It Takes a Psychic by Jayne Castle is the 17th book in The Ghost Hunters Series. The book absolutely can be read as a standalone or out of order in the series. The novel takes place in the future in an alien world called Harmony. One of the best characters to come from Harmony are the dust bunnies. They are like guinea pigs with fluffy hair, four eyes and sharp teeth. They are known to steal things and are very protective of the humans they claim.
In Harmony, everyone seems to have an extra trait called a talent. It is considered abnormal to have two or more talents. Leona Griffin is a para-archeologist and has a talent she keeps hidden as a person who can unlock anything. She is asked to help verify some objects as artifacts as genuine. Interestingly enough she runs into Oliver Rancourt, who has a talent of hiding in plain sight. Together they run into a death and escape (while being chased) into the tunnels. Meanwhile they end up being acquired by a dust bunny! They band together to solve a mystery. Of course they are HOT together and sparks fly!
The author, Jayne Castle is a pseudonym for Jayne Ann Krentz. Jayne Ann Krentz is a prolific author who writes under her name when writing contemporary novels. When she writes as Jayne Castle, she is in the future in the world of Harmony. Amanda Quick is her pseudonym for when she writes in the past. The books sometimes share family lines across the generations, although needing the knowledge does not take away from the novels. I love Jayne Ann Krentz no matter what name she writes under!
It Takes a Psychic by Jayne Castle is a great read with elements of humor, hotness, thrill, and suspense.
