Wow. So I knew by the summary I would be interested in this book. Boy did it ever hold me captive as I flew though the pages. Such an original story. I loved how it moved and the different points of view we got through it all. Very fascinating and original. I really enjoyed it.
I’m not normally a paranormal genre fan, but the writing in this story had me hooked. I’ve never read a book written by this author before, however she really carried me on a ride of emotions with her writing. These characters are very interesting, the writing is phenomenal allowing the plot to flow easy. All things that I love in a book. I loved the paranormal aspect of this story as it’s not something I normally seek out. However, this one was intertwined with a mystery and a love story, so it kept me thoroughly intrigued with the ending. I was on the edge of my seat at certain points of this book and was not disappointed with the ending. I highly recommend you pick up this book and read it.
This book was a really enjoyable but emotional read. It has all the elements I love in a story, Romance, danger and mystery. The characters were really well written that you can’t help but go through the emotional journey with them.
Scott has a gift or a curse depends on the way you think. After he suffered a near death experience he can now see ghosts. Its not something he wants to encourage so he just ignores them. That is until 1 spirit comes to him for help.
Ghost bride or Zelda as Scott names her arrives into his life. She has no memory of what happened to her, she doesn’t know who she is or how she got there. Together they need to try and piece her story together. As their journey progresses their connection grows and soon they have feelings neither can deny.
Is Scott falling for a ghost? Is Zelda alive or dead? What is Zelda’s story? Who is she and what happened to her? Can Scott help her recover her memories and uncover the truth?
Peaceful Slumber (Soul Connection Book 1) by Nikki Lynn Barrett is a book full of mystery and paranormal. The lines between life and death seem to blur.
Scott used to be a fairly average person before he died. For a short period, he was able to see ghosts. He sees her for the first time in a graveyard, dressed in a bloodstained wedding gown. No one else is aware of her presence. He seems to be at a loss about how to assist her. A ghost stuck in her version of hell with no memory of her life or death is the one that makes him feel alive for the first time in eons. It almost sounds like the beginning of a horror story. Zelda is an amnesiac ghost bride who has no recollection of her life or death One person can only see her. Scott is her only hope of unlocking her memories since she has no idea who she is or how she got into this condition.
This book has a little of everything. I enjoyed every last chapter. I can’t wait to continue reading the series.
This was such a fun evening read! I have had the pleasure of reading some other novels by Nikki Lynn Barrett but this little gem has to be my favorite yet. This is one ghost story you will not want to miss out on. We get the story of Scott, a man who died three years ago. He may have only been dead for ten minutes but those ten minutes forever changed his life. He now sees ghosts, but a particular one, a woman in a blood stained wedding gown, really calls to him. He ends up naming her Zelda after the game because hello it’s cool, and he is determined to figure her out. Zelda can see Scott, but she doesn’t even remember who she is, no memories to be found. These two characters suck you in and will make you fall in love with them. I couldn’t put this sucker down and I sure hope we get new stories like this in the near future from Nikki Lynn Barrett.

No matter where she goes, USA Today Bestselling author Nikki Lynn Barrett hears voices in her head. Instead of calling her crazy and locking her up, her family realizes it’s just a product of being an author and allows her to write the stories so that the voices shut up.
But they don’t. And probably never will. There’s no need to lock her up, Nikki knows she’ll never escape the voices, not until each and every last story is written. And for every story she writes, about ten or more ideas pop up.
When she isn’t slaving away at her computer writing books that will probably make you cry and keep you in suspense, Nikki plots to take over the world one book at a time. What? It’s a sickness. One she can’t escape!
Books aren’t her only addiction, though. Nikki can be found making up parodies to drive her son crazy, and bantering back and forth with her husband, who somehow manages to steal her away from the fictional world she lives in all the time.
Nikki lives in Arizona with her husband and son, where she can be found using every creativity outlet she can find through music, photography, handcrafted things, and random interests that she may pick up from time to time.
Peaceful Slumber by Nikki Lynn Barrett is one story not to be missed. Oh it was not what I imagined but it only made it that much better. It is a paranormal ghost story with twists you will not see coming. I love a tangled web full of mystery and thrills and this one does not disappoint. I loved it as I was unable to guess what was coming up next.
Scott hasn’t always had his gift or is it a curse? What you see is not always what you get. But without it it would not have lead him to the two best things in his life.
This is one page turner that will keep you on the edge of your seat and biting your nails. Nikki good work!!
peaceful slumber is a keep you on your toes kinda read. Nikki Barrett puts love, loss, suspense and tragedy into one great read. Looking forward to the next book to come out 🙂
