Nikki Griffin is a bookstore owner and though books are her passion, her desire to help other women often takes over her life. Her eye for an eye approach to teaching dangerous men a lesson empowers her, but will Nikki go too far?

Save Me from Dangerous Men has a good main character, as Nikki Griffin is a strong, determined, and complicated woman. Her desire to save other women from their tenuous situations is interesting, but her no holds barred and lawless approach is not without issues. The idea that Nikki could fly under the radar from authorities is somewhat believable, as not many men would want it to be known that they were bested by a woman, but her recklessness says otherwise.

I was not drawn into the story, however, and struggled with the overall plot. Save Me from Dangerous Men was more character driven, but the reasons for why Nikki decided to save women was not fully explored. Nikki was interesting enough for me to want to find out more, so I look forward to reading more in the future.
