Dead of Winter (Cold Case Psychic #15) by Pandora Pine

 


Amazon Link - Available in KU
Goodreads Link





Happily settled into retired life, former Cold Case Detective Ronan O’Mara is made an offer he can’t refuse: Solve the thirty-year mystery of Skye Washington’s brutal murder. With a bevy of suspects ranging from the teenager’s family, friends, and a boyfriend with a shady past, Ronan is certain he’ll have this case solved quickly.

Psychic Tennyson Grimm has reservations over taking the case. He thought his crime solving days were at an end. As Ronan interviews potential witnesses, his psychic abilities aren’t powering the case forward as they used to in the old days. Ten’s qualms double when Skye refuses to name her killer and claims she doesn’t care if her murder is solved or not.

When one of the potential witnesses is murdered, the game is truly afoot. Who killed Skye Washington? Why? And most importantly, does the killer have others victims in mind?

Can Ronan and Tennyson solve these murders or will they be the next bodies to drop in the dead of winter?




My Rating - 5 Stars!

There's nothing quite like a Pandora Pine book to get me out of a reading funk. With Dead of Winter, I got exactly what I was hoping to get. It's a riveting tale, full of a murder investigation, danger and action. 

Ronan, Tennyson, and their large group of friends and family are back with a new cold case to be solved. You can expect plenty of fun family moments, as well as some serious discussions of the future. The kids all continue to charm me whenever they're around. Basically, I just love this large group of characters and am thrilled anytime I get to visit with them again. 

The writing is wonderful, the pace is fluid, and the storyline is intriguing and suspenseful. The murder mystery is classic Pandora, with plenty of twists and turns, including a group of not so nice spirits. That definitely makes for an interesting turn on things. 

Dead of Winter is an amazingly fun addition to the Cold Case Psychic series. And best of all, Pandora Pine leaves us with an intriguing twist for the future. Yay! Can't wait for more.

Ghost Walk (Haunted Souls #9) by Pandora Pine



Amazon Link - Available in KU
Goodreads Link




Ghost Detective Jude Byrne is enjoying a night out with friends and family on one of Salem’s famed ghost walks. It’s all fun and games until the last stop of the tour when he comes face to grave with Salem’s resident vampire, Kingston Gamble. The vampire tomb has several safeguards, including a grave cage, meant to keep him resting in peace.

Psychic Copeland Forbes senses a presence he’s never felt before in the old boneyard. Rattled by the experience, he rushes his family home, only to dream about the bloodsucker. Convinced the century-old creature of the night is waking up, Cope is anxious and on high alert.

When Kingston somehow escapes his fortified grave, it’s up to Jude and Cope to find the vampire. Along the way, they meet up with an old friend, Luca Pennington, who knows a thing or two about being Salem’s resident vampire.

Can Jude and Cope stop the vampire and the evil plan surrounding him, or will they become the newest attractions on Salem’s ghost walk?




My Rating - 5 Stars!


Ghost Walk is another fantastic book in Pandora Pine's Haunted Souls series. 

This story starts with the men on a Ghost Walk through Salem which results in another mystery for them to solve. 

This is a story with vampires, witches, and magic, entwined with heart, love, and humor. The mystery is fun, with a vampire and the hatred from his family. The mystery is intriguing and well developed throughout. 

I can't get enough of Pandora's writing. The writing style is great. Every book, starting way back with Dead Speak, is full of entertaining characters and storylines. The characters are lovable and charming and keep me on my toes. And with each book, and each new related series, the reader is treated to new characters and new developments in the relationships. I can't get enough of Everly, Wolf, and the velociraptors. They add all sorts of fun to the storylines that I never knew I wanted. Or needed. Seeing all the men as fathers is as delightful as can be.

Ghost Walk  is a read-in-one-sitting kind of book. Pandora Pine will keep you riveted throughout this fabulous ghost story and more of the men we've come to love along the way. Basically, you can't go wrong with these books if you like some humor with your mystery. 


And if you aren't familiar with my reviews or the author's books, take note that I do not love intense or scary paranormal books. Pandora Pine continues to be a 5 Star read for me with her paranormal light style. All of her books in this, and her other paranormal series, are filled with paranormal elements, loaded with mystery, and always includes danger for the main characters. That said, it is a light feel throughout, never too intense or scary.

Ghost Writer (Haunted Souls #8) by Pandora Pine




Amazon Link  - Available in KU
Goodreads Link





Ghost detective Jude Byrne is having the time of his life as a new husband and father. Lost in the shuffle of dirty diapers and late-night feedings is Cope’s birthday. Struggling to find a present for his husband, Jude is drawn to an antique, manual typewriter.

Unbeknownst to Jude, psychic Copeland Forbes has been planning to write his memoir. Eager to get started, Cope writes until he falls asleep. He’s woken by the click of the keys and a page full of song lyrics Cope knows he didn’t type.

When the typewriter continues to write, even with no one sitting at the keys, Cope realizes there must be a ghost in the machine. One who only uses hymn lyrics to communicate. Over time, the shy spirit begins to reveal clues to a powerful enemy lurking in Salem.

Will Jude and Cope solve the mystery of the ghost writer or will the evil consume them?
 




My Rating - 5 Stars!



Pandora Pine's Ghost Writer is a stellar addition to her Haunted Souls series. 

Having more of Jude and Cope is enough to keep me intrigued. Dear lord, these two are full of banter, humor, and sex. I love every damn moment with them. Their relationship continues to grow and every step of their journey is superb.

This story starts with them and a haunted typewriter. The resulting mystery is fascinating, and went into some serious issues. Let's just say that these serious issues are ones that personally anger me a lot, so I definitely enjoyed this story. The author spares no expense with the emotions involved and does justice to the issue.

I love Jude and Cope, their friends and the kids. Every moment spent with them is fabulous, and this one is a perfect addition to their journey. Their relationship is amazing, and the addition of Wolf just adds a whole new level to their fun. 

Ghost Writer is a fantastic story, as are all of the Haunted Souls books. I can't recommend them all enough.

Blurb

A mysterious vision sends P.I. Jude Byrne into a near-frenzy. The skinwalker who killed his father is about to strike again. With his family in danger, Jude knows he must return to the Navajo reservation where he was raised to confront the killer head on.

Psychic Copeland Forbes is a stranger in a strange land. He doesn’t know much about the Navajo culture or his place in Jude’s family. What he does know is that his gifts aren’t welcome, even though the spirits trying to speak to him may hold the key to the killer’s identity.

As the investigation progresses, there’s something niggling at the back of Jude’s mind, a shadowy memory that could stop this evil in its tracks. Can Jude recover this ghost of a memory in time, or will the killer claim his next innocent victim?

My Rating - 5 Stars!


Pandora Pine's Ghost of a Memory is a thrilling addition to her Haunted Souls series. 

Jude and Copeland. 'Nuff said, right? But, omg, this one isn't just Jude and Copeland, but also Wolf!

After a vision,
Jude and Copeland travel back to his old Navajo reservation. What follows is another great mystery, a skinwalker, and plenty of danger. Jude has to face his destiny, making for a riveting storyline. Jude's background, and everything leading to where he is now is a highly enjoyable read. It certainly all helps add to Jude's development in an unforgettable way.

As if I didn't already love Jude and Copeland enough, now we get to read about them becoming parents. And it's everything I could have asked for. And, omg, how I love the way the Pandora adds the babies into her books. 


The author does an excellent job making the Navajo culture come alive for the reader. We get to learn about the tribe, myths, and legends. As always, the writing is non-stop, combining mystery, danger, romance, and humor in a fantastic manner. 

The scenery and land is brought to life for the reader, easily placing everyone there in the setting.

Overall, Ghost of a Memory is sure to delight all of Pandora Pine's fans. She gives us another good mystery while also adding more layers to Jude and Copeland, individually and as a couple. I couldn't ask for more.

Psychic Tennyson Grimm wants nothing more than to find the missing girl. He’s haunted by the first case he and Ronan ever worked together, a child kidnapping that ended with a coffin instead of a happy reunion.

With only days to go until Ronan retires from the Boston Police Department, he’s putting everything he’s got into this case. When a suspect is arrested, Ronan doubles down his efforts to find the girl and bring her home safely.

Will Tennyson and Ronan be able to find the missing girl or will this case turn into a dead end?

My Rating - 5 Stars!


Pandora Pine's Dead End, the thirteenth book in the Cold Case Psychic series, is amazing. 

There is so much to love about this story. It has humor, romance, and a parent's worst nightmare of a mystery. I couldn't put it down. 

The author expertly builds a complex child abduction case and the mystery surrounding it. And, damn, it's a tough read at times. As a mom, it's too personal to even think about. Omg, the baby's blanket had me in tears. And that was just the first time I cried. Of course, for Ronan and Tenn, they can't help but to think about Everly throughout, which is definitely emotional.

The writing is fast paced and fluid, with a great storyline. To help with the horrific mystery that's going on, the author adds in plenty of charm and humor to help lighten things up for the reader. As always, the characters are amazing, and omg, Everly. Oh man, how I love Everly! 

But, take note that there is kidnapping and child molestation, so avoid if that's a trigger for you. 

Overall, Dead End is a terrific read. If you haven't read Pandora Pine's Cold Casse Psychic series yet, you need to do so. Each book is part of this amazing world revolving around trying to solve Cold Cases with the help of psychic powers. And each book is fantastic!

As the suspect list continues to grow, so do incidences of phantom chest pains for Cope. Convinced he’s not crazy, Cope enlists the help of Madam Aurora to make contact with the reticent spirit.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Ghost Pain is the sixth book in Pandora Pine's Haunted Souls series. If you've been following along with this world, you'll love this book. Damn, I love this series.

Cope and Jude are now dealing with Cope's injury, but they can't avoid getting involved in another case. What follows is another great mystery that is fun to follow along. You'll remain on the edge of your seat throughout this gripping tale full of twists and turns.

The writing is fast, sharp, and flows well. Each of the main characters are extremely loveable and continue to develop with each book. And the group of friends and family is always there, adding to the story.

Cope and Jude have come a long way since meeting. And, damn, they are super hot together. And their banter and wit is as great as ever.

As always, if you're a Pandora Pine fan, you will love Ghost Pain.

Ghost of a Chance (Haunted Souls #5) by Pandora Pine








Blurb

Psychic Copeland Forbes can’t get a good night’s sleep. His dreams are being haunted by two restless spirits, one crying out for his help and, the other bent on destroying him. Only able to communicate through dreams, the anguished spirit gives Cope just enough information to send him running back home to New Orleans to solve the mystery.

Ghost Detective Jude Byrne is against Cope going back to The Big Easy. It was trouble as long as the Mississippi that sent Copeland fleeing New Orleans in the first place but, if Cope insists on going, Jude is going to. To make the mission as safe as possible, Jude puts together a team of psychics, warlocks, and detectives he’s hoping are strong enough to keep everyone, namely Cope, safe.

When the spirits’ identities are revealed, tragedy strikes a member of the ghost detective team. Will help arrive in time or will they be left with only the ghost of a chance?

My Rating - 5 Stars!

Ghost of a Chance is another fabulous book by Pandora Pine. The fourth book in her Haunted Souls series, it is wonderful.

It has everything I've come to expect in a Pandora Pine book; mystery, danger, love, and fantastic humor. It also includes a sick and twisted psychologic game. This time, however, the action starts immediately, as Cope is having horrific nightmares.

If you have yet to try a Pandora Pine book, you need to start now. Her books are unlike most of what I read. Though I normally shy away from paranormal stories, these books have me addicted hook, line, and sinker. 

The author's writing style is superb, and the flow is perfect. As for the characters, they aren't just amazing, they are like family by now. 

Ghost of a Chance is a marvelous addition to this series. It's intense and scary with a whole lot of emotion. I can't get enough of this series.

Dead on His Feet (Cold Case Psychic #12) by Pandora Pine










Blurb

Cold Case Sergeant Ronan O’Mara wakes to a shocking midnight phone call. The body of a man killed in a shoot-out with the F.B.I. has vanished from the Suffolk County Morgue. What’s even more shocking than the missing corpse, is the identity of the second man apprehended at the scene. Mitchell Bond, aka, Tommy O’Neil was Ronan’s second-grade classmate and best friend until he was kidnapped in broad daylight, steps from his front door.

Even though psychic Tennyson Grimm hadn’t heard of Ronan’s childhood friend before now, he’s suddenly consumed by thoughts of the man. Thanks to Ten’s gift he knows twelve missing children linked to Mitchell Bond are alive, but he is uncertain of where to find them.

When Ronan is finally given the opportunity to speak to his long-lost friend, accusations begin to fly. Ronan is blindsided and begins to question everything he knew about Tommy, his kidnapping, and whether or not he could possibly have played a role in it.

While Tennyson races to put the pieces together to save the missing children, Ronan is forced to come to terms with a past he thought was long dead and buried. Can he set aside his own emotions long enough to put a stop to this deadly hunt?

My Rating - 5 Stars!


Dang. Just when you think Pandora Pine has written it all, she manages to create more stories that seem insane. And I love it all! Dead On His Feet is just amazing.

This one starts when a dead body goes missing from the morgue. Yes, you read that right. What follows is a hell of a crazy tale about missing kids and plans years in the making.

And Everly, of Everly! I just adore her to pieces!

Dead on His Feet has all the charm of Pandora's books; humor, romance, mystery, and more. Every time I open one of her books, I know exactly what I'm getting. It's always fantastic characters, crazy situations, and a light hearted feel. The danger is always lightened by the men themselves. If you haven't read her books yet, do so now!
