The Siren Touch A Siren Romance Book 1 edition by Amber Belldene Paranormal Romance eBooks

Sonya is a woman who was murdered, and she wants revenge - and it seems as though Dmitri is the one who will be able to help her when she appears to him. Dmitri has his own plans for revenge, but he can't help wanting to help this beautiful spectre. And when his touch makes her inhabit her body once again, he finds himself wanting to help her experience all the things she never was able to before her untimely death. But time is running out for both of them - can they catch a killer and find some kind of happiness before it's too late?

I really enjoyed this intriguing and interesting romance! Most paranormal stories I read have shifters, or vampires or demons, and this is the first time I've read a full novel that involved a ghost as the heroine of the story. Sonya comes across as a lovely woman from a warm family, whose fate was decided too soon when her family was murdered in 1968 in the Ukraine. Until now she's been in limbo, but the time has come for her to enact her revenge, and when she appears to Dmitri in the present time she calls to him on a soul deep level (in part because she is a Siren, a woman who can tempt men to their doom). Dmitri is also Ukrainian, with a complicated family history, including a deranged abusive father and an uncle for whom he still works as a contract killer. He knows he's a bad person, but assisting Sonya in her quest might help him redeem himself. Developing feelings for a ghost is not something he expects, but when she is able to become a solid, touchable woman, he finds himself drawn to her even more. They share some steamy scenes together, even with the knowledge that there can never be a future between them.

The setting was really interesting, centered in the Ukraine and San Francisco (in the past and in the present) with a nod to Ukrainian folklore in Sonya's presence as a 'rusalka' , a water nymph with a Siren's call. It's a mystery, a suspense story and a romance all rolled into one. And though it seems as though there is no way that there can be a happy ending for this couple (I mean, she is a ghost after all), I was pleasantly surprised with how the plot unfolded and how it all turned out. I'm looking forward to reading more as there is another mystery unveiled at the end that involves Sonya's sister. 4 stars for a unique and entertaining romance!

The Siren Touch A Siren Romance Book 1 edition by Amber Belldene Paranormal Romance eBooks Reviews

Well, this was... new.

I dare say, I've read stories involving lots of mythology facts and legends, from many cultures. But Slavic folklore was something that had eluded my attention - until now.

Dmitri Lisko knows he's no innocent man. And he also knows that daddy dearest was not an award-winning example as a father when he was alive. But he still blames one person for what his family had to go through - and now he's finally out to get him. But upon arriving at his aunt's house, where he's supposed to stay while stalking his target, he releases a rusalka from one of her antique teapots. Sonya Truss found an early death at the hands of suspicious militsya men many years ago. Now that she's back as a bloodthirsty ghost, she has only a little time to take revenge before she completely loses herself to her bloodlust. Both sexy ghost and broken ex-hitman have people to kill - but each one's vengeance is fated to destroy the other's chances...

I admit that I didn't know what a rusalka was. Like I said, I'm not very familiar with Slavic mythology. So I looked the term up, and I was shocked. The rusalka is truly a fearsome creature, and I couldn't finish reading all the info because I freaked - plus, I googled some images, and I assure you I had some pretty vivid nightmares focusing on what I saw.

Still, Sonya was one rusalka I wouldn't mind around. I've seen many friendly ghosts in books and all that, but it was really different from what I've read so far. Sonya was sweet, funny, and cute. She had that innocence that only children possess, and at the same time, a kind of wisdom that kept surprising me - and Dmitri. She was understanding and forgiving to an extent, and while she did want to live, even if she knew it was impossible, she still didn't mind passing on as long as those she cared about were safe. She was ready to throw her revenge aside just for Dmitri's sake, and while many might see it as a weakness and falling in love way too quickly and unrealistically, I say it was natural.

Because if you saw those two, you would see their chemistry and how well they fit together.

Dmitri was the typical thug, who may be that tall, dark, brooding man we drool over when we spot him, but he was by no means handsome. His nose was broken, and he had scars. Nothing like those perfect, flawless male heroes in romance. And yet he still manages to get the reader to swoon, despite his addictions, and his chaotic life, and all his hangups. He was secretly a huge, cuddlesome marshmallow, a teddy bear of a man that can screw you to oblivion, and then wrap himself around you to cuddle you to sleep - and if that's not hot and awesome as hell, I don't know what can be!

And you wanna know what makes him even better? He was such a knight, even if he didn't believe so himself, that he kept holding himself back, despite his raging need to get the sheets burning with Sonya. He was such a... well, a MAN, that he fully acknowledged that, yes, a guy with healthy sexual urges wants a woman, not a broomstick. Sonya kept seeing herself as fat because she was comparing her pin-up-model body with the toothpicks that walk around the streets nowadays, and our boy Dima kept insisting, half of the times in his head, the other half quite loudly, that he liked her that way, and in fact she was much sexier and that made him feel better as a male. Wow, just... wow! Not to mention that he, too, was ready to throw away his life and his revenge, and everything he had accomplished so far, all the riches and the prestige that waited for him back in Kiev, to be with her, if only for a little while, to make sure that she at least avenged her death and that she would pass on happily.

It made me wanna cry every time he sacrificed one more thing for his ghost's sake....

The good thing is, I sense there is another book coming. If that is true, given Belldene's amazing hot scenes, funny dialogue, and plethora of plot twists, I seriously can't wait!

I have been a fan of Amber Belldene's from the start. She amazes me with her storytelling ability. The characters become a part of me and I have a hard time putting her books down and attempting to do daily routines. This new book did not disappoint me . I can't wait to see what happens in book two. I hope we don't have to wait too long for it. Great story, fun read.
I love Amber Belledene's writing style. She completely sucks you into her characters. This book had me thinking and wondering what was going on even when I wasn't reading it. I can't wait to find out what happens next.
I gave it four stars because I didn't really connect with either main character, and I thought their relationship moved just a little too fast into love territory. But, the writing style is masterful and the cultural facts and mentions were really interesting. I guess this story just didn't resonate with me the way others of Mrs. Belldene have. It happens. )
