Book Summary →
Secrets of the Dead
Jessica Coltrane is a diehard sceptic who believes ghosts and paranormal activity are nothing more than a figment of an overactive imagination. That is until she finds herself locked inside a haunted house with the enigmatic paranormal investigator C.J. Dowling.
Born with the ability to see and speak to the dead, C.J. Dowling thought investigating a haunted house would be a job like many others. He’s prepared for anything—except smart and sexy Jessica.
Working together in close quarters, C.J. and Jessica discover it isn’t only negative tension between them but sexual as well. Giving in to their desires seems like a good idea until they wake and find the spirits thought otherwise. They are trapped with the ghost of a child long forgotten, an amorous entity threatening Jessica, and a powder keg of a spine-tingling mystery that might just be better left buried.
What readers say about the book🧐
Jessica worked as a writer on fluff pieces that said haunted places were a joke. CJ was a medium and was called in to help the deceased move on if he could. He and his affluent family were at odds because of his abilities and their doubts of it. Jessica and CJ knew each other from working but when they were assigned the same house to work, things really heated up both with the spiritual world and the intimate worlds on more than one plane. This fun and exciting adventure takes Jessica and CJ on a roller coaster of a ride as they uncover the secrets of their assignment while discovering parts of a disturbing past that is too close to home. They experience danger, intrigue, ghostly suitors, rejection, fear and an intense love. Fun readI received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
