Publisher Description
Ex-cop Luther Malone—member of a very secret paranormal society—and Grace Renquist, quirky librarian, are a strange partnership. Grace has been hired as an aura-reading consultant in the quest for a murder suspect, but has zero field experience. Her bodyguard, Luther, walks with a cane and isn't good with a gun! So the last thing they expect is for romantic sparks to fly between them at their hotel in Maui, where they're posing as honeymooners. However, their attraction must be suppressed quickly when rogue operatives for an underground group pour into the luxury resort. Grace recognizes the dark spikes in their auras—she saw the same pattern in someone else in another life—and she understands how dangerous these people can be. While the pair's employers scramble to get them backup, Luther and Grace have to think on their feet. The criminals in their midst aren't just high-level sensitives—they've enhanced their talent with a potent and unpredictable drug. And as Grace knows all too well, if you don't control your powers, your powers will control you . . .

"Luther is a former cop with a bad leg. Grace has been hiding since her previous boss died a year ago. They are both psychic and when teamed up together to profile one man, they uncover an even bigger plot. Add in a sinister opera singer and you have a great suspense story. Very enjoyable."
— Grace (4 out of 5 stars)

" Not quite as good as Sizzle & Burn, but a fun read. "
— Lisa, 2/20/2014 -
" I'm enjoying the Arcane Society novels.I think you should give them a read. "
— Marilyn, 2/12/2014 -
" I like to read the Arcane Society stories, but enjoy the ones set in historical England better. Paranormal gifts make detectives more effective. A little romance thrown in and poof! Vary the setings, vary the psychological gifts, a mistery to be solved, make one of the characters a little vunerable- this is the recipe. Still enjoyable. "
— Paula, 2/9/2014 -
" Touches on several threads from the historicals to solve a modern Nightshade mystery. Really enjoyed the peripheral characters in this one, wish the setting had been a bit richer. "
— Karen, 2/7/2014 -
" Another good one, I love this series. "
— Gail, 2/5/2014 -
" I usually enjoy how Krentz plays around with psychic phenomena. This one tested my credulity with a killer who killed by singing opera. I buy into the notion that music has energy and can move someone, but not to the degree of mesmerizing used in this story. "
— Lychee, 2/5/2014 -
" Do you know anyone who reads auras? Mildly interesting on a and just one notch about "fluff." No need to read any of her other books. "
— Helen, 1/31/2014 -
" Ick. Corny! "
— Amy, 1/30/2014 -
" This was nice brain candy if you are into romance novels. "
— Mandy, 1/17/2014 -
" I love her books and this is no exception. She has had some weaker books lately but this Arcane Society series is getting better with each book. Looking forward to the next one. "
— Teresa, 12/24/2013 -
" I really enjoyed this one in her Arcane series. I liked the introduction of the Siren character--someone who could actually sing someone to death! "
— Jill, 12/8/2013 -
" New series for me that I am enjoying. "
— Jean, 10/22/2013 -
" Easy read, enjoyed the characters. "
— Tiffani, 4/24/2013 -
" So-so read. Members of "good" paranormal society, the Arcane Society are pitted against the "bad" paranormal society, Nightshade (sounds evil doesn't it?) Love interest on the side. "
— Jane, 3/15/2013 -
" This was probably my favorite Arcane Society novel. I just loved the characters. I've read some of the later books so i found it amusing getting to see Fallon earlier on. "

" I didn't realize I was jumping into the middle of a series. I'm not really into the paranormal. "
— Julie, 6/7/2012 -
" This was a book about physics who could read and see people's auras. It was okay but not exceptional. "
— Dee, 3/14/2012 -
" A librarian! A fun read, with a great cover. "
— Carrie, 1/7/2012 -
" Great read by one of my favorite authors. Have actually re-read a couple of times. "
— Alice, 6/3/2011 -
" This was fun. I like the series, and the characters are always interesting. I prefer the Victorian era Arcane books that she writes as Amanda Quick, though. "
— Lorie, 5/17/2011 -
" Krentz's usual good job. Not much new in this Arcane Soc. novel. I still want to read them the minute they come out. "
— Mary, 5/15/2011 -
" I used to <strong>love</strong> JAK. Now I wasn't really passionate about it. But it was a pretty good read. "
— Andrea, 3/2/2011 -
" Krentz is adept at tugging threads from the past and adding them into the present. This entry in the Arcane Society series was fast-paced and opened up new cans full of worms to explore in future books. "
— Silver, 2/8/2011 -
" The series is interesting but I find it hard to buy this stuff in modern times. It's a lot more believeable in the Victorian time setting. The sloe exception so far being the middle book. The darker damper northwest setting helped to alleviate some of the disbelief. "
— Rachel, 2/6/2011 -
" I really like this series & fortunately found it for less than a paperback book before Christmas. The heroine starts the story with a BIG secret, the hero has one of his own & together there is a mystery to solve... in Hawaii "
— Amelia-Irene, 1/23/2011 -
" Not one of my favorites. Luther and Grace are likable enough but the "peril" they were in just didn't have much punch. "
— Kathi, 12/31/2010 -
" These just keep getting better and better. "
— Barbara, 12/4/2010 -
" Really more of a 3.5. The Arcane Society series is very formula, meaning you know when you start the book exactly how it will end. Running Hot was no exception. Fun read, likeable characters, enough mystery to keep your interest. "
— Melissa, 11/29/2010 -
" best one of this series that ive read thus far. no excessive use of the pshycical words or anything. great story line. "
