Book Review: Rising Mist by Karla Brandenburg

The Keeper of Secrets isn’t a job Max Maitland had on his bucket list. It came to him via heredity, and it’s the saving grace for his sister and her friend who have unusual talents. While the three of them are hunting down a demon that killed at least one person, Max is trying to balance his new social work career and a budding relationship.

The special someone doesn’t want any entanglements. Robin Chandler’s street smart, independent, and still smarting from her ex-fiancé’s betrayal with her ex-best friend. Art is Robin’s salvation and her vocation, and she makes good money at it. Getting tangled up with Max is completely out of the question.

But she does. Get tangled up with him. In Chicago and Sedona, and it gets pretty hot. And there are bad guys and Max’s family pushing them together – and pulling them apart.

This is the third in Brandenburg’s Kundigerin series. The paranormal elements are well-presented and interesting, the romance enjoyable. Max has such a kind heart, always giving of himself, that he won my heart from the get-go.
