Book Review, Giveaway: Whisper to Me by Sherrie Lowe



Whisper to Me
by Sherrie Lowe


Amazon US / UK / AU / CA

A new wife and a vengeful ghost. Not a good mix.

Letitia – Tish – Stanyer makes husband Theo promise never to remarry if she dies and he complies just to pacify her. She isn’t going to die.

She does – and he does remarry. Tish isn’t happy. Her spirit cannot rest with another woman in her domain, sampling the delights of her husband. Theo belongs to her – Sheena will have to go.

My Rating:


Favorite Quote:

Sheena might have other attributes than being a domestic goddess.

My Review:

Whisper To Me was a quick, easy, and engaging read that kept me a bit on edge with both curiosity and anticipation of the next spectral manifestation and/or act of retribution.  I enjoyed the premise and creative storylines as well as the cleverly unique characters who enticed and beckoned my interest.  Theo had promised his first wife Tish, that he would not remarry if she were to die before him, although after several years as a widower, he lost his big head and was primarily using his little head when Sheena, a less than hygienic yet wildly carnal woman with a large sexual appetite, showed him some attention.  Sheena quickly got a ring on her finger and she and little yappy dog with indiscriminate toileting habits were soon ensconced in Theo’s home, soiling and defiling every surface and invoking a demented rage from Tish’s lingering entity.  Odd things began to happen, but being that she was not the brightest bulb in the pack, it took a while for Sheena to notice. 

Additional storylines involved other characters although those involving the vile and odiferous Sheena were my favorites.  The story wrapped up but didn’t fully conclude and left room for continuation, which I sincerely hope will be the case.  I gleaned a new addition to my Brit word list with midden, which from Northern UK and Scottish usage would be a trash heap.

About the Author

   
I am a divorced mum of two adult sons and nana to three grandchildren, soon to be four. I’ve always had a notion to write but didn’t get round to it seriously until I became ill with M.E in 1995 when I was 40 and was too ill to continue my job as a learning support assistant in a mainstream high school. I was devastated to have to resign from my job but writing saved my sanity. My first attempt was a memoir, Shadow Across the Sun which covered the loss of my mum to breast cancer two days before my 13th birthday. When the rejections began to flow in from traditional publishers and agencies I joined a creative writing class and learned to write fiction. Whisper to Me is my 10th novel. I have a strong belief in the afterlife due to events following my mum’s death so most of my stories have some form of supernatural aspect to them.
