Mehso-so

Inspired by author‘s great grandmother Edie and her twin violet who author discovered were “avid spiritualists and regularly conducted séances”. I enjoyed most parts of this story and the mystery of what was happening with medium women disappearances. Not everyone liked the romance here but I enjoyed it. But it was okay not great executed story for me🤷🏽‍♀️Predictable in some areas. 3⭐️It has higher rating in GR.

All the stars! This is a paranormal suspense set in Sacramento in the 1800‘s. It was fun going back home to NorCal with this book. This is a debut author and I will definitely pick up her next story. This is a fast paced story about twin sisters who have paranormal talents that try to destroy them. Colorful cast of characters and setting. #scarathlon #TeamMonsterMash @StayCurious
