughout the story. A complete page turning mystery with a touch of romance.

I didn't realise this was going to be such a short book and I wondered how the plot would play out in such a short time scale. The book was fairly short, around 100 pages probably, but it packed an awful lot into that. As you might expect, it was fast paced from the start. I feel it could have done with being slightly longer as it did feel a bit rushed but an enjoyable short read.

Don’t be fooled by the average cover; Eyes Wide Open is an action-packed, exhilarating story with an intriguing plot and genuine and engaging characters. This novella length tale managed to convey an abundance of information I just over 100 pages, and kept this reader enthralled till the very last word.
