Super(natural) start to the new Anna's Nightmare series

Dr. Anna Roberts runs a clinic for the homeless and the poor in Kansas City, Missouri. One night, as she's walking home from work, she is saved from being run over by a beer truck by a huge, dark stranger named Zedediah.

This isn't the strangest thing that's happened to Anna. She sees ghosts that haven't passed on to the next realm after death. And she releases (banishes) them to travel on.

Zed, as Anna calls him, seems to know way too much about Anna for someone she's just met and strange happenings start to escalate around him.

This is an unusual story and I liked that about it. It's not your run-of-the-mill ghost story. And Zed has many surprises waiting for Anna.

I liked the characters, drawn with a generous hand, so that I wouldn't mind calling most of them friend.

The story is funny, suspenseful, scary at times. There's just a tinge of romance. I am not usually a huge fan of series books but this first book in a new series caught my interest and held it all the way through. And it ended at a good spot, without having a nasty cliffhanger.

NOTE: I received this book from Atthis Arts through Net Galley in exchange for my unbiased review.

A wonderful first novel that was filled with ghosts, adventures and romance. This debut was everything that the buzz is saying. The suspense and the writing of the author draws you in and you will not be disappointed.

I did not know. If I was going to enjoy this novel but I'm so glad I gave it a chance as I really enjoyed it.
Anna Ford runs a free clinic in Kanas City. When returning home one evening she was saved from being run over by a stranger. Winded and badly bruised Jed escorts her home and soon Anna becomes involved in Jed's dangerous world.
A good mix of ghosts, romance and adventure to keep you turning the pages I'd like to thank Net Galley, Atthis Arts LLC and the author Sarah Fleming Mountford for my ARC in exchange for an honest review

Review from Jeannie Zelos book reviews

Genre:  Romance, Mystery & Thrillers
 
I requested this book not fully reading the description – hooked by the intrigue of the 3,000 year old feud. I tend to avoid too much “ghost” reads, not because I don’t like them but because I get nightmares very easily.....Fortunately it wasn’t that sort of read as I discovered when I finally braved it ;-)

Anna is lovely, but spent her life avoiding the ghosts she can see, and medicating at night so she doesn’t get them in her dreams. Then suddenly Jed comes into her life, literally saving it when he pushes her away from an accident that could have killed her. He knows more about the ghosts that haunt her, and with his arrival they step up their action. Its a kind of chicken and egg situation – did Jed come because of the ghosts or did they arrive because of him? Whichever it means she has to learn very quickly how to use her talent to banish them, something she knows she can do but hasn’t. Now if they’re to stay alive she needs to learn fast how to do it multiple times.

They try to get away from the ghosts, returning to her childhood home but the ghosts follow them. Turns out there’s a connection to Jed’s past and someone wants Anna. Jed’s holding many secrets, telling Anna bits of his past but they’re in such a race against time that sometimes the info comes out only as new dangers are occurring.

Its the first of a series and the romance angle is slow, but that's fine by me, I like a slow burn solid romance, which this seems to promise and I look forward to the next read.

Stars: Four, a great start to a new series.

Really surprised at how much I enjoyed reading this book. Having a fear of Spirits and ghosts made this book a challenge to start Very easy read, , very likeable main characters with a hint at a possible romance running through the chapters The storyline gripped me right to the end, , and I would certainly read more books written by this author

You'll be captivated till the very last page. Dark. Engaging. Very well written.
