Medium Crossing

by Lorelei Buckley

"Every Gift Has Its Price"

Scarlett Prowse survived a hard-knock childhood, and today channels the dead to pay her rent. But nothing prepares her for Holt Cavanaugh, an intriguing new client riddled with familiar inner wounds and questions about his brother’s murder. To retrieve answers for him, Scarlett channels the darker side of the afterworld. There, sudden heightened abilities on her part thin the veil between life and death, enabling her to obtain vital information.

Meanwhile, in the physical realm, a mystery person terrorizes Scarlett. Simultaneously, Holt’s shady street dealings slowly come apart. Her curiosity and his protective streak set them on an inseparable course where the afterworld and the underworld collide.

Scarlett and Holt’s nonstop journey through urban pockets, along with her jaunts to the hereafter cultivates a sensual romance, and exposes a tightly spun web of large-scale crime, mutually crossed paths, murder, and a relentless stalker with fatal intentions for Scarlett.

Reviews

[Jacqueline Smith · Rating 5 out of 5]

Here's the thing about Medium Crossing. It's a paranormal romance about a woman, Scarlett, who is a medium, who reads auras, and who crosses back and forth between the herenow and the hereafter to communicate with the dead. Her new client, the very sexy Holt, hires her to go talk to his recently murdered brother to figure out who killed him. I went into this story not really knowing what to expect, but knowing that I would probably enjoy it simply for the ghosts and supernatural elements alone. Lorelei Buckley does not disappoint.
The book kept me guessing at every turn. The characters were flawed, but likable, and I found myself rooting for Scarlett the entire time. I will say there is one scene that is a bit erotic and while I know several readers out there will simply love it, it's not really my favorite kind of scene to read. Nevertheless, I truly did enjoy this book and would certainly recommend it to paranormal readers (over 18).
