“She wants to be loved by you…alone!”
Daryl Beasley collects all things Maxine Marie, whose famous curves and fast lifestyle made her a Hollywood icon for decades after her tragic death. Daryl’s girlfriend, Loretta Stevens, knew about his geeky lifestyle when they started dating, but she loves him, quirks and all.
Then one day Daryl chooses to buy a particularly tacky piece of memorabilia instead of Loretta’s birthday present. Daryl ends up in the doghouse, not only with Loretta, but with Maxine Marie herself. The legendary blonde returns from the dead to give Daryl a piece of her mind—and a haunting obsession he’ll never forget.

We all know many of our friends or people that are collectors of Scifi and or memorabilia of certain actors. Daryl Beasley is a guy who has a deep love for a blonde bomshell named Maxine Marie who's our society's equal to Marilyn Monroe. Daryl's girlfriend, Loretta Stevens, tolerates his obsession but lately not as much when Daryl decides to take it up a notch in purchasing a new collector's item that he finds is haunted by his very object of obsession!
The characters in Haunting Obsession soon became friends. Daryl gives you a sense of fondness for him. While his girlfriend, Loretta, is a tough young woman that really has a strong willful personality. She isn't afraid to put a stop to some of Daryl's more outlandish ideas which is refreshing. Now there is a character in particular in Haunting Obsession known as Rebecca Burton who is a freelance agent for the Indiana Special Investigations Unit that happens to be a mysterious woman that is a character sure would like to know more about. Loretta describes her as a character from a 1940's film noir.
Haunting Obsession is a moderately fast read. If your a supernatural or Paranormal Fiction book fan like myself this is the book you will most certainly find to your liking. R.J. Sullivan with writing Haunting Obsession drew some inspiration from idol worship that can easily become an obsession which is a creative, original take on his part.
Before forgetting have to mention that the aforementioned
Rebecca Burton has a past that can be discovered through A Seventh Star Press Single and a Rebecca Burton Short Story available now in E-book format titled Backstage Pass.
Definitely interested in reading Backstage Pass since R.J. Sullivan's Haunting Obsession left a good impression on this book blogger!
Overall: Amazing read!
Genre: Supernatural, Paranormal Fiction
