Jessie is enjoying an evening run, grateful her life is finally back to normal. Starting the incline toward home, a sudden terror grips her. Someone is watching her. She picks up her pace, but he's hot on her heels - and he means to kill her. She narrowly manages to elude her pursuer and reach the safety of her house. The first one she calls for help is the man she has grown to love, Matt Parker.

Matt already has his hands full dealing with a notorious hitman who's in the area and a thug who followed a visitor to Blue Cove. Now Jessie is in danger, and Matt will do anything to keep her safe. He can’t lose her now.

When Matt becomes the target, it’s Jessie’s turn to help. She has a few surprises in store as a few ghostly friends come to her aid.

Can the bookstore owner help to catch a killer?

This is a new-to-me author and first read in this series so I was a bit unfamiliar with the supporting characters, as well as Jessie's backstory. That said, that lack of knowledge on my part, did not prevent me from enjoying this paranormal, romantic suspense. Bookstore owner, Jessie, has the 'gift of sight' and, during one of her evening runs, senses that she's being watched. Later, she sees a murder being committed in the same area and feels that the killer is really after her. She reports this to her chief of police bf, Matt, who already has his hands full trying to locate a hitman. The suspense and creepy factor are almost off the chart. While I enjoyed the story, there were parts that tended to drag with, IMO, over explanation of what the characters were doing. Eventually the bad guys are caught and it appears that wedding bells will be in the future for Jessie and Matt.
I accepted a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

A fun and entertaining mystery thriller!

Loved it! The narration was great. A story about a killer that was fun to listen too.

A fun story!

I liked listening to this audiobook. Elisabeth Russo sounds a bit young, but I think it works in a G rated type story where a police chief and his girlfriend sleep in separate bedrooms at each other's houses.
Very good story, and very good narration. I look forward to more books from this author and more audiobooks from this narrator.

Thriller !

A series a psychological twists and turns...binding the characters in a fear filled maze...creatively narrated !

Fantastic

Would you consider the audio edition of Dance with a Devil to be better than the print version?

Unsure. I really enjoyed the audio version.

What did you like best about this story?

I really liked the twists. I also fell in love with the characters. Matt and Jesse became a part of my life for a period. I felt their anxiety and fear, even a bit of anger when things got close to the end. I wanted them to win.

What about Elisabeth Russo’s performance did you like?

She attempted to lower her voice when she was reading the male parts. She also attempted to change her voice when she was reading two women at one time.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed at Matt and Jesse's playfulness. I loved the way they behaved with each other. Serious when needed but they also released the stress by throwing snowballs or picking on one another to make the other laugh. That was good.

Any additional comments?

I really enjoyed the audible book. This is my first book besides the bible I have listened to. It is a different experience all together. When listening to the bible I followed along. Since I don't have this book it stood by itself. I whole new experience and one I really enjoyed.
