Blurb: A psychic who's afraid of ghosts and a millionaire with a haunted past and a hidden power find that only love can catch a spirit. With love, all things are possible—especially if you need to catch a Spirit.
Psychic Allison Dupuis has a soft spot for
Logan Mitchell, even though she's never met him. All it takes is one encounter
for the millionaire's true emotions to slip through Allison's shields, and she
is intrigued. He needs her help, but Allison soon discovers that the kind of
help Logan needs is the kind she isn't willing to give. Logan has a ghost, and
Allison doesn't work with spirits anymore.
But the ghost is the least of Logan's
problems. Born an empath, Logan is constantly barraged with human emotions. And
while his talent has come in handy in the business world, it's about to drive
him insane. Literally. Logan has OCD, and his ability triggers unbearable
attacks that have him counting and cleaning until he collapses from exhaustion.
Sex and money. That's all anyone wants from
him. Even worse, he's plagued with recurring visions of his future wife's
death, so Logan has spent his entire life avoiding love. He's given up hope of
ever having a normal life, until he meets Allison. She's everything he's ever
dreamed of, and now he has to decide if loving her is worth risking her life.
If she'll even have him. Allison's lost too
much already — her mother to cancer, her father to suicide. But, Logan is so
charming and so real, she can't help but fall for him. Now she has to overcome
her fear of commitment...and ghosts...or face spending the rest of her life
alone.

Excerpt:
She sensed them as they drew closer to
her—many different spirits, their energy buzzing on varying frequencies.
"One at a time, guys. Please." she
said. But they didn't listen. These were the spirits of the mentally ill, after
all. Taking turns wasn't their concern, and they all rushed her. She felt their
presence closing in on her like an avalanche, and she was consumed. Every
mental illness imaginable was thrown into her psyche as she tightened her grip
on Gage's hand and slumped down in her chair.
"Allison! Allison, are you okay?"
Gage's voice was a distant echo as she fought to hold on to herself. She was
slipping. Sliding into the depths of despair and the spirits were pulling her
down.
"It's... No... There's a light... You
need to... You need to go to it." She tried to help the spirits cross
over, but they wouldn't listen. There were too many. Twenty at least, and they
were so consumed by their own illnesses they thought of nothing else. Paranoia,
depression, anxiety. Allison felt it all, and it was going to kill her. The
pressure. So hard to breath. Her hands cradled her head as the migraine
overtook her. Sharp, pounding pain had her crumpled on the floor as she drew
her knees into her chest and rocked back and forth.
"Make it stop. Please, just make it
stop." She was paralyzed. Frozen by the anguish of the tortured souls that
forced themselves upon her. Hot tears streamed down her face and blood trickled
from her nose. She gasped for air as she heard a faint voice call, "Get
her out of here!"
About
The Author:
Carrie Pulkinen has always been fascinated
with the paranormal. Of course, when you grow up next door to a cemetery, the
dead (and the undead) are hard to ignore. Pair that with her passion for
writing and her father's insatiable love for monster movies, and you've got the
perfect recipe for an exciting storyteller.
When she's not writing stories of amazing
sex with devilishly handsome men, Carrie likes to read, take pictures, and play
with her kids. She also enjoys hearing from her readers, who can write to her
at carrie.pulkinen@hotmail.com.
If you enjoyed this story, Sweet Release, her first published work
is also available from Breathless Press.

Not me personally but my hubby took a picture of our son at one of the missions here in San Antonio and in the background on one of the benches that was empty when my hubby took the picture, there is a blurry figure that looks like someone is sitting there.

We used to live in a haunted house, when I was a child.
No, not as of yet.
Yes, when my son was 18 months and was injured, I saw my grandfather leaning over him
I used to hear foot steps in an old house we used to live in as a kid. One time I heard this horrible noise coming down the stairs. I thought it was my cat thumping down but when I went to look nothing was there but the noise kept coming.
To say the least I ran for my life out of the house!!!
no never
This book sounds like a fantastic read and I have added it to my wishlist. I have had no experience with ghost or strange things.

BELIEVE IT OUR NOT BUT MY DECEASED NEIGHBOR LIVES WITH ME AND I FEEL HER PRESENCE SOME TIMES.
I grew up on the Outer Banks of N.C. If your house wasn't haunted it was considered odd.
Not really but enjoy hearing other people's stories.
Thanks :)

Yes actually I have and it was an experience that I normally do not talk about. My encounter was not exactly a friendly one.
I've had a few things happen to me over the years.

No haunted houses or ghost stories, but weird stuff like knowing when something was going to happen used to happen a lot when I was younger - most notably, driving with my Uncle and I told him to slow down on a mtn rd because of rocks in the road-- within a quarter mile, there was a large boulder that had rolled onto the roadway in our lane.

When i was little I would wake to voices calling my name. They would also say my name during the day sometimes. lol i know it sounds like ive got a mental disorder but i dont i promise! They whisper my name, and thats it. They didnt say anything else; sometimes its a woman voice or mans. Ive asked my folks about it when I was small but they just dissmissed it. It still happens but only once year or so. I dont keep track I just know they def happen less and less.

I wish I had a supernatural encounter, but not with something nasty.
I have seen a ghost up close there was one living in my parents house while I was growing up .I was in the bathroom looked into medicine cabinet mirror and saw his face clear as day solid not see through I thought someone was in our house .
I was doing laundry and bending over the dryer taking clothes out and swear someone slap my butt,when I turned around no one was there so that was kinda freaky
