Twilight by Ally Blue
Publisher: Samhain Publishing
Genre: Erotic Paranormal, GLBT M/M
Summary: While leading an amateur ghost-hunting expedition in Asheville, NC, Bay City Paranormal is called to investigate Sunset Lodge, a rustic inn situated on a remote Smoky Mountain peak. In recent weeks, employees and guests alike have seen a weird, frightening creature in the forest near the lodge. A creature which sounds all too familiar to the BCPI team.
Sam Raintree doesn’t want to deal with another interdimensional gateway. The last one they faced nearly took the life of Sam’s employer and lover, Dr. Bo Broussard, and Sam can’t stand the thought of it happening again. Especially now that he and Bo are finally together and working through their problems. But Sam’s psychokinetic abilities give him the power to permanently close the gateways, and he can’t bring himself to ignore that. With the safety of the Sunset Lodge staff and guests at stake, Sam, Bo and their colleague, Dean Delapore, make the trip to the Lodge to determine if it indeed hosts a portal to another dimension.
Once at Sunset Lodge, a missing man, a grisly discovery and a moment of carelessness converge to reveal secrets much different—and far uglier—than any the BCPI team expected. Secrets which not only put their lives in danger, but which might provide Sam with an escape from the portals. If he’s willing to take it.
My Review: This third installment of Blue's Bay City Paranormal Investigations series was entertaining, if not quite so gripping as the first two books. Perhaps because the mystery element was fairly tame in this book, I found it didn't hold my attention as determinedly as
the others. That isn't to say it isn't a good book. I enjoyed it. The focus in this book was most definitely on the relationship between Sam and Bo, and sets up a whole new issue for them to fight about.
What's most interesting is that even when you might think further impediments to a couple's happiness would be artificial and contrived; Blue manages to make the conflict real and sympathetic, while keeping the characters believable, and the relationship interesting. It also sets up so many potential pitfalls for the rest of the series that it's impossible not to keep reading.
My Recommendation: This was a bit of a break from the intensity of the firt two books, but not a dull read by any means. Pick it up, but know you'll probably want to read the first two books first. They're well worth it.
