The Medium

Emily Chambers Spirit Medium, Book 1

By: C.J. Archer

Narrated by: Gemma Dawson

Seventeen-year-old spirit medium Emily Chambers has a problem. Actually, she has several. As if seeing dead people isn’t a big enough social disadvantage, she also has to contend with an escaped demon and a handsome ghost with a secret past. And then there’s the question of her parentage. Being born an entire year after her father’s death (yes, a year), Emily is as much a mystery as the dead boy assigned to her.

Jacob Beaufort’s spirit has been unable to crossover since his death. It might have something to do with the fact he was murdered. Or it might not. All he knows is he has been assigned by the Otherworld’s administrators to a girl named Emily. A girl who can see and touch him. A girl who released a shape-shifting demon into the mortal realm. Together, they must send the demon back before it wreaks havoc on London. It should be a simple assignment, but they soon learn there’s nothing simple when a live girl and a dead boy fall in love.

A paranormal romance & mystery

Not your normal paranormal story but I enjoyed it. Good plot and great narrator. Takes place in Victorian times.

Clean Heat

Engaging mystery. Loveable characters. Romance that wasn’t too overbearing—albeit a little too unbelievable. Can’t wait for the next one.

The Medium

Normally CJ Archer is a favorite author of mine. This book missed the mark in my opinion. For one thing, I think the characters were too young. seventeen and nineteen. The premise of the story was a bit far-fetched even for paranormal books. The "heroine" of the story is a tad simpering and unrealistic. And let's face it, the "hero" is dead.... unless she's willing to give up the "ghost" (her own, that is) there really isn't a happy ending here. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, this wasn't. This is only my opinion. I'm certain there are many who will love it. I will continue to look forward to CJ Archer write other novels, but I will not be continuing this series.

action and interesting relationships between the characters.

that it went into the next book and I hadn't purchased it yet and I was in my car at time.😃

It was ok

I loved the glass and Steele books so i tried this… i think it was a little to young for me
