Laurel “Rory” Chappel has lived her life moving from one place to another. Staying awhile then going to the next adventure. Never settling in one place for too long, playing a GHOSTLY GAME with herself. She doesn’t know why she does this, but for the strange nightmares that are haunting her and a past she doesn’t remember, she is happy, especially after she meets a handsome stranger.
Gideon “Eagle” Carpenter is part of a team of GhostWalkers in San Francisco and though guilt eats at him for a past he believes was his fault, he will do whatever is necessary for the family he has made of his fellow GhostWalkers. Even if it breaks his heart to do whatever that deed is. The sins are beginning to wear him down, until he hears a distant laughter. A laugh that hits him deep in his wounded soul. The answer to his prayers or a danger sent by an enemy.
GHOSTLY GAME is indeed a game changer. Gideon and Rory are an amazing couple and though he blows the trust he had built up with her, the love that is growing is undeniable. Gideon has to rebuild the relationship that was broken and slowly he does when he opens up to her, giving her pieces of himself he didn’t want anyone, especially her, to know.
There is a lot that is happening in this action-packed book that takes readers back into author Christine Feehan’s GhostWalker series. In San Francisco’s urban setting there is action at the bar Rory works at, the apartment complex she lives in including the death of a police detective, as well as in the very streets. Though she usually feels the need to run, she finds herself putting down roots and making close friends in the complex she lives and worries the threat she feels could harm them.
The most intriguing part of GHOSTLY GAME is that with the nightmares/memories, Rory finds out that she is indeed a GhostWalker--one of the originals that was deemed imperfect and lucky enough to escape Whitney’s clutches. We get to revisit the heartless Dr. Whitney and find out how she escaped him. It is thanks to Paul, the psychic surgeon for the team, who is able to help her with her asthma and the damage to her lungs (thanks to Whitney) as well as save her very life after she is kidnapped. Read GHOSTLY GAME to find out how and why!
All the members of the Urban GhostWalkers, including Javier the one who fears he is a psychopath, and the other men and women who rally around Rory, knowing she is Gideon’s, thus one of their own.
A remarkable read from cover to cover. GHOSTLY GAME is a hot/sweet romance with action, danger, and intrigue--all written in a style that sets Ms. Feehan’s books apart from any other writer.
It’s fight or flight in this sultry, suspenseful GhostWalker novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan.
