Rowan Gray

Grave Seas

Rate this book
Maddie Graves-Winters and her new husband Nick officially have everything … including the perfect honeymoon. They’re going on their very first cruise, and they just happen to be guests on the Bounding Storm.
Rowan Gray and Quinn Davenport are basking in the love. They’re looking forward to planning their own wedding … and moving into bigger digs on the ship, something Quinn managed to wrangle thanks to his position as head of security.
Both couples find themselves involved in a dark mystery when the female half of another honeymooning couple goes missing. Between out-of-control, rollicking women causing trouble at every turn and a rather mysterious man who appears to be on vacation alone, there are multiple suspects to focus on. That includes the husband, who seems to be acting out of sorts.
Maddie and Rowan both have abilities but they’re leery about admitting it. They’re going to have to work together if they expect to solve this case, though, and that means trusting each other with their darkest secrets.
It’s going to be a leap of faith … but both women are determined to find a happy ending for this particular missing woman. They simply have no idea how they’re going to manage it.

Note: This is a crossover between the Maddie Graves and Rowan Gray series. It is set after the completion of both series.

Love both couples, mystery, and a little Magick for good measure! Would love to see a little more from them both down the line. Another fun read!

Entertaining Paranormal cozy mystery series

This is an entertaining paranormal cozy mystery series. A great cast of characters and an entertaining storyline. This particular book is a combination of two series from this author. The Maddie Graves series in the Rowen Gray series. Maddie Grace is young woman who can see and speak to ghosts and also happens to be psychic. She is married to Nick winters her best friend since kindergarten. The other character is Rowen Gray a young woman who used to be a photo journalist until newspapers started laying off photographers and making reporters take her own pictures. She had to find a new job and got a job on a cruise line as a head photographer. She is engaged to Quinn the security chief on the cruise ship she works on. Rowen has the ability to see omens in her pictures that she takes. Death omens comments describing dangers and other new omens every so often that she’s learning to see. Maddie and Nick are on their honeymoon on the cruise ship that Rowen and Quinn work on. no spoilers you will have to read on to see what happens but needless to say it is a adventure and a mystery with a few twist interns that you might be able to figure out around the end of the book. So radon and see how Maddie and nicks honeymoon goes and how a friendship begins between these two couples. Enjoy.

Maddie and Rowan

The wedding is done and it's honeymoon time for Maddie and Nick.. still schmaltzy as ever.. they've been upgraded to the best suite on the Bounding Storm by Nick's parents and are enjoying themselves but seem slightly distracted.. something is missing..

Rowan and Quinn are trying to relax into this trip.. newly engaged.. schmaltzy as always.. and so far it's looking good.. no special events or theme's to drive them crazy.. so what's up?

What's missing is a case! That's rectified all too quickly when trouble strikes another honeymooning couple.. Ben and Lindsay were at the ship nightclub.. Ben turned in early and Lindsay vanished.

With a few more holiday makers creating their own trouble it seems that Lindsay's disappeared into thin air.. but how?

The two couples need to get together; with Maddie and Rowan's special abilities and Quinn and Nick's detective skills it's only a matter of time before the truth is out and the perpetrators face a special kind of Hell!!

“I figure the honeymoon will never end with us.”

These crossover books that join two different series together are the best of both worlds. You catch up with old friends and meet new ones! Nick and Maddie meet Quinn and Rowan for some high seas adventures. Lots of fun, love and excitement with enough magic to go around twice. Awesome read! Enjoy!!!

LOVED this!!!

I was already missing Maddie and Nick, so this book soothed the separation anxiety! This honeymoon crossover brings them into contact with Rowan and Quinn; now, let the mayhem begin! The interactions are fun, the mystery is made complex with numerous false trails, and the wrap-up is sublime! I like it when evildoers truly get their just desserts!

Love your stories

I have really enjoyed following your couples through all their experiences. Especially when you blended them together. My husband died at 51 and he was the love of my life. That was 16 years ago, when I read your stories I feel connected and think of life long ago. I feel sad but also happy. Thank you

Grave Seas: A Maddie Graves an d Rowan Gray Mystery

I love this Author as she writes wonderful books and characters. She even puts together two sets of characters together. I highly recommend all her books and different series. I have read over 60 of her books and loved every one of them. Diana Romano

Loved this book and I am glad she writes cross over books mixing the characters to prolong their life span. I hate to see characters end. Lily Harper Hart (Amanda M. Lee) has a way with keeping you reading. I laugh and cried reading this book.

Blah

I haven't read any Rowan stories but even she knows that Nick & Maddie are too disgusting for words. This story didn't have a ghost for Maddie & neither woman did anything with their abilities. Just a blah story......

Another good mystery

Okay, I’m not going to lie. I totally didn’t see the answer to this mystery and was completely surprised. This was such a Nick and Maddie type honeymoon story, too. Lots of love and involved in another mystery

I do enjoy a good crossover story and this fits the bill perfectly. Maddie and Rowan making friends over being special and magical. Quinn and Nick bonding over loving these special women. Interesting story and could not stop reading it.

The meeting of Maddie and Rowan turns into a mystery. Of course, the story that the husband of the missing woman tells is a lie.

Great book

Why Amazon insist on 20 words for a review via kindle, I don't know. Especially when I just want to say that I really enjoyed this book.

The storyline was really good and I enjoyed the interaction between the couples but did not like the way they took the law into their own hands.

Good read

Thus was a pretty good stand-alone.... there was humor, angst, mystery, possible danger, romance, a major surprise ending, and love. Highly entertaining.

Great Cross-Over Story

Maddie and Nick are on their honeymoon on board a cruise ship where they meet Rowan and Quinn. Four great characters from two different series. Then a woman goes missing. She cannot be found, even with a thorough search of the ship. The clues do not add up. It kind of reminded me of Abbott and Costello's who's on first? Who is the bad guy? They are all acting bad. Great mystery. Great ending.

Maddie and Nick on their honeymoon on the Bounding Storm.

Rowan and Quinn, engaged and moving into a larger suite. Rowan has her father and uncle in her life all the time now, and a new grandfather.

Then a new bride disappears on the ship, and Rowan and Quinn and Nick and Maddie must work together to find out why.

And the solution to this problem is not what anyone expects.

I am sorry this is the end of both the Maddie Graves and the Rowan Gray series. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading both.

I will miss them.
