Woman Reading

Vic... A few weeks ago I did a 30 day challenge, going through a list and finding a book to fit each listed category. One was for 'character I most relate to'. I chose Josie Alibrandi, but I was so wrong. The character I relate to the absolute most is Victor Bane.

Okay, sure he's a male psychic medium, in his 40's, who's addicted to prescription pills (to stop seeing the ghosts). None of that is like me, haha. However, his reactions and his inner dialogue is spot on. I have never read a character who's thoughts and fears so mirrored my own. I love it. I love Vic. I know Vic. I am Vic. The girly version anyway.

In this installment Vic is paying Con Dreyfus with his psychic talent by ridding Con's office of those pesky ghosts. Ghosts that include Dr. Chance. This leads to secrets revealed and his forced partnership with F-Pimp, despite his misgivings.

We get Lisa back, with secrets of her own, and we get more fun times with Con Dreyfus. We meet a new host of characters, some I liked and some I wasn't sure about.

And the best part, other than the awesomeness of Vic, was all the good times between Jacob and Vic. They're just characters in a book but they mean so much to me. They have a really amazing connection, physically, emotionally and spiritually. It's beautiful. Sure I love the sexy times, but more than that I love the protective instincts they both have. I love when Vic calls Jacob 'my man'. I love when Jacob takes care of Vic. Love love love.

(Also, I hear Crash gets his own book! YAY!)

There's not enough gushing in the world I can do for this series. I adore it. It's more than just an M/M book. It surpasses that label. It's a great series regardless of the main characters orientation. It's brilliant.
