Fairly decent urban fantasy. This is the start of a series that will feature the same couple. So it doesn't have a typical HEA but a HFN. I expect that the couple will have their problems as the series continues.

The ghost set up was okay but I felt like the rules and psychic abilities of the heroine were a bit arbitrary. Plus everyone she met seemed to have psychic abilities. It seemed a bit too much. There was too much sex and not enough action on the ghost saving front. The sex scenes disrupted the flow of the story and other than maybe the first where they got together were just unnecessary. There was no sexual tension that they were fulfilling. Really just no need for them in this book that should have been more focused on the action.

Also there was something off about the writing style something about the way the characters thought to themselves that was annoying.

There were good elements. I liked the way that ghosts were everywhere and she couldn't concentrate to drive and the way that she had problems with breaking the law and such to fulfill her ghost laying duties. Although even here while she was breaking a law the outcome was just too easy. Let's cut back on sex scenes and add more tough ghost laying stuff to ramp up the tension and interest.

Don't know if I'll continue with the series or not.… (plus d'informations)

Solid addition to the series. Way too much sentient cats for my taste. I'm beginning to the think the people of Celta can't figure out how to wipe their own butts without assistance from their fams. I know I seem to be in the minority but they are sort of used as a type of 'deus ex machina' a little too often.

In other news, the planet of Celta keeps getting richer. I like how the author had gone into the second generation. I liked the angsty suffering of the hero and how well the author showed the closeknitness of the culture of Celta by the way that Laev's bad choice was still haunting him after years. I liked the toughness of the heroine.

I did feel like the romance was not as intense as it could have been. The H and the h spent very little time together.… (plus d'informations)
