Series – GhostWalkers
Main characters – Rubin Campos, Jonquille
Listened to audio narrated by Jim Frangione. Easy to listen to but I would have liked a little more differences between male characters.
Rubin Campos is a Ghostwalker, he’s a Ghostwalker and a psychic surgeon and can manipulate lightning. He’s frustrated with his team’s over protectiveness and dictates on his life. Rubin and his brother return to their mountain home regularly to give medical aid and for Rubin to experiment with his abilities.
Jonquille is one of Whitney’s first failed experiments, her abilities will eventually kill her. She draws lightning and energy from those around her, but can’t control it. She’s lived a solitary life researching lightning and psychic doctoring in order to protect others from her out of control power. She also has a gift for healing and was a trained assassin by Whitney..
Jonquille heads to Rubin’s mountain home to try and head off those she believes are hunting him. When Rubin and his brother arrive early and find her in their home they have to decide if she is friend or foe. Rubin knows Whitney paired them, he just has to convince Jonquille to give them a chance.
There’s a lot of action and intensity as Jonquille and Rubin learn to trust each other and use their abilities together. I enjoyed the give and take between them and how their abilities complimented each other so well.
I understood Rubin’s frustration when others tried to orchestrate his missions to keep him protected, but he came across as petulant and sullen about it. He’s a brilliant man why didn’t he come up with a solution for the problem that everyone could live with, rather than internally bemoaning it so often?
This story takes a few dark twisty turns toward the end, opening up more possible heroes and enemies for future books.
Tragic pasts, sweet love story, kick ass fights, charming and wiley mountain people and a few surprises to entertain you.
