The Good Guy:Haint-working runs in Dan Miller's blood. Not everyone can help the restless dead cross over, especially when the haunting threatens the Living. But the death of his parents six years ago forced Dan to give it up in exchange for raising his brother and sister, all the while struggling to keep their rural NC farm afloat.So when the flamboyantly goth Leif Helsvin shows up on Dan's doorstep looking for help with an evil necromancer named R�nar, Dan's first instinct is to turn him down. With two teenagers to look after, he's already got all the trouble he can handle. Besides, the sexy Leif is too much of a temptation, and Dan is firmly in the closet.The Bad Boy:Pierced, tattooed Leif never has sex with the same guy twice. It keeps things simple, especially since his oath to stop R�nar has him constantly drifting from one town to the next.But this time, it looks like Leif is going to need help, in the form of the very down-to-earth Dan. Since Nice Guys are off the menu, Leif just has to keep his hands to himself for as long as it will take to stop R�nar's latest scheme. But as Leif finds himself drawn deeper into Dan's life, he quickly realizes he's not just in danger of breaking the rules, but breaking his heart as well.… (plus d'informations)

Jordan L. Hawk just plain old rocks as one of the best m/m paranormal writers today. I have read most of her books and have never once been disappointed. Hainted deals with so many intertwined topics from folk lore to raise two siblings without parents. This story is set in the mountains of North Carolina which is steeped in American and Native American folk lore and paranormal beliefs. Strong characters that are believable and a story line that just may be possible grabbed me and wouldn't let me go. The main characters and the well developed secondary characters don't just walk around laying down animated dead, they hurt and bleed and yes love. There are some great plot twists and surprises that keep the story moving at a nice pace. I loved Taryn and her kick ass attitude. It is good to see a strong female character. Dan and Leif were wonderfully flawed characters that pulled strength from their hurts. If you are looking for a walk on the wild side of a paranormal story, this book is for you. (

omgthisbook! @.@

I hate ghosts. I hate zombies. I hate horror.
4.5 stars. Do I make sense? O.o

~~*~~

There are some editorial problems, but not enough to dramatically affect my rating. The ending is a bit predictable and I while was hoping for a darker, more complex finale, I really can't complain about the existing one either.

"Sweethearts" and "babies" caught me by surprise, but - whatever. I've seen couples like that in real life and I thought they were the cutest. My Egyptian-looking classmate and her Scottish highlander prince in a kilt, for example. He frigging adores her and calls her "my love", "my life", "my heart" and "my goddess".... and how the hell does it not come out as the cheesiest names, I have no clue! I melt... ♥ *sigh*

So there you have it :) 4.5 stands. (

This is one of those surprising packages. One of those books that for some reason I'm reluctant to start, but once I do I can't imagine why...

A paranormal story that has nothing to do with vampires or shifters is becoming a real find. But this one delivers in spades. The paranormal aspect is very well written and simply set in everyday life.

The characters are well-rounded. Sexy and very lovable, they took me on their journey. The extra's in the book all had their places and roles to play as well. Overall this was a great read and I'm glad I found this one. (

4 stars. Really liked the paranormal aspects in this story. The 'walkers' and 'haints' hooked me good! Loved the creepiness factor of it all. I did have one thing I wanted answered ( it seemed like everyone knew about walkers and their powers. so does that mean the police also know? and what was there take on it? there was one scene when the MC's where avoiding detection in a cemetary, so it made me curious.)

Loved both main characters and would a loved a little more one on one time with them after everything happens. (but that's just me being greedy!)

Read this awhile ago, so don't remember a whole lot other than one character doing something I found very close to morally wrong.
