This book had ghosts, a cold-case team made of likable characters, and some steam. All things I enjoy immensely. But it did have something that I usually don’t love which is second chance romance 

 

What I love about a romance is the pinning, the falling in love, the little things the characters learn about each other along the way (especially in plots/genres where romance isn’t the main focus. If I am going to care about the romance, I need to a reason to do so). With set ups like Rain and Danny… Their romance already happened off page, so even thought I’m told they are in love… I didn’t really get to see it. 

 

As far as a thriller/mystery I did enjoy this book and I will be listening to the next in the series via audiobook (I read the print of this one) as I am interested in the ghost whisperer/agent team that will be playing a part in the future! 

 

(If you are a fan of a romance/ thriller crime combo I do really recommend Quine and Costa Series. The author did a fantastic job of balancing the romance with the thriller/crime genre.)
