Possessed

#1 New York Times Bestselling Author P.C. Cast

Being a psychic detective who can channel only negative emotions makes Kent Raef good at catching murderers, but bad at maintaining relationships. Then Lauren Wilcox arrives with a most intriguing case: her twin sister has been murdered and is communing with Lauren's spirit--and sharing her body. Raef's the only one who can track the killer and free the spirit. But soon he begins to wonder just which twin he wants to save...and why.

Haunted

New York Times Bestselling Author Gena Showalter

Artist Aurora Harper is convinced she's witnessed a crime--a murder so brutal she's repressed the memories, only to paint the scene by the light of the moon. Now she needs her new neighbor, Detective Levi Reid, to help her track down the victim--and the killer. Levi's dealing with his own memory issues, but one thing he knows for sure: Harper is meant to be his, and nothing can take her away from him--not in this life...and not in death.

Solving a murder and saving Lauren and her sister's ghost from a soul sucker, while getting it on with them both. Ghosts really aren't my thing and I'm not sure how comfortable I was with the possession sex thing.

It’s easy to see why P.C. Cast and Gena Showalter are NYT bestselling authors. I had great fun exploring the lure of paranormal romance with these two talented authors in AFTER MOONRISE. One of the greatest rewards of being a reviewer is that I get to discover ‘keepers’ for my growing library. These are two authors whose books I will be hunting down in bookstores to start a collection.

After Moonrise includes two loosely linked short stories by bestselling paranormal romance authors, P.C. Cast and Gena Showalter.

In P.C. Cast's Possessed, Kent Raef is a Psy investigator whose particular gift allows him to track negative emotions. When Lauren Wilcox approaches Raef to help solve the murder of her twin sister, Aubrey, Raef is puzzled that he can find no trace of the killer until the sisters reveal their unusual plight. Aubrey's murderer has stolen her soul and while the twins can communicate, each time Aubrey begins to speak of her death she is forcefully ripped back into the veil, taking part of Lauren's life force with her. To release Aubrey's tormented spirit and save Lauren, Raef must find the killer, and hope.

Haunted by Gena Showalter is peripherally linked to Possessed when Aurora Harper and Detective Levi Reid seek the help of the After Midnight Agency. On leave from the Oklahoma police force after attacking a serial killer, Levi blames the odd blackouts he is experiencing on stress. Holed up in his new apartment, nursing his anger over his suspension, Levi is not inclined to help his crazy blonde neighbour when she knocks on his door.
Harper is desperate, each morning she wakes to discover she has painted a faceless, gruesome murder scene and she is convinced the image is a repressed memory of a brutal crime. Worried she, or her best friend Lana is at risk of becoming the sadistic killer's next victim, Harper begs Levi to help her solve the mystery.

While each tale combines romance, raunch, mystery and action both stories have strengths and weaknesses.
I really liked that they were linked by the AM (After Mooonrise) Agency as provides a framework that unites the stories despite their differences.
I thought the plot in Haunted to be stronger, even though I figured out the twist fairly early on (can you guess which whispered line from a popular movie was running through my mind), yet the premise of Possessed had some interesting and original elements.
I preferred the relationship that developed between Levi and Harper to the uncomfortable triangle in Possessed, though Cast deserves credit for creativity. The sex scenes in both tales are heated, balanced precariously between erotica and fade to black.
The characters in each story are well defined given the constraints of the format. The male leads, are the tortured alpha's common to the genre and the women have core strength despite their weaknesses.

Fans of Cast and Showalter will enjoy this offering as should those who readers who read within the genre, especially if you have a thing for ghost stories. I would not be surprised if further collaborations based around the After Moonrise Agency are already in the works. ( )
