About book After Moonrise (2012)

Averaged out to 3.5 starsAfter Moonrise is a company that deals with hauntings, possessions, and other supernatural mysteries. Their employees are not your normal detectives. They each have special "gifts" which allows them access to the other realm. They take on cases of unsolved murders, talking to the ghosts of the victim and their loved ones, as well as helping ghosts move on to the afterlife. Possessed is the first book in the After Moonrise novel, and is written by PC Cast.In Possessed, Kent Raef's world gets turned upside down when Lauren Wilcox enters his office at After Moonrise. Although the police suspects it was accidental, Lauren knows her twin sister was murdered. She knows this because Lauren's twin, Aubrey, is communicating with her. And that's not all. Aubrey is still being tortured by her murderer even after death. Kent must find a way to save both sisters from this killer before its too late.I really liked the start of this novel. I thought it was pretty solid and a good lead in to what the novel is about. It was intriguing and I liked the idea of psychic detectives that use emotions to find "the bad guy". But where the storyline for the romance was taken, was just a bit too weird for me and I didn't like it. Paranormal Romance novels are my favourite genre. They are my go-to books and so, not liking the romance in this book has really disappointed me. Everything else though I really enjoyed.3/5 starsHaunted is the second book in the After Moonrise novel, and is written by Gena Showalter.The book starts with us meeting Detective Levi Reid. He isn't exactly sure why he moved to his new residency, in the bad side of town, only that he experiences blackouts and one day found himself in his new place. He suspects these blackouts have something to do with being suspended from his work for attacking a suspect. But when his neighbour knocks on his door and asks for his help, all thoughts about his own problems vanish.Aurora Harper thinks she's a witness to a brutal murder. The reason she only "thinks" this is because when she wakes in the morning it's to find herself with a paintbrush in her hand and a half finished painting of the brutal scene. Her best friend Lana (who works for After Moonrise) convinces her to talk to their neighbour, who is a "normal" detective, and ask for his help.I really enjoyed this novel. It kept me guessing all the way and I was surprised with the way it ended. I also liked the romance. I'm a sucker for when two people from completely different upbringings get together. Aurora with her formal gowns and Levi with his foster homes couldn't be more different, and yet they are perfect for each other. Probably because Aurora, despite her upbringing, is no princess. I adored Aurora, she has spunk. And Levi is very alpha like, which is the perfect ingredient for a paranormal romance novel.4/5 stars Review- After Moonrise is a story written by P C Cast and Gena Showalter. After Moonrise contains two Novella length written stories.Possessed by P.C Cast and Haunted by Gena Showalter. Both stories were adult stories and I enjoyed them both. The two stories are entwined throughout and both with the protagonists in both stories connected.Possessed and haunted were an easy and interesting read. With the protagonists being in both stories I found the novella’s flowed at a steady pace. Haunted is a little longer in length then possessed and I enjoyed this a bit more so. The storyline certainly piqued my interest and would love to have seen it a little longer. I enjoyed the characters much more so in this story. I have read both authors ya books, and must say this is certainly a good introduction in the adult side of their writing. Gena Showalter books I have read previously have enjoyed them all. Haunted by Gena ShowalterI definitely loved this story more than the other one – I’m a romantic at heart and love a wonderful love story filled with a mixture of everything that is certainly unpredictable. Lots of twist and turns and so many possibly that will have you baffled lol. No spoilers ! Lol The writing was fluently written and I enjoyed the characters and storyline. Id rates this book 4 on its own. Possessed by P.C. CastPossessed was a good short story. Id r ate this book a 3 1/2 rating. I liked it but didn't fall in love with the writing and the characters and twin thing I was a bit held back on. A good read and great intro into P C Casts writing. Overall rating for the book 3 ½ stars. .

Both stories are a waste of time. You are better off not reading this book.
