I really enjoy this writer - her characters are witty and interesting and she comes up with some pretty cool storylines. I would recommend this book if you like paranormal/comedic stories. This is the third book in her series so I recommend reading these books in order. I really enjoyed the first one, liked the second and really enjoyed the third one.

Another excellent entry in the Nicki Styx series. Satan has set up shop in Atlanta the better to bedevil Nicki with. He'll try anything to tempt her over to the dark side. If you want to find out if he succeeds, you'd better pick up this book! You won't regret it.

In this, the third book in the Nicki Styx series, Nicki is continuing to deal with the devil - he just won't leave her alone! He has followed her home to Atlanta and opened up a music store down the street from her vintage clothing establishment. Not satisfied with physical proximity, he also convinces a psychotic suicide victim's ghost to help trash Nicki's boyfriend's life by possessing Nicki and accusing Joe of murdering her in the ER. The ensuing lawsuit leaves Joe open to suspension from hi...more

Interesting paranormal about seeing (in this case) a very angry spirit.

This series continues with a terrific third installment. Nicki Styx, one who has "seen the light" and returned to find she also sees the dead - who have issues to resolve just like the rest of us. Nicki's life seems to be in order, now; her relationship with ER doc, Joe, has passed the 6-month record mark and he is as understanding as a boyfriend can be of her ghostly projects and her temptation by Sammy, owner of Divinyls and the Devil in real life. Sammy wants Nicki's body & soul,...more

Nicki Styx is haunted by a vengeful ghost (Crystal) who died in the ER where Nicki's boyfriend Joe is a doctor. Satan (Sammy) has the hots for Nicki and has opened a store across the street from Nicki's own shop. (Yes this really is Satan himself.) Sammy is using Crystal to torment Nicki and Joe in order to turn Nicki to the Dark side. This is a fun jaunt with lots of twists and turns that keep you turning the pages faster and faster. A quick read with all the fun characters from the previo...more

So It's getting better. I have no violent urges towards the characters this time. I still don't like being trapped inside someones head. Even more so when the main character just continues to make bad choices about leaving things unsaid. But.. overall it was the most enjoyable book of the series so far. A good character who I don't really believe we are done with, but glad that we may be getting a break from because continued use of him could get old. I am loving grandma!

Creepiest line I have ever read "Day for you, night for me" says the ghost tormenting Nikki. It was very well written. I did not fall in love with the concept as a series but the first one is worth the read.

This is the second book in the series, and though I didn't read the first book, the new reader gets caught up quickly as there's not a complex series arc. The book was really good, with some suspense and creepy stuff without being dark or gory. There's a gay friend/business partner and his love life for humor, a sexy devil for temptation, and the love relationship for romance. Everything you need for a paranormal reading fix!

Is it so wrong of me that I want Nicki to embrace her dark side? Anything to keep reading about the delicious Sammy.
Garey's Nicki Styx series keeps the surprises and the tension rolling. This time, Sammy has moved in just next door and is making his tempting presence known in all sorts of ways. Include romantic drama, some Wiccan southern belles, and some possession by spirits and You're the One That I Haunt is another winner.

Another visit with Nicki Styx, who can see the dead after a near-death experience. The devil is still after her in the form of cute guy Sammy, and he wants Nicki to direct souls to him instead of helping them go into the light.

Cute book. But who is on the cover? It's not Nicki Styx she has short black and pink hair. Maybe her sister Kelly.She has long brown hair. But Kelly was not really in this book. What???

I don't think anyone can do crazy ghosts better than Terri Garey and she proves that again in this episode of Nicki Styx. I think she named this last one Chrystal and gave her an eating disorder just to use the nickname "Chrystal Meth" as a punchline. There are much funnier lines in the book though. Overall, this is a quick read and pefect for this summer. I highly recommend this series.
