Keep Me Safe by Maya Banks (Book Review)

When Caleb Devereaux’s younger sister is kidnapped, this scion of a powerful and wealthy family turns to an unlikely source for help: a beautiful and sensitive woman with a gift for finding answers others cannot. While Ramie can connect to victims and locate them by feeling their pain, her ability comes with a price. Every time she uses it, it costs her a piece of herself. Helping the infuriatingly attractive and impatient Caleb successfully find his sister nearly destroys her. Even though his sexual intensity draws her like a magnet, she needs to get as far away from him as she can.

Deeply remorseful for the pain he’s caused, Caleb is determined to make things right. But just when he thinks Ramie’s vanished forever, she reappears. She’s in trouble and she needs his help. Now, Caleb will do risk everything to protect her— including his heart. . .

 
 

Before I read this story, I thought it would be kind of groovy to be psychic. Now, I have absolutely no desire to possess that “talent”. Let me tell you why….

1.) Rami uses her gift to help police/families find their missing loved ones. The downfall to her assistance comes with a steep price though. As she touches an object, she literally experiences everything the victim endures – every traumatizing moment. Even their deaths. (PASS)

 
2.) Tori, Caleb’s sister, also possesses psychic abilities. Her dreams (nightmares) foretell the future but with her gift, she can’t decipher when instances will occur. She can’t trust if her visions are just dreams or predictions of the future. As you can imagine, that would drive anyone batty. (PASS AGAIN) 
 
3.) Our last psychic in the story belongs to the whackadoodle. He can create a psychic link to an individual and control their actions. Yeah, who wants a serial killer with that much power. Can I get a HELL NO!!!!! They are already scary enough. (I have no interest in controlling anyone. “With great power comes great responsibility.” Yeah, I just quoted Spiderman.)
