I truly wanted to love this. From what I read this is the last book. And I expected so much more. In the beginning I really loved Rylan. I just felt like it wasn’t wrapped up. And I was disappointed that it ended in a lie. I see that some things were ‘wrapped up’ but I just didn’t feel satisfied.

But that’s the beauty of a book. We all take something different from reading it.

I have enjoyed all of the seven books in this fantasy, ghost whisper, murder mystery series. They are all short easy reads. My reading excitement has risen each time one of the books has been released. Rylan Flynn, her living and ghost family, her side kick Mickey and her boyfriend have been a welcome part of my reading over the past few years. This book wraps up all the lose ends. Rylan is now finished putting herself in danger and getting hurt, which seemed to have been part and parcel of her life helping ghosts move on. But we leave her with a secret close to her heart. A special thank you to Dawn Merriman for sharing Rylan with us.

I wanted to love this book, to finally close up several mysteries throughout the series, but it just felt incomplete in some parts. While the overall mystery was solved, it failed to fully connect some of the earlier paranormal mysteries Rylan faced that the author hinted was connected. Ford felt out of character as well, and the beginning an accident was weird and did not make sense. I also felt Rylan learned nothing from revealing her big lie and had no character growth. She is still lying!

The Last Haunting by Dawn Merriman, published by Second Sky, is book seven in the Rylan Flynn Mystery Series. This is not a stand alone, I recommend to read the books in order.
I'm a fan of this series and couldn't wait to read about Rylan's latest adventure.
The story picks up where the previous book was left off. Rylan was stabbed and shortly released from the hospital. She's still healing and her boyfriend Detective Ford is there to lend a helping hand. What he doesn't know is they're not alone in the house. Her mother's ghost and a little girlghost are residents too. Soon they all learn there's more behind the attacks on all of them. The perfect pnr mystery,excellently written, beautifully told, literally unputdownable. A pageturner of its finest, I recommend the book and the series, 5 stars.

The Last Haunting is the final story about Rylan Flynn, a lady who can see and communicate with ghosts and she tries to help them solve their deaths and pass on to the other side with the he!p of her friend Mickey and off and on again detective boyfriend Ford, I've enjoyed the series so far and it's sad to say goodbye to her and I do not want to give anything away from this the last book, but personally I do feel this one lacked a little of the mystery from the previous novels maybe so it could all be wrapped up in the end. But that said its still a good series and I'm looking forward to what Dawn Merriman writes next.

Bittersweet when a series ends, especially such a good one! Creepy. Clown. Puppet. Yes he is back and new developments with Rylan's ghost guests keep things hectic. An entertaining series with great plot and characters, and in this one, yes, things get wrapped up, sort of ;) Highly recommended!

Well, it’s over; this is the last book in the series, and I’m so gosh darn sad it is. This last book is a really doozy though. Rylan is doing what her mom asked, and she along with Ford and Tyler, are investigating her mother’s murder. What they discover along the way is a shock, and we find out that not everyone is as they seem. I am so sad it’s over, and I’m a little sad for Rylan at the end, but I can’t say why because of spoilers. However, I am happy that the author is working on another series, and I’m holding my breath waiting for it. Excellent ending to a great series. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.
