P.S. I Spook You by S.E. Harmon
5.0

WOW! I am so impressed right now! It was a first read by a new author and I never thought that it'd turn out to be such an amazing book. I wanted something light and funny, but this was just something else! As corny as the idea seemed at first, I absolutely LOVED what Ms. Harmon did with it.

I’ve never been a big fan of second-chance romances, either in books or movies. Well, color me surprised by how much I liked this one. Rain (and I’m STILL cracking up at that conversation with his sister Sky where they were debating the possibility of their parents naming a hypothetical third child Earth) and Danny were just so perfect for each other. It was clear from the start that getting back together wouldn’t be easy, but it was just as obvious that they were still in love. The UST between the two of them was so delicious, but it had nothing on the actual sex. Whew! Hands down, those are some of the hottest sex scenes I’ve ever read.

The mystery was so well written it blew my mind; for the longest time, I had no idea who the culprit was. The supernatural angle was different from my usual reads but still amazing, and I loved how Rain began to accept his abilities in the end. He was the perfect narrator for me, too - smartass and sarcastic, and damn funny. I’ve no idea how many times I laughed out loud while reading this book, but it was A LOT.
And how perfect was that ending! A HEA is kind of expected in this kind of story, but it was just so sweet. Imo, it left some room for a continuation, if the author decided to make this into a series instead of a standalone (YES, PLEASE! I want more Rain & Danny goodness!), but it was satisfying nonetheless. A big stamp of approval from me.
