Phantoms (The Complete Trilogy)

Phantoms The Complete Trilogy includes the books: Ghost of a Promise, Give Up the Ghost, and Ghost of You. Three stories that follow the members of Phantoms, a television paranormal investigation team (think Ghost Hunters only the entire crew is compromised of attractive people), with the focus of each book being centered on different members of the investigation team. I very much enjoyed each of the books. Not only are the stories well plotted with great characters, but I also must say I found that each of them worked on multiple levels. Each featured a mystery of sorts to figure out, each featured a solid romance angle, and each of the investigations felt like a true to life actual paranormal investigation. Now when I say ‘true to life’ I mean that the actual paranormal investigation felt believable/authentic, at least they felt as real/genuine as all those episodes of Ghost Hunters I’ve watched over the years, though in the case of the Phantom’s investigations they certainly find more concrete paranormal activity than I ever saw Jay & Grant find. (For those that don’t know Jay and Grant are the two lead investigators for the original Ghost Hunters show). I can easily recommend this series for anyone who enjoys paranormal romance/ghost hunting. Not only are the stories quite engaging, but there is a decent amount of creepiness to these investigations. Thanks so much to Kelly Moran and NetGalley for allowing me to read and review an ARC of Phantoms.

Brilliant read. Loved all 3 books. 5*.

If you like your paranormal books with attention to detail and awe-inspiring action coupled with uncanny character development, this trilogy is definitely for you. All three stories are well-written with intriguing characters and plot. Highly recommended!

I really enjoyed this book. It had interesting story lines, likable characters and I would definitely read more by the author in the future.

I am so glad that I got to read tis trilogy together and I whizzed through it. Well written with great premises and well developed characters. Really enjoyable

Good read. Great characters, enjoyed the setting, lots of side stories weaved into it and it flowed really well. A good read for a rubbish day. Will make you feel better!

This is a terrific trip of books and it's a treat to have them as a box set. Each story could by read as a standalone but there is something special about reading the whole series in chronological order. You get to see the character development as the series progresses and the chemistry grow not just between the love interests but in the friendships of the team.
There is a lovely balance between the sizzling romances and the mysteries behind the hauntings the team is investigating. Full of tension, action and romance these are a must read for fans of paranormal romances of the ghost kind.

Kelly Moran brings us Phantoms, a magnificent trilogy of paranormal romance with a setting so well done that sometimes you can hear the creak of wood and the slam of doors. I highly recommend it!
The trilogy begins with Ghost of a Promise, the story of Ava and Jackson, the leader of the Phantoms team, who explore haunted sites and feature them on the TV show of the same name.
The second book, Give up the Ghost is the story of Kerry and Paul, both members of the Phantoms cast. Kerry discovers Paul's love for her while being stalked by a doppelganger during a ghost town investigation.
The trilogy ends with Ghost of You, which tells the story of Sammy and Cain, who joined the team and who, along with the Phantoms team, investigate a paranormal case in Sammy's hometown.
The intensity of the stories increases, in terms of romance and cases that the team investigates as the series progresses.
I thank the author, publishers, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read this book, and declare that the opinion I have expressed above is based solely on what I think of this book.

What the hell... I did NOT expect to love this series so much. Apparently I'm into ghost hunting romances and I don't even watch ghost hunting shows in the first place.

Although labeled a trilogy, the three books don't follow a single plot line. Rather, each story centers on a member of the Phantoms, a crew of ghost hunters. And each brought a different trope/romance that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Ghost of a Promise is an instalove/fated romance about two people who have both struggled to find a place in the world to call home. Of all the stories, this mystery is the one that had me most intrigued.

Give Up the Ghost is a friends-to-lovers romance that contains truly lovable characters. This is, by far, my least favorite trope in the romance genre so I ALMOST skipped past it. But, I'm glad I didn't. Kerry and Paul were such great characters and the climax of this book... whew!

Lastly, Ghost of You is an enemies-to-lovers romance. In addition to being my favorite trope, Sammt was the most relatable character to me. I'm always fond of cranky, tough exterior main leads (I'm one of the rare people who actually loved Nesta in the ACOTAR series, for reference), so I was so happy to finally get Sammy's story by the end.

All in all, Kelly Moran is now an author I will keep an eye out for. Her books have such a good balance of romance to mystery to paranormal. I'm sold.
