Those Who Whisper by R. Sullins

5.0

Ian & Lacey: Not Just Soulmates but Spiritmates! 5 Stars!

I simply cannot get enough of this author’s books! In short, I loved it!

In THOSE WHO WHISPER, we meet a sweet woman named Lacey. As an elementary school teacher suffering from mild OCD and anxiety, Lacey has finds it hard to live her everyday life without having an episode. Deciding she needs a change of pace, she applies for and accepts a position as the private, live-in instructor to a disabled, six year old girl to a single mother abroad. Lacey, using her coping skills learned in therapy, travels to Scotland to begin her new job.

She finds herself staying at a Manor filled with secrets and a curse that has affected generation upon generation of a family line. Lacey becomes swept up in the mystery of the curse when she encounters the curse’s last victim, Ian, a ghost and brother of her employer. Lacey soon finds herself falling in love with Ian’s ghost and does everything within her power to break said curse. Thus, freeing the souls trapped at the Manor. The caveat being that she also will free the man whose spirit she had come to love.

Ugh… the emotions this book will pull from you! I cried twice while reading so KEEP YOUR TISSUES NEAR! YOU WILL NEED THEM! Ian and Lacey’s relationship was a perfect insta love the endured throughout the book. I didn’t think a bond could get any deeper than that of a soulmate. But Ian & Lacey were ‘spirit-mates’. Their spirits were so intertwined it was as if they shared the same heartbeat. These two could not be more perfectly-matched.

This read was not without its level of spice! Yes, lots of ghostly-shenanigans to satisfy the heat you seek and the romance you love. R. Sullins… again you have amazed me with your writing! This is definitely a book to pick up if you want to step away from the angsty, revenge-plot, third act breakup, manipulations and machinations that appear in many romance novels. If you should choose to read it, please go into this book expecting the unexpected and try not to overanalyze everything. If you keep this in mind, you should come out on the other side of this story with a warm feeling and a warm-hearted smile celebrating their HEA.

Happy Reading!
