Haunting with a Ghost by B. Ripley

5.0

4.5 stars!

This us my first book by this author and it definitely won't be my last. I really enjoyed it and it was a great way for me to finish the series. I have lived every book in this series and have found some amazing new to me authors. It has to be one of my favourite multi author series, and it also included one of my favourite genres; PNR, with ghosts!

Bennett, the ghost, is fed up if being a Ghost, and he wants to join his family in the afterlife. He made the decision to stay, and now that everyone he loved has died, he's lonely and wants out. Death, who was a great addition, is helping helping him. He can't open the portal to his afterlife, so Ben has tried to die again. This can be very triggering for some, but it luckily didn't effect me too much, which I was happy about. I think him being a Ghost helped, but it was still hard to watch. It's not mentioned in the blurb, but it mentioned in a content warning page at the start.

Landon, is a Ghost hunter. He runs a YouTube channel called The Hunt, and investigates different haunted places. His Best friend is his business partner, and let's just say that he's an ass! I felt sorry for Landon as he was pressuring him to find a Ghost, or either they will just fake it. Landon refuses to do that, so he sets about seeing if Hadley Mill is haunted. He loves history and the investigation side, and that ghosts is involved is just a good bonus.

When Landon arrives at his Airbnb, which just happens to be across so the Mill. He doesn't expect to share the house with someone, but he happens upon, Landon. He can see him, and seems to think he's just a regular person. It was sweet, watching them get to know each other, and made me grin. He was talking to the ghost he was looking for and he was no the wiser.

You could see the chemistry between them and you know they would only get closer. I loved watching Ben finally open up, and start to experience things he couldn't in life. His backstory is sad, and I hate thinking if all the time he spent alone. I loved that little memory thing ghosts can do, but it would make ne feel even lonelier. Landon, though, seemed a little naive at times.

As usual, I was excited to see how the story would end. It was great seeing how each author overcame the ghost hurdle to make this a HEA.

I received a copy of this book from Gay Romance Reviews, and this is my honest review.
