The odds are against me, and you can only get lucky so many times before the luck runs out.

  Title: Nightfall Series: the Grim Gate series Author: Emily Goodwin Release Date: March 30  If you have a ghost problem, who you gonna call? Not me. Seriously. Been there, done that, and the short time I worked as a professional medium was nothing like what you see on TV.

That’s life, and after twenty-four years of being able to see and hear spirits, I’ve grown used to it. But when demonic bounty hunters start coming after me, I realize that maybe there’s more to me than being a medium…that maybe my entire life has been nothing but fabricated memories and lies. Right as everything is unraveling around me, I meet Ethan. I’m as drawn to him as much as he scares me, and there’s no denying the darkness hiding in his hazel eyes. He knows more about my powers than I do and can help me, yet...

But it's been ages since we've seen each other, and after what he did to me our senior year of college, I wouldn't put his ring on my finger even if he begged me to marry him.
