I’ve loved Christine Feehan’s writing style since I found a couple of Carpathian Novels in the bookstore: Dark Celebration and Dark Symphony.  Because of those titles I was drawn to the GhostWalker Series.  Shadow Game is the first book in that series.  Ryland and Lily are a wonderful couple, you can feel they are meant for each other from the first, and better than that, they feel it themselves.  One of the beauties of romantic fiction is just that, the stuff dreams are made of.  Love at first sight so to speak.

They are named ghostwalkers because they can go unnoticed into any situation.  Their basic talents have been enhanced so that they are super soldiers – telepathy, telekinesis, you name it.  Their leader is Captain Ryland Miller and he is trying to get his men out of the facility where they have been incarcerated because their power has gotten too strong.  They can plan and help each other out even while separated, but their powers can weaken them with extended use.

You should beware, this title made me blush from the first chapter until the final one.   Hot descriptive sex is all over it, one of Mrs. Feehan’s stronger talents and she definitely does not disappoint.

Another thing I love is that this couple is not a Barbie & Ken match, meaning they are real life type of people with insecurities and some self defeating core beliefs.  But when they are together, they let all of that go.  In the long run Lily needs a bit of convincing, I don’t know why for heaven’s sake, but then if I were in the same position I would probably have my doubts too – a too good to be true kind of thing.

In conclusion, drop whatever you are doing right now and go buy the book.  I already have the next one (Mind Game) on my night table waiting for me to finish this review.

FROM THE BACK COVER

The classified experiment is the brainchild of renowned scientist Peter Whitney and his brilliant daughter, Lily.  Created to enhance the psychic abilities of an elite squadron, it can transform their natural mental powers into a unique military weapon.

But something has gone wrong.  In the isolated underground labs, the men have been dying – victims of bizarre accidents.  Captain Ryland Miller knows he is next.  When Dr. Whitney himself is murdered, Ryland has only one person left to trust: the beautiful Lily.

Possessed of an uncanny sixth sense herself, Lily shares Ryland’s every new fear, every betrayal, every growing suspicion, and every passionate beat of the heart.  Together, they will be drawn deeper into the labyrinth of her father’s past… and closer to a secret that someone would kill to keep secret.
