The Guardian of Blackbird Inn

This is paranormal romance, adult paranormal romance. It has some steam to it. It stands out from other books I have read from the genre because I seriously got some goosebumps while reading this. This is the perfect book for this time of year with Halloween so close. This story is spooky and has a very Gothic feel. We have an a haunted inn, malevolent ghosts, visions of time that have passed, and a paranormal main charater.  

My only complaint t is the length. This could have been so much better if it had been expanded. The author has some serious talent. I will definitely read more by her. I hope she pass something out that is full length, and just as spooky. I wish I would have waited until night time to read this, it would have made for an A+ experience. 

I really like a scene where the female lead encounters a ghost while following the hottie of an inn keeper to her room.
 
Taking ne last look down the staircase, she nodded. A bright flash of white caught her eye and she stopped, ice running through her vains. The white, almost translucent blob flew up the staircase, winding toward her. The thing pulsed and gave off iridescence like it was lit from within, and it trailed a shower of tiny sparks. She opened her moth to scream, but nothing would come out.

Lightening flashed in the stairwell again, and the blob disappeared. Frozen, she crane her neck to see if anything else was coming up the stairs. The stairwell was much cooler. Cold. Her heart hammered and she put her hand over her chest, as if it would calm hrt. Her breath came out in puffs of condensation, like tiny clouds in the dark.

Recommendation:

I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes paranormal romance, especially of you are in the mood for something a bit spooky. This is short, 74 pages, if you have some time to kill give it a try. I hardly ever give a book of this length more than 3 stars, but I REALLY like this. It was a perfect way to try out a new to me author.

I downloaded an ecopy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. It is available “read now,” and does not require approval.
