Review: The Last Kiss Goodbye (Dr. Charlotte Stone #2) by Karen Robards

The Last Kiss Goodbye by Karen Robards
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

1,5star
After reading The Last Victim, the 1st book in Karen Robard’s Dr Charlotte Stone Series,https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
which I found interest albeit not crazy about, I wanted to find out where the series where a renowned psychiatrist, who studies serial killers and a serial killer that is killed during one of her studies would go.

Hell, did I struggle through The Last Kiss Goodbye, the follow-up book. I eventually found myself skimming over a lot of the pages….why??

Okay, Dr Charlotte aka Charlie Stone is once again involved in yet another serial killer, when a distraught and frightened young woman knocks late one night at her door asking for help…she’s running from yet another serial killer, who is doing some really bad things….sounds familiar??? Yes, just like the book before!!!!

And now we have Charlie having Michael Garland, as a ghost, invading her life. And guess what??? Charlie is so totally into Michael! Yes, she’s attracted to a ghost!!!!

Do I like Charlie or not? Jeez, this is supposed to be a very intelligent, educated and renowned psychiatrist but the way she behaves is just unbelievable. She spends her time fighting and questioning and internalizing…ooh I cannot be attracted to a ghost!!!! Ooh, I can’t really believe his innocence….he’s a ghost!!! Excuse me!!!

Please tell me if Charlie is sane……she’s trying to make sense of her feelings for a ghost….no, she can’t be sane if that’s what she feels….why not choose Tony, the attractive FBI agent who is so attracted to her…after all he’s human right…

She liked Tony a whole lot. She found him attractive, sexy. His kisses turned her on.
Tony she could kiss. Tony she could have sex with. Tony she could even, eventually, if things worked out, make a life with.
Stupid she wasn’t. She knew enough to choose the possible over the impossible.

Did she just say she’s not stupid!!!!

I like Michael Garland ….he’s entertaining and rather sexy…yes even for a ghost!
Ooh, that tight white T-shirt, jeans and boots!!!! Swoon!!! In fact, he was the reason why I did not give this book a 1star rating!!!!

The exchanges between Michael and Charlie – let’s just say frustrating more than anything else….in fact, I would have liked a lot more dialogue …of which there is very little in this book.

Of course, Charlie being so clever helps the FBI and family find the serial killer…oh did I forget to mention that I guessed who he/she was almost immediately???

Now, what frustrates me…is that I have to see the ending to Charlie & Michael’s story!!!!!!
