These are always a good read. The characters are likeable and the plots work and it all fits in nice with the overall series.

I am not a fan of the “If you really love me you’ll follow me when leave you” trope. Otherwise, good romantic suspense.

this world is getting fleshed out with some cool discoveries and a new range of characters and even some more towns. Some cameos from Lydia and Emmett but this is its own story. Again we have a male character that knows his mind and like Emmett is a fool when it comes to finding the right words. which I kind of like because in reality men never know what say.

Ghost Hunter
3 Stars
Aurora Springs Guild Boss arrives in Cadence City to win back his former fianceé, Elly St. Clair, but the pair soon find themselves embroiled in a mysterious case involving blue ghosts, a deadly drug and a malicious killer.
This installment in the series starts out slow but picks up pace toward the end.
Cooper and Elly's romance is on the weaker side mainly due to the fact that they have very little chemistry and their breakup was caused by a serious lack of communication.
The investigation is also rather run-of-the-mill, but the tension and suspense ratchet up in the last few chapters and the resolution is satisfying.
In sum, an OK read but the author's Quick and Krentz books are better.

A steamy adult mix of Science Fiction, Crime Drama and Romance. Jayne Castle is a well, written, prolific writer and writes under the names of Jayne Anne Krentz and Amanda Quick. In Ghost Hunter, she has created another world with different rules, different abilities, but with the same intrinsic human nature as we share today. I found this story enjoyable and the dust bunny reminds me of my cat Patch, except Patch doesn't bring me flowers or have six legs. If you like light Science Fiction Romance, be sure to put this on your bucket list to read.

Being a child of the age of contractions - can't, don't, wasn't, etc. - the writing style in this novel seems slightly dated to me. This is only a slight problem, one which doesn't appear too often in the work. Everything else about the book was very well done. The story is set on the planet of Harmony where psi energy and the manipulation of the aforementioned energy play a major part in the plot. It's well worth the time it takes to read.
