Week 36 Review: The Grave Robber

From Goodreads:
Eric Vause is done.

Done with ghosts. Done with hellhounds. And definitely done with asshole demons, mostly because he'd been possessed by one. Even now, five years later, the rage he absorbed from the creature has yet to wane, so he decides a road trip is in order. Surely some cool air, great scenery, and a case of Dos Equis will shake things loose. Unfortunately, supernatural events happen everywhere. When he meets up with a friend whose partner's daughter needs help with a pest problem—aka, a ghost—Eric takes that as his cue to leave.

Until he sees her.

He can tell Halle's house isn't the only thing that is haunted. The hopelessness behind her eyes tugs at something deep inside him. Something all too familiar. The fact that she's the most beautiful woman he's ever seen has nothing to do with his change of heart. And he vows to leave her in his rearview the minute he takes care of the poltergeist. Then again, vows were never his strong suit.

My Review:
This was another wonderful read from this series! I really enjoyed Eric and Halle's story! It was so fast paced, and so quick to read! I wish there was more, that we could've gotten Halle's perspective, but what we got was really good! 

I think Eric is the most irreverent narrator since Charley, he knows when things are serious, but the way he presents things, and makes jokes is the front and good portion of his personality that covers those serious parts. 

Reading their romance was so cute! Because she started off in horrible mental state, and they went on this adventure, and she learned about his abilities, combined with his looks and his personality, well, of course they would be good together!  

The whole mystery over her haunting-or whatever the heck was going on with her-was really intriguing to read! Eric quickly points out some suspicious facts, and oh, it was pretty awful what happened! And oh, that ending was pretty explosive! Loved how it wrapped up! 

This was a terrific read, and I can't wait to read more by Darynda Jones, in this world, and any others!
