Hated the narrator's choice of voices for some of the characters. It really detracted from the listening experience.

Ghost Hunter was definitely not as interesting as the first two books in the series and I probably would have dnfed it if I hadn't been listening to the audiobook version.
Elly was supposed to be a strong-willed heroine, moving to the big city and starting up her own small business because her insta-love romance crumbled - but she just came across as having a huge chip on her shoulder. Every time Cooper spoke, she had something petty to say about the Guild or Guild Bosses or some crap, making her really annoying, repetitive and unlikeable.
Cooper wasn't much better - having absolutely nothing in the personality department. There weren't even any memorable side characters, so it made the book kind of pointless to read. The romance between the H/h was rushed and forced, more lust-driven than anything else and definitely one of the weaker points of the book.
The storyline was forgettable and didn't add anything to the series. Unfortunately, this will be added to my #AbandonedSeries shelf.

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.

I have really been enjoying this series. I'm going to give it 4 stars because I liked the plot. However, the audio reader was not to my taste - the sex scenes were cringe inducing as it sounded like my grandmother reading to me.

Not one of her best, but it’s light, silly fun with a paranormal twist.

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.
