Some places are too evil. Some places should be left alone.
Austin Cole has it made. Star of the hit television show Spirit Chaser Investigations, he has become the world’s most famous paranormal investigator. Although hard work, a talented investigation team, and favorable genetics have something to do with it, it’s his lack of fear and willingness to take risks no one else will that make Spirit Chaser Investigations cable’s number-one show. When a ghost-hunt-gone-wrong seriously injures his best friend and lead psychic, Austin is forced to find a replacement for a team member he considers irreplaceable.
Casey Lawson can’t catch a break. She’s been on her own since she turned eighteen and is scraping by as a part-time psychic and cashier at a New Age store. When a desperate Austin Cole calls her up and offers her a position on his team, has her fortune finally changed?
He’s a control freak; she’s stubborn and opinionated. It takes time, but when they finally realize they’re working on the same side, everything clicks, both on and off screen.
Just when things are looking up, a new threat emerges. Over the years, Austin has angered plenty of demons, and one of them has set her sights on him. Now he’s the one in danger, and it’s up to the team to rescue him from the riskiest investigation of their lives.
I received The Spirit Chaser for free. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
We’ve all seen those ghost hunting shows on tv made up of skeptics and technical gurus. The validity of some of the claims is laughable. I thought a book about a similar show would be an interesting read. I took a chance on an unfamiliar author and was rewarded for my choice.
Spirit Chasers Investigations is a hit show comprised of a very different type of team. At the helm is handsome and charismatic Austin Cole. His skills are mainly the fact that he seems to have no fear and keeps his body in peak physical condition. The rest of the team is where things get interesting. If such people did exist, this would be the perfect formula for a ghost hunting team. Casey Lawson steps into her position as a psychic and paranormal communicator when the show’s ratings are soaring. At first, Austin is not convinced of her abilities, but is soon proven wrong in the most disastrous way. Once Casey is proven an asset to the team, a little romance begins to brew.
The real hook for me wasn’t even the romance, which is an oddity for me. I loved the way the team worked together and how they each had their own special gifts to bring to the show. The “Big Bad” who weaves it’s way into the lives of the team made me nervous, scared, and even down right furious at time. Perfect feelings for this genre.
I now have a new author to add to my list of favorites. This is listed as the first in a series so I look forward to going on another hunt with the team very soon!
