 | Gift or curse? Ronnie has inherited her granny’s gift of a sixth sense. But for her it’s not a gift, it’s a curse. She’s unable to trust anybody with her secret, unable to form any meaningful relationships beyond what she has with the woman who shares her abilities. She’s learned to hide behind a solid wall of bitchiness. When the ghost of a persistent young woman infiltrates Ronnie’s world, she can no longer avoid the visions plaguing her. Reluctantly, she starts to open up to friendship, happiness and love, discovering that fate has more surprises in store for her future than she imagined. Including a man who might actually be able to understand the pain she harbours under her tough exterior. But as she learns more about her gift she finds herself in situations she isn’t prepared for. Now she’s in grave danger. Will she be able to stop a madman before she becomes his next target? |

I loved this storyline. Paranormal, romance, intrigue and danger all wrapped up in a great little book.
You are drawn into this tale from the start. The characters are interesting. interesting The story is richly woven. I was hooked.
Ronnie has inherited a gift from her grandmother. She can sense emotions and feel vibes from the slightest touch from a stranger. This makes her avoid crowds or busy places. Oh, she can also see and speak to the dead. Ronnie doesn't want her gift but tries to get buy without close to people. That is until Brad literally knocks her on her butt. Both are immediately drawn to the other but Ronnie tries to keep her distance. Brad has his own demons to conquer. After a persistent young woman's spirit follows Ronnie constantly, she is forced to accept the gift she has in order to help the ghost show her true story and the secrets in her life. This brings Ronnie and Brad together though the more of the past that is revealed raises the suspense and danger Ronnie finds herself in.
I thoroughly enjoyed this book and would recommend this author. Reviewed on behalf of WTMO book reviews.

Loved it! If you are looking for a paranormal romantic suspense read that instantly draws you in then this is the book for you! I was literally transfixed with Ronnie and Brad’s story and couldn’t read it fast enough. The mix of paranormal, intrigue, suspense and romance encapsulated everything I loved about this book!!
Ronnie has inherited her Grandmother’s gift of a sixth sense and can see and speak to the dead; trouble is Ronnie doesn’t see it as a gift more like a curse. Unable to open herself up and share her secret, she evades forming any meaningful relationships and hides behind a solid wall of bitchiness. The only person she lets in is her Granny.
When the ghost of a persistent young woman infiltrates Ronnie’s world, she can no longer avoid the visions plaguing her. Reluctantly, she starts to open up to friendship, happiness and love, discovering that fate has more surprises in store for her future than she imagined. Including a man who might actually be able to understand the pain she harbours under her tough exterior.
Cue Brad…harbouring demons himself will he be able to open up to Ronnie? Will he be able to break down her walls? Will they be able survive what fate clearly has in store for them?
As Ronnie learns more about her gift, she finds herself in situations she isn’t prepared for. Now she’s in grave danger. Will she be able to stop a madman before she becomes his next target?
The plot flowed with effortless ease, with likable characters both the main and secondary had depth and personality. Told through dual narrative something again I enjoy as I like to have insight into the characters thoughts and feelings. As I’ve said I really loved this book I had been in a book funk prior to reading Sensing You and this instantly pulled me out of it!
After having never read anything previously by J.M. Adele I'm ecstatic at discovering a new author and can’t recommend this book enough to fans of paranormal romantic suspense reads.

She was up. I leaned back a bit so I had a view down the hallway. The bathroom door opened revealing Veronica in a purple tank top and… were those shorts or knickers? Her mass of dark curls moved free and wild. She rubbed her eyes as she walked towards me, heading for the kitchen. Those legs, that hair. Those legs. I was amazed this woman was for real, to be honest.
She dropped her hands as she reached the counter, and squealed when she spotted me watching her.
“Morning, Veronica.” The look on her face was priceless. I let the chuckle escape.
“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?” Arms akimbo, stormy eyes, she set my heart on fire. The flame dimmed at the sight of the dark circles under her eyes.
I grinned at her outrage, and moved inside, wanting to get closer and take away whatever troubled her. “Enjoying the morning show.”
She rolled her eyes and opened the fridge to grab the apple juice. I made a mental note to keep the apple juice stocked.
“Hurry up and get your running gear on, we’re leaving in five.”
She paused mid gulp with her cheeks puffed out. The glass clinked on the counter as she set it down, swallowing loudly. “I beg your pardon?”
She was putting on her stern-librarian voice. I bet that worked on most people. She liked to keep everyone at a distance. Not gonna happen with me because it was making me hard. Made me want to rough her up, and show her who was in charge.
“Four minutes.”
Her dark chocolate eyes grew wide as her delectable lips parted. I noted the pulse on her neck as it jumped. She liked it when I took charge. Interesting. A smile tugged at my mouth. “Three minutes. If you don’t change out of those pyjamas, the neighbourhood is going to know what you sleep in.”
She made a strangled sound. “Okay, Bossy Boots. Sheesh.”
She had to brush past me as she navigated the kitchen counter. I breathed in deeply. Her scent wrapped around my chest, and drew my balls up tight. She made me want. She made me need. She made me forget.
In less than two minutes, she was standing in front of me ready to go, wearing black Skins and a fluorescent yellow, razor-back singlet. Her baseball cap dangled from one hand, and sunglasses from the other. I reached out to take them from her.
“You won’t be needing those. We’ll be back before the sun breaks.”
She held her hands up in dismay. Her phone was strapped to her arm. I ripped off the Velcro, taking that, too.
She put her hand over mine. “No. I need to have music when I run.”
I slowly shook my head. “You need to let your mind wander. Listen to the hum of the morning. Let yourself relax and mull things over. I do my best thinking when I run. Pictures of designs start flicking through my head. It’s liberating. Better than therapy.”
“Everything’s better than therapy.” She bit her lip as she let that slip.
I might’ve found a kindred soul. Her eyes told me she knew pain. The kind that I did. I almost felt like a prick for taking away her safety blanket. Almost.
I placed her things on the kitchen bench. Before I could stop myself, my thumb pressed on her chin to free her lip. “Please stop that, it’s very distracting.”
I heard her soft gasp. Her huge eyes seemed too innocent. It was such a contradiction to the independent, sassy girl I’d come to know.
I let my hand drop and turned towards the door. “Let’s go.” Without waiting for her response, I headed out the front, hoping she’d follow.
