highly recommended

Honor, a nurse, begins to see and feel strange things in her new home causing her to run to Ian, her reclusive next door neighbor for help. Ian doesn't really like contact with people because of his "strange" ablility but feels he must help Honor. While they try to figure out what is happening they feel a powerful attraction between each other that they can't deny. Find the book if you can because this is definately a keeper. I've read it about 20 times....

Leave the lights on


Returning home late one night from her nursing shift at the hospital, Honor Nightingale's keys get locked in her car and she becomes spooked by a noise from her house. That's all she needs to set her off running next door to her reclusive neighbor for help. She's never met Ian McLaren, but the ex-Ranger is more than capable of dealing with any intruders. The house is empty when McLaren checks it out, but Honor is still shaken and accepts the invitation to stay in his guest room overnight until he can help her make her house more secure.

Honor is grateful for McLaren's help, but her unease continues to grow as it becomes evident that something is terribly wrong in her house--a malevolent presence that seems to mean harm to Honor. Soon, Honor and McLaren find themselves fighting demons--those that torment them from their pasts, as well as the growing evil emanating from Honor's house.

Honor is also troubled and confused by McLaren. She feels an undeniable attraction to this complex man, but she is also uncertain how he fits in with the mysterious events in her house. Ian grew up in the home he now occupies, but left as a young man after being shunned by both family and community for his strange abilities and supposedly unspeakable crimes. As troubled as his childhood was, he also witnessed true evil in his years as a soldier. He will need every bit of the inner strength he developed as he fights for his and Honor's future.

This was a sexy, sultry, spooky read. Rachel Lee (the writing team of Sue Civil-Brown and Cristian Brown) skillfully used the northwest Florida setting to evoke a sense of danger and menace, contributing to paranormal and sexual tension--and, yes, there was loads of sexual tension between Honor and McLaren.

As thrilling and as "full" as this book was, tho, I did wish the author had expounded a bit more on Honor's and McLaren's pasts. The events of Honor's childhood were apparently more significant than even she realized, and I would have been interested in a more complete exploration of these memories and her potential. (I also would have liked to have gotten more of a physical sense of Honor. Unless I missed it, there was no description of her appearance and that made it difficult for me to put a "face" on her.) Similarly, the glimpses into McLaren's adult life in the army were also fascinating tidbits that I would have liked to have seen more developed.

Without divulging too much, I also felt as if the ending took the easy way out. The malevolent entity took decisive action that it really could have taken far earlier--either directly or by influencing others--in order to resolve its dilemma. That said, it is pretty easy to overlook these minor complaints of mine and just sit back and enjoy one good, ghostly story. Just leave the lights on. . .


(Note: This is a re-issue of a 1993 book.)

Intensely Creepy Romance

I loved this book. It was very suspenseful and entertaining. The characters were very interesting. They were both strong willed personalities that meshed well. The way Ms. Lee works the supernatural in with the real world is great. I loved this story.

-I could feel myself immersed in the Ghostly Atmosphere that lays in Honor's House and in the area surrounding it. The Hero, Ian, is fantastic, brave and sensual. Honor is a Heroine with compassion and tenderness who has never found true love before meeting Ian. If you like a spine tiggling, a sensual and a so romantic novel, you can't go wrong with "Imminent Thunder". It is a Keeper!



The secluded old house on the edge of town, shrouded by ancient oaks and Spanish moss, seems the perfect place for Honor Nightingale to make a fresh start, to find the peace she's never known. But then the voices start, voices from somewhere beyond the edge of reason, whispering of unspeakable horrors, in the past and yet to come.

One man and one man alone believes her nightmare is real -- her enigmatic neighbor Ian McLaren. Strange and compelling, he has clearly seen far too much of the dark side, and it has marked him forever. And yet she finds herself hungering for him, even as the voices -- and her fragile heart -- murmur to her to flee his touch . . .
