LEANN'S REVIEW: Shattered (T.P. Hogan)

"Here she was, the girl who didn't believe in ghosts, standing in the middle of a set of stone steps waiting at a mirror for a ghost to appear."

Sebastian Ashcombe has been trapped behind the mirrors of Ashcombe Manor almost 150 years. He can view the manor using the mirrors as windows to the solid world but he can’t communicate with anyone and no one can see him.

Until Now.

Mattie Holmes visits Ashcombe Manor in Dunmore England after her mother marries Alex Ashcombe. The last thing she expects is a man in the mirror. Bastian is not a ghost. He didn’t die. He was cursed behind the mirror on his wedding day in 1869. As they start to unravel the mystery they realise they are running out of time. If they don’t break the curse before February 29th Bastian will simply disappear.

Breaking a centuries old curse is hard enough, but Mattie is starting to fall for Bastian. Not only is his very existence in jeopardy but to love a man in the mirror may only lead to a shattered heart.

Review:

I really enjoyed this read. I usually am not a fan of anything to do with historical. If I read about history I like factual history not fiction. This book however, I loved. I truly felt like reality met fiction here. The characters were incredibly strong and I loved the plot. 

I really love Mattie. I can definitely relate to her character. I really liked Jonathan too. I do have to say I loved the paranormal. I have always loved the paranormal and this author did a great job of creating this story. I was a little shocked to find this was her first novel. Well done! It was great. My only downfall... I wanted more. A lot more. I feel like there are a few questions left unanswered. Is this a huge problem? No. It doesn't take away from the story at all. I just wanted more. I am hoping for a follow up. Fingers crossed. I will definitely, be reading more of T.P. Hogan....

G’Day, I’m TP Hogan.

I’m an Aussie born and bred and I’ve lived both in the bush and in a Capital City; with a couple of stops along the way. Right now I live on the coast in Far North Queensland, which is an interesting experience; since swimming in surf, battling jellyfish and removing sand from all sorts of places are not favourite pastimes.

Writing on the other hand, is a favourite pastime. I write down the voices in my head & call them Characters. When they interact I call them Stories. Once published I call them Books.

When not writing, I have a full time day job, a full time husband, practice the violin, make jellies & am an occasional Radio DJ.
