Paranormal

Destiny Cartwright was the middle triplet, but she was the last one to figure out her psychic destiny. Disheartened, but determined to figure out her future, she retreated to the lighthouse on her brother-in-law’s property for answers. But when she cast a circle, she was surprised when three ghosts appeared.  

To get away from the stress of his family and friends, Morgan Jarvis retreated to the lighthouse he spent his summers in as a child. In the middle of the night, he heard a noise and went to investigate. Only to be beaned on the head by the last woman he wanted to see, the devilishly sexy Destiny Cartwright. He needed the time alone to build up walls between them after one hot kiss that rocked his world. After years of celibacy, he didn’t think he could keep his hands to himself if she stayed, so he needed to find a way to get her to leave. 

They were complete opposites. She was a witch, he was a paranormal debunker. With the ghosts help, Destiny quickly learned the heartbreaking truth about Morgan’s past. In order to move forward, she needed to force him to confront those painful memories. As they spent more time together, they fall under the romantic spell of the island. But when their love’s tested, Morgan has to make the choice to believe in Destiny or risk losing her forever. 

The interaction and chemistry between the characters really drew me into the story. The sexual tension made the pages steam. Unfortunately, the plot didn’t capture my attention, and there are a couple of points throughout the novel I couldn’t understand the characters reasoning. The ending felt rushed and the conflict that popped up felt contrived and added as an afterthought. The first two books really drew me to the series, but the weak plot in the third novel didn’t carry the promise of the first two books.
