Publisher's summary

When a hunter becomes the hunted, it’s time to send in the LSP!

Welcome to the Lost Souls ParaAgency, where agents work together to ensure the safety of humans and prevent exposure of the paranormal community.

The assignment - stop a spooky spirit from terrorizing a reality television ghost hunter.

Amira Walker and Lex Dimas are back as a mystery-solving duo in this second installment of the Lost Souls ParaAgency series.

Lex wants nothing more than to hang up his agent status and take Amira to a deserted island for a romantic getaway, but his manipulative grandfather has other plans. Once again coerced into taking an assignment he doesn’t want, Lex’s top priority is Amira’s safety - whether she appreciates his overly cautious behavior or not.

This is Amira’s first real assignment as an agent, and she’s out to prove that her skills as a sleuth can far outvalue her skills as a witch. But suppressing her witchy side isn’t the only complication for this assignment. She has to come face to face with Samuel Chase - the jerk extraordinaire who will exploit anyone to gain notoriety as a ghost hunter. As if that wasn’t bad enough, Lex’s overprotectiveness is putting a damper on their newfound romance.

Can she solve her first case without resorting to magic and find a balance in her romantic relationship?

Cute ghost mystery

I enjoyed the story. Cute ghost/murder mystery. Had not read the first one, but was not lost in anyway.

Fun book!

What a fun book to listen to! It kept me wondering throughout the book and did not disappoint at the end!

Cute

I received this book for free. I am voluntarily posting this review and any opinions expressed herein are my own.

This is the second book in the Lost Souls Paragency series. More or less, I would say this is a standalone book = although the epilogue creates a bit of a set up for the next book in the series. I have not read the first book in the series and I think it might have helped as I felt like I was missing a bit here and there related to the characters. Overall, it was cute.

The narrator, Carrie Coello, is someone who I have listened to before. She is always enjoyable.

Cute Story!

I totally enjoyed listening to this story. The plot line is filled with solving the mystery of a haunting and the continuation of a budding romance between the two main characters. I had to laugh at the hilarious inclusion of a snippet regarding the meddlesome aunts at the very end. The narrator did an excellent job in bringing this story to life. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

A Romantic Ghostly Paranormal Mystery!

This was my first K.M. Waller's book. This is the second book in the Lost Souls ParaAgency, a romantic ghostly paranormal mystery. You can listen to this story as a standalone, but I believe it is better to listen to the first book before for a better understanding. Amira and Lex are great characters. I loved to follow them in this adventure. The cast of supporting characters is great. The storyline is fun, intriguing, entertaining, and filled with mystery, and twists and turns. Carrie Coello did a great job with the narration. #AudiobookUnleashed

Started off slow but got better

I almost stopped listening to it in the beginning. I just couldn't get into the story. Once they went to the house to find the ghost, it got better. It wasn't a bad story.

3.5/5 Typical Cozy Paranormal

3.5/5 Lost Souls ParaAgency and the Ghostly Reunion by K.M. Waller

Narrated by Carrie Coello

Run Time: 4 hrs and 34 mins
Summary:

Amira and Lex take on a case of creepy haunting (minus the creep factor).


Additional Comments:

- I think the series has potential, but many times in the book, I got the “nothing is happening” vibe. Maybe it was a missing sense of danger. The hauntings never seemed dangerous. The characters got a few bumps and bruises but that’s about it.

- If you’ve read the back cover, you’ve read 90% of the book.

- This is the second book in the series. While I don’t think hearing the first is vitally important, it may have helped with knowing the main characters better.

- Characters 3/5: Amira and Lex are okay, but they don’t seem to have a lot of chemistry. The conflict between them (his overprotectiveness, her dying need to prove herself) didn’t really play out in more than words and a few “well, the Walker women are stubborn” sentiments. Sidekicks didn’t have enough page-time to be useful. The suspects read like a clue game. (The cook, the girlfriend, the unlikable victim, the assistant, the hot stable guy whose also a repressed actor)

- The book gives off cozy mystery vibes, but there’s no cute animal companion. I feel gypped. It needs a surly but charming cat.

- Amira’s sister Ris has potential. She’ll likely get her own book later in the series.

- Clean read. Normalizes being a witch, but leaves the whole spell thing (desire spell, guilt spell) and séance running at the harmless parlor trick level. The characters don’t feel the slightest bit guilty about using magic to suit their current needs.

- Performance was suitably perky. (That fits Amira stylistically.) Characters could be distinguished. Would certainly listen to the narrator again.

Conclusion:

Kind of disappears into the genre for me (doesn’t stand out), but I think it will appeal to fans of cozy paranormal. Will likely continue the series.

The Fun Continues

I read this book and loved it and then I listened to it and I thought the narration was great. I'm not a big audio book person because I often find the narrator very dry and boring but this wasn't the case with this book. Such a wonderful book and wonderful series. Great characters!

Good romantaic paranormal mystery

I enjoyed this book. I did not listen to book one. This one does stand alone. However, I am sure there are some points muissed by not reading book one first. I have not read any other books by KM Waller but will in the future.

The narration was great. Carrie Coello did a great job. I have not lsitened to any other books by her. I will watch for other books she narrates.
