I really liked the blurb for this book when I read it, and when it came time to read it, I really hoped it would live up to its premise. Sadly, to me, this was just another one of those mildly entertaining mysteries with a hint of the paranormal that starts out too slow, has too many loose ends left dangling for shock value alone, and you find yourself simply finishing reading because you might as well.
I’m not usually a fan of love triangles, but the love triangle in this book really had me going. The different kind, yet equal amount of tension between the FMC and the two men she’s torn between had me more riveted than the actual plot of the book. And that’s not a good sign for the book itself. If I wanted an angst-filled story about a sexy love triangle, I’d read a romance novel.
Nonetheless, I felt compelled to give this book 3 stars for the well-written characters and chemistry amongst the members of the love triangle. It’s too bad the mystery wasn’t as compelling.
