Description from the publisher:

Being psychic isn't as fun as it sounds....



Billionaire businessman Logan Mitchell is an empath.  While his talent of reading people's emotions has come in handy in the business world, it's about to drive him insane.  His ability triggers unbearable OCD attacks that leave him counting and cleaning until he collapses from exhaustion.  If his psychic power doesn't make him crazy, the ghost that's haunting him soon will.



Psychic medium Allison Gray is drawn to Logan the minute she meets him.  She shares his empathic abilities, and she can help him control the constant barrage of emotions.  But a harrowing incident from her past has left her terrified of spirits, and the ghost in Logan's mansion is doing everything in its power to keep her away.



Logan has given up hope of ever having a normal life, until he meets Allison.  But the ghost doesn't want to share him.  Even if she can overcome her fears, loving him will mean risking her life.



To Catch a Spirit is a steamy paranormal romance with a guaranteed happily ever after.

TO CATCH A SPIRIT is the first book in the Spirit Chasers series.  They will need to be read in the order of release.



WOW!  There was a lot of emotional punch packed into this story.  The subjects of fear, OCD, depression, and suicide were all written about with great empathy and understanding.



I loved Allison and Logan; their unique gifts brought them together, drove them apart, and helped to heal them.  They each have a best friend, Trent and Tina, who are perfect as the friends, but I think they may be perfect together in a future book.



The plot was entertaining and the supernatural element was well thought out and woven into the details of the contemporary romance seamlessly.



Narration:  Nicole Blessing has a pleasant voice, but a monotone delivery.  Even as she is reading the word, “excited,” she sounds as though she is thinking, “oatmeal.”  Listening could be a cure for insomnia, but is not entertainment for my drive.  However, she was doing better by the end of the book than she was at the beginning. 

I hate to say it, but a fantastic story was brought down by poor narration.



Note:  While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy via getfreeaudiobooks.com, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
