Brilliant, quirky twenty-three-year-old China Mack is totally satisfied with her carefully ordered, data-driven life. A computer prodigy who landed a coveted programming job at the cutting-edge tech company Cysnet before even graduating from MIT, China is happiest when following her routine: shower before coffee, pizza only on Mondays, bedtime at ten thirty sharp.
But then things start to get a little…unpredictable.
First Jackson Cooper—Cysnet’s rich, gorgeous, genius CEO—assigns China to a dangerous and highly classified project for a government defense contractor. Her sixteen-year-old runaway niece suddenly arrives in town, begging to move in with China. And then there’s her sexy but oddly unsettling new neighbor, Clark…
Quickly the Cysnet assignment becomes disconcerting—and then downright scary—as key staffers turn up dead. China suspects she’s being followed and isn’t sure whom she can trust. For the first time ever, she’ll have to follow her instincts, rather than logic, if she’s going to survive.

First and foremost, I love romantic suspense and Tiffany Snow is hands down one of the best out there in the genre. Follow Me has all my favorites: a smart hero, a kick ass, quirky heroine, murder, mystery, and of course romance. China Mack is easy to love. She is highly intelligent with 3 degrees from MIT, she wears glasses and t-shirts that celebrate all of her fave fandoms and she has a hard time in social situations. Reading social cues is not her strong suit. Jackson Cooper is the head of Cygnet, the company where China works and he asks her to collaborate on a project with him. China has only mildly obsessed over Jackson from afar for years and her interactions with him are quite funny. The project is cloaked in secrecy and soon people working on the project are turning up dead.
To make everything more complicated, China’s niece moves in with her which throws all of China’s everyday routines into a mess. Couple that with China’s hot neighbor asking her out and you have a recipe for disaster. China is taken out of her safe routines and comfort zone time and time again in this book. She is impressive because she never quits. She just fights through all the anxiety and stress. I love that about her!
As the mystery builds, China can’t decide who is really on her team and who is not. Can she trust Jackson? Will she pick him or the hot neighbor? This is what makes Tiffany Snow the queen of romantic suspense. You flip to the last page and you are screaming, “Are you kidding me? It’s over? You flip the pages back and forth as if they will magically appear and continue the story that had you so enthralled. I can’t wait to get my hands on the second book….Tiffany, are you reading this?
