Spooked

I loved this book as much as the first one in this series!! Normally paranormal isn’t my thing, but I LOVE Elise Noble’s books and this series is fantastic and I love them as much as the others. It was a great read with mystery and great characters. I would give more stars if I could!!

I don’t usually read paranormal books but being an Elise Noble fan I gave her Electi series a chance. Spooked is the second in this series. The book is filled with intrigue, humor and mystery as will as ties into the first book Cursed. I enjoyed reading Spooked and look forward to the next book.

Kimberly is not an ordinary girl. She is currently a busy wedding planner with a phenomenal business. The not so normal part... she can see ghosts who can tell that she is “different” (she is one of four Electi), and the ghosts have been told that Kim has been sent to help them. The interesting part… she doesn’t really know how to help them so she tries to ignore them! Reed is an ex cop, now a PI, who is living out of his car after his sister disappeared and he paid off her debts so she could come home. When a ghost helps to save Kim’s life, she feels she has not choice but to try to help the ghost. Kim hires Reed to help her help the ghost. Awkward much?!? Kim and Reed are an unlikely duo that is perfectly matched, but they need to get out of their own way to see if the spark between them can ignite into a full, fiery romance. Plus, Reed doesn’t believe in the paranormal! This story is full of twists and turns and leaves you wanting to know so much more about Kim, Reed, all of their friends, and the ghosts! Another Elise Noble grand slam home run! This is definitely a “just one more chapter” kind of book that will keep you up way past your bedtime! It is impossible to put down! HEA with NO Cliffhanger, but in a true Elise Noble form, she has other books that tie in to Spooked perfectly! This is Book 2 in the Electi Series. Some characters from Book 1 visit in Book 2!!! You can read this one first, though, and not miss anything. I can’t wait for Book 3!!!

Wow! From the very first page I was hooked. Great read, fun characters, interesting plot twists, can’t wait for the next in series! Linda Long I have voluntarily read an advance copy of the book.

With Spooked, the newest instalment of the Electi series, Ms. Noble surprises her readers with a lighthearted story that both meets and exceeds the expectations of her long time fans and entices the curiosity of new ones. The book has plenty of successful ingredients: it has captivating, three dimensional characters, a rich plot, the right amount of suspense and, last but not least, displays an accomplished and talented writing style. The subtle irony that is typical of Ms. Noble’s style pervades the narration, making the book extremely enjoyable.  Spooked, like the previous instalment, Cursed, is not a typical “paranormal” book. Instead, the ghosts that populate the story are cameo characters that give life to a collection of hilarious and unpredictable situations. Both protagonists, and the secondary characters, are well depicted and intriguing. Skilfully jotted at the beginning, their personality is gradually unraveled throughout the story, a fascinating discovery that makes the reader enjoy every single page.  Kimberly, the heroine, is introduced at the beginning of the book as a frilly wedding planner. As the plot develops, however, she demonstrates a quick mind and remarkable leadership skills. She is also kind hearted and selfless, taking risks and investing time and money trying to bring a serial killer to justice. Reed is a peculiar knight in shining armour. An ex-military and ex-cop, his PI practice Is struggling to take off, despite him being smart and competent. Having paid all of his estranged sisters’ debts, he is broke and currently homeless. Despite his circumstances, he keeps up his spirit and doesn’t spends time feeling sorry for himself. Time and time again, he proves to be a fighter, always refusing to compromise his values and dignity. In addition to this, he is also generous, loving and protective towards the ones he cares for. Rounding out the story, and adding depth to the narration, the book also contains a slate of vivid side characters, both human and not, that enrich and add extra layers to the tale. In the end, Spooked is the perfect companion for a few hours of intellectually satisfying and relaxing entertainment. Just like many other of Ms. Noble's books, ever since I finished this last instalment, I simply can not wait to get my hands on the next one! I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book. Opinions and comments are solely my own.

Kim who is still coming to terms with her gift, learns the hard way that she cannot turn a deaf ear. A simple drink with a client, totally rattles her world. Grab your drink/snack because you won’t want to put this down until the end, with all the suspense, intrigue, & romance. I am truly enjoying this series, don’t miss out!
