Storyline: GOODIntimacy: D.R.I.P (Don't Read In Public) / VERY SPICYEnjoyment: GOODBRIEF SUMMARYTyler is 26 years old and in college. One day he meets Susie who is 25 years old and also goes to the same college as Tyler. He meets Susie and is immediately attracted to her; while having a conversation and a study session with Susie, it quickly became more by the end of the evening. After this encounter, Susie immediately puts her guard up towards Tyler letting him know that she doesn't do boyfriends. The days that follows Susie and Tyler's encounters, it's clear Susie is secretive and doesn't reveals much about herself, this drives Tyler crazy as he wants a relationship with Susie and becomes so engross and obsessive about her. Volumes 1-6 shows the journey of Tyler and Susie's erotic affair and sometimes strange relationship as Tyler tries to get closer and Susie tries to leave her barriers up with a secret she is trying hard to conceal.THOUGHTSI don't like to compare my books in reviews by over shadowing it with other author's work, but I did ask myself, could this be the next `Beautiful Disaster' and `Fifty Shades of Grey'?I started reading this series in July of 2011, but decided to reread the whole series 1 through 5 to prepare myself for part 6. I forgot how good this series was for me. My comparisons to both books above gave me the same personal excitement while reading this series again. It has a college feel, someone with a past they want hidden that prevents them from fully giving, an obsession, full blown erotica scenes and a bit of spanking.In `Safe With Me' the characters were interesting and not just Tyler and Susie. The friends and roommates definitely added fun while experiencing their college experience. In the beginning, Tyler wasn't your super controlling alpha male; however, he has an obsession with Susie. As the story unfolds we start seeing Tyler become more confident by being more aggressive while trying to get what he wants from Susie. In the beginning Susie was the dominant of the two, but later the tables turn and we view Tyler's aggressiveness towards her.I have to say, Susie personally, drove me nuts with her secrets, she was like Fort Knox, and she would not crack to reveal anything about herself. Tyler gets the help of Joan, Susie's best friend/more-ish (hehehe) to try and get closer to Susie. Towards the end I think all of Susie's friends are trying to figure out what she is hiding and who is she really. Throughout the book, I was routing for Tyler, he is so sweet and sexy from his description. Also, the steamy erotica aspect of this book does not disappoint; I think part 4 was definitely the peak of the erotica between Tyler and Susie.
