Good mystery and sexy times!

This was kind of two stories in one… We have the romance between Eric and Jay and the mystery of who is killing people. When Eric is hired to provide security at the resort the Jay manages for his family, it doesn’t take long for them to fall for each other. The only problem is that Jay’s father insists that he can’t be gay and has provided him with a fake girlfriend.

This was a bit different from other paranormal books I’ve read. Someone or something is killing people and evidence that Eric has gathered points to it having been going on for years. This part of the mystery wasn’t really addressed but, in the end, I guess it didn’t really matter.

I didn’t guess who the killer was until nearly the end of the story so that was well done. There were some fairly gruesome scenes in this book and I’m not sure which would have been better – to listen to them being described as I did or to read them. Either way I think they might be a bit difficult for some readers to experience.

As far as I know, this is the first audiobook I’ve listened to that Samuel Mann and I think he did a good job narrating this story. Overall, I enjoyed listening to this book and would listen to more books performed by Samuel Mann and/or written by Elizabeth Noble.

She has a real love for a good mystery complete with murder and twisty plots as well as all things sci-fi, futuristic, and supernatural.

She has three grown children and now happily shares her little, brick house with two spunky Cardigan Welsh Corgis and their feline sidekicks. Elizabeth is a fan of baseball, basketball (go Cavs and Cleveland Baseball) and gardening. She can often be found working in her ‘outside office’ listening to classic rock and plotter her next novel waiting for it to be dark enough to gaze at the stars.
