Fish and Ghosts: Hellsinger, Book 1

Absolutely! I love Rhys Ford as an author and Tristan is one of my favorite narrators.

In the audio version it was Wolf - Tristan makes his voice very rumbly and seductive - very enjoyable to listen to.

As was said in a previous review - Tristan could read the phonebook and it would sound sexy! He is so easy to listen to - audio candy!

No - but only because I wanted to savor it.

I can't wait for Duck Duck Ghost to come out next - pretty please!

Spooky.. Sexy... Hysterical

Definitely the Cole McGinnis series, Wolf and Cole both have the same dry, sarcastic, slap stick sense of humor.

The entire book was my favorite scene! I did really laugh my ass off though when Wolf woke up after a drunk night with the dog stretched out over his chest, instead of a softer, sexier Tristan.

Something slightly spooky this way comes.

Tristan Price has a keen eye for ghosts, he's been seeing and communicating with them since he was a child. The only place he ever felt comfortable in his own skin, found solace, was at Hoxne Grange with his uncle Mortimer. When Mortimer dies and leaves the estate to young Tristan, his beloved relatives make it their mission in life to prove Tristan is bat shit crazy. The task of proving Tristan's questionable state of mind falls on Wolf Kincaid, the owner and lead investigator of Hellsinger Investigations, paranormal researchers. It's not that Tristan doesn't believe in the concept of ghosts and hauntings, it's that he knows all too well that the majority of the time, the haunting is a hoax. Not so much this time around.<br/><br/>​After spending just a few hours at Hoxne Grange, Wolf is certain of two things. Tristan may be a bit eccentric, but he's not crazy, sexy as all get out, but not crazy. The attraction is mutual, immediate and almost magnetic in its intensity. While they both fight it for a while, Tristan far harder than Wolf, it gets to a point where it almost seems like the house is pushing them into each other's arms. Trying to figure out whether or not they should pursue said attraction is the least of this twosomes troubles. Hoxne Grange goes from a friendly ghost hotel to the haunted mansion in a matter of hours and the malevolent spirit that now roams the halls recognizes Tristan's unique ability, and she wants in. <br/><br/>Rhys Ford's wicked sense of humor is present and accounted for in the hauntingly sexy, delightfully funny story. Wolf Kincaid is this larger than life presence that swoops into Tristan's world and really just turns it upside down. And while the attraction was intense and immediate, the connection took a little while to develop. Wolf is a skeptic by nature, knowing that there is the possibility of spirits and such, but being shown more often than not that what people claim to be, to see, is a farce. Tristan has never met anyone life Wolf Kincaid. The man is a force of nature, storming into Tristan's repetitive life and making him want things he never thought he was worthy of. They balance each other in the oddest way.<br/><br/>Narrated by Tristan James who has one of the most amazing voices. The man could read me my grocery list and I swear I would hang off of every word. His voice is melodic and entrancing and he has this way of capturing the soul of a character right down to the odd little quirks and characteristics of that person and bringing them out in his narration. Add his voice to Ford's uniquely detailed storyline and what you have is a work of art for your senses. The writing as always is amazing, layered with rich characters and intermingling storylines full of passion, intrigue and an almost hysterical sense of humor that is trademark Rhys Ford. <br/><br/>Fans of Fords books and James works will, of course, love this little gem. If you are new to either or both and you enjoy ghost stories with an edge, sexy guy on guy action, paranormal romance and a whole lot of wild, ruckus humor, you'll love this book!

Is there any story line Rhys Ford can't write? I'd say no.

Paranormal investigator Wolf meets/investigates ghost hotel owner Tristan and all hell breaks loose. Literally! So what's a Hellsinger to do? Deny, deny, deny, and fall in love anyway.

And I could listen to Tristan James read a phone book and enjoy the experience. Probably my favorite narrator.

I really loved Tristan's confidence. He knows he's seeing ghosts in his home and he's completely sure it will all work out in the end. And it does. Great book, buy it!

I don't have the print version, but since I bought this title specifically because it was narrated by Tristan James, then I'd have to say I prefer the audio version. I did buy the ebook at the same time as the audio version because of whisper sync, but I haven't even opened it.

Probably for people who like the author or those who want something like the show Supernatural with an m/m romance aspect.

Everything. He brings everything. This wasn't an especially interesting story, the flowery descriptions during the sex scene and the epithets used instead of character names (referring to Tristan as 'the blonde' for example even after he and Wolf have known each other for awhile) was somewhat annoying but Tristan James' narration made the book bearable. I've gone through enough Rhys Ford books by now to know that her writing just isn't my cup of tea, but Tristan James and his sultry voice is addictive to listen to so he remains on my auto-buy list.

The epilogue when Wolf 'hired' the ghost cook. I don't know, just felt sorry for her.

Nada.

Way too much greasy detailed sex and not enough story. Wrong genre for me I guess. Overall pretty disappointed with the result.

I love it... was very very cute book.. i hope he does another one but with more of wolfs family ......

I will admit this is my first purchase in this genre; so, did not know what to expect. Having never read straight "romance" or Jackie Collins-type books, I was a little surprised by the jarring turns into basic badly written porn. Most of the book is sort of a ho hum comically written ghost hunters story until it suddenly veers to graphic sex. If it had been written in anything close to a realistic sexual relationship vs a gay porn video, it would have been more erotic.

Performance-wise, most of the characters are competently voiced with the exception of the effeminate voice used for Trystan (sp?). To me, nothing in the text leads one to think his character would sound more like the women's voices used for the book.

Also can't say the 2 characters on the book cover are what I'd personally believe accurately portrayed the 2 main male characters.

may be .... was not trill with the narration.

I like both main Characters.

the main characters sound it the same ... there were no distinction.

o really enjoy the time spend with the 2 main characters

This is my third (and likely last) go at a Rhys Ford book and something is just not doing it for me. I really liked the premise (same as with her other books), but neither the plot nor the relationship between the MCs was doing it for me. There is 'insta-lust' followed by dancing around each other for a few chapters, then MCs finally have sex and 10 minutes later they are picking out the China... I just wasn't feeling it, which made the sex scenes fall flat despite nothing being wrong with those per se. I noticed a similar pattern with the other two book by the author that I've read.

Tristan James is one of my favorite narrators, but I found myself having to go back and re-listen because I was loosing interest and was not paying attention.

Also, perhaps a small pet-pieve, but it was driving me nuts - one the the MCs was constantly referred to as 'the blonde' throughout the book, which I found supremely annoying and just plain weird, as we already know the guy and he's got a name, etc..

I really wish I liked this book better :( but I guess Rhys Ford's writing style is just not doing it for me despite the fact the I am intrigued by the descriptions of most of her books....
