Love at First Haunt: A Ghostly Paranormal Romance (Haunted Ever After Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.2 out of 5 stars 1,310 ratings

A psychic who's afraid of ghosts…
Is that even a thing?

For medium Allison Gray, it certainly is. She's seen dead people for as long as she can remember, but a harrowing incident from her past has left her terrified of spirits.

The one in Logan's house is no exception.

Logan Mitchell is an empath, and while his gift of reading people's emotions has come in handy in the business world, it's about to drive him insane. Literally.

If his psychic power doesn't make him crazy, the ghost that's haunting him soon will.

He's given up hope of ever having a normal life, until he meets Allison.

She could be the answer to his prayers, but even if she can overcome her fears, loving Logan will mean risking her life.

If you like steamy romance with a spooky twist, you'll love this heart-melting ghost story!

    Mediums, fate, and ghosts…all wrapped up in a steamy happily ever after!
    I have to be honest, the moment that I found out that Logan was rich, I almost put the book down. I have read enough of those that they all seem to be the same. However, I powered through because a lot of the story was still based around Allison and am happy I did. Logan is not the billionaire I have come to expect with similar stories. While at Logan’s first party in his new mansion, Allison has a terrible interaction with a ghost, but she has also picked up on some very strong feelings from Logan. Logan is an empath but does not realize it. He believes that his quirks are just that, quirks. Fate puts these two into a tailspin within the story until they literally collide and come together over a female spirit that haunts the mansion who thinks Logan is her husband. Allison and Logan both have a history and are completely broken, but just when you think love is all lost, these two actually complete each other. Super sweet and a great read!

    I loved reading about Logan and Allison. Logan is a billionaire who just moved into an older mansion. He's having his first party here when he catches the eye of a beautiful blonde woman who He's never met before. She is also like a breath of fresh air because she does not put off the greedy or dark vibes that so many of his guests put out. As he heads to her he sees her bending and looking like she's speaking to someone on the stairs. But no one is there. Then, in tears, she turns and runs out the door.

    Allison hasn't seen a ghost in almost a year. This time, the lady spirit absolutely drained her. So she had to get out of there. Her best friend Tina, called and asked why she left so quickly, so she told her what happened.

    Allison is psychic. She also is a healer. She helps to clear bad energy and emotions from people. She felt something for Logan, but she doesn't trust rich men. She was hurt by a rich ex who left her with nothing. So she feels she can't trust any man.

    Logan doesn't know who she was but he can't stop thinking about her. When his best friend Trent, who is also his lawyer says he will try to find out who she is, he feels relief. At his next fundraiser, he is surprised and almost overwhelmed when he sees her. She is stunning. He needs to meet her and see if his feelings are real.

    These two are amazing together and learn that they both have special abilities. They both have battles to win. Can they fight off the forces that they encounter alone, or will it take them both together to win this war?

    So good! Lots to open here. I need more now! Ready for book 2. Enjoy

    Logan and Allison are both empaths that find solace in each other from the chaos they endure because of their gifts. They each have some growing to do with personal issues and fears and help each other through it.
    I absolutely loved their devotion to each other, even though they are both reluctant to have a relationship they realize they’re ment to be together and work through their issues with communication. <spoiler>Though the random insecurity Allison gets at the hospital seems out of character. I like that she still talked to Logan and he helped ease her insecurity by being so open with her.</spoiler>

    This is a new author for me but wow am I impressed, Carrie Pulkinen really knows how to weave a story that holds your attention. Allison is a physic who is drawn to Logan and logan is slowly going insane because he can't control his gift of empathy. Wonderful characters, ghosts what more can you ask for in a book color me impressed and bring on the second book.

    Fluffy little romp with gratuitous sex. Would recommend this for teens were it not for the unnecessary sex scenes. They added nothing to the plot. The writing is good, I can see where with some more experience the author will be
    very good. The protagonist is kind of wishy-washy and can't seem to make any decisions without changing her mind a very short time later. Traditional gender behavior roles, which come across as a bit condescending. Also, "love" seems to be entirely too dependent on attractiveness. It was ok, a distraction, but not my genre preference. It only got four stars because the descriptive sex, IMHO, wasn't necessary.

    The details and reality used In Creating this story was fantastic. The people were easy to relate to and everything kept me turning the pages as fast as I could. Each had their own issues and struggles to deal with. Embarrassing thoughts caused both to doubt themselves and how others would view them. Great read!

    Allison and Logan have more than average relationship baggage. She was hurt by a status climbing ex who left her with shattered finances, dreams and self esteem when he moved on

    Logan is also an empath, but doesn’t have the control or training Allison has, and found himself crushingly used by his father. Logan prefers to use his skills to help people and companies. His father used them to decimate companies with little regard for the human cost

    When these two intuitive folks meet, both are afraid of connections and relationships. While he is not the shallow status hungry people eater she feared, he has never hsd a meaningful relationship

    Can these wounded folks find their way past paranormal and psychological drama and damage to romance and a new chance at life together?

    Intense drama action and paranormal elements

    This was such an entertaining paranormal cozy mystery. The characters of medium Allison and empath Logan are well developed and likable. I found the story flowed smoothly with mystery, danger, suspense and romance. I liked the side characters, finding that they added an element of humour to the reading ride. This is a series opener and I like that we'll get more of Allison and Logan as the series progresses. I also loved how both the main characters had interesting psychic skills that they needed to use together. Good fun!

    Love at First Haunt by Carrie Pulkinen a five-star read that will sweep you away. This is just simply so much fun, I adored the story, the characters and the spookiness. This is number one in the haunted ever after series and I am so eager for number two, there are some great characters in this one, and you can see them developing and sniping and just creating a great story adding depth and drama at each turn. Allison Grey will sweep you into the story and just enable you to forget everything and just enjoy the story.

    I've read another book by the author that I liked, and I found the blurb interesting, but I have to say I regret spending money on this book.
    It's just a sequence of tired clichés and stereotypical lines out of every other romance book or film.
    The idea sounded unusual, but I've got the opposite of something new. The book was simply boring. Every twist and turn could be seen from miles away.
    In the end, I opted for skimming because I didn't want to feel even more like I wasted money by not finishing.
    Since I won't complain about anything else, I'll give three stars out of goodwill.
