Ghost Seer - Book Review

Ghost Seer (Ghost Seer #1)
by Robin D. Owens

What is it about:
When her eccentric aunt passes away, no-nonsense accountant Clare Cermac inherits more than just a small fortune. She receives the gift of communicating with ghosts. While Clare may not believe in spirits, it’s hard to overlook the shadowy talking dog appearing on her bed or spectral cowboys tipping their hats to her in the streets of Denver. And when she locks eyes with sexy—and living—Zach Slade, there’s certainly no ignoring him either.

A former deputy sheriff, Zach is leaving a painful past behind in Montana for a new life in Denver as a private investigator, a job that has him crossing paths with beautiful Clare. Not that she minds. After the restless ghost of a Wild West gunman demands her assistance, Clare finds herself needing Zach more and more—and not just for help.

What did I think of it:
Sometimes it's hard to write a review.

I want to write a positive review, because:

This was a well written book.
This was a good story.
The characters were believable.

...

But it wasn't the story I wanted!

I wanted something like The Ghost Whisperer, but this book was more focused on the relationship between Clare and Zach, and about Clare trying to accept what's happening to her, than it was really about communicating with ghosts. It was a good story, but not the story I expected and hoped for when I picked this book up.

I might try something else by Owens, but this book was too Paranormal Light for my tastes.

Why should you read it:
It's well written and a good story in its genre.
