Dani Justice's dreams are haunted by a dream that seems to suggest that she's going to have trouble, that she's going to end up in a building that's colapsing but that she needs to rescue someone. The only change that occurs are minor details. She returns to her home city and her twin Paris, who is recovering from her divorce. She also finds herself having to face up to her relationship with Marcus Purcell. The fact that he accepts her powers scares her. Can they have a relationship and what's going to happen next with the missing women. This was an interesting read, left me wanting more and to find out what's going on. Also seeing what is going to happen to these characters in the future makes me want the next book soon! This is the first in a trilogy and while you could read it without the other Bishop/Special Crimes Unit stories it would clear up some issues. This book went so fast that I didn't even get around to putting in that it was a current read. That's pretty normal for favorite fiction authors however. Blood Dreams is similar to the other books in this series so it didn't disappoint. In fact, there was a slight twist that I wasn't expecting and the set-up for a sequel was a little more obvious than usual but this part of the story did have a definite conclusion. However, as much as I love the Bishop/FBI/Haven books, for me The Wizard of Seattle is still my all-time favorite of Hooper's books. Unbelievably awful. I wish I could say something else about this book, because I've liked Hooper in the past, but there's nothing redeeming about this book. The plot never takes off, the romance isn't compelling, the characters are flat and we're subjected to the same scene over and over and over again. What can I say, I always love Kay Hooper - Special Unit trilogies. no reviews | add a review

Dani has come home to Venture, Georgia, to comfort her twin sister, Paris, after her divorce. Or so she says. Both women know that there's really another reason that Dani has finally come home.
These sisters share a bond even closer than the normal one between twins, because they both possess psychic abilities. And Dani has been having dream visions that tell her an evil is coming to Venture, and that a showdown is inevitable.
Bishop and his SCU team have been tracking a vicious serial killer for over a month. When the demented killer made the mistake of killing a Senator's daughter, the murders in Boston abruptly stopped -- but Bishop is sure this particular killer isn't finished. And he's not, because it soon becomes apparent that he's come to the small town of Venture.
With Dani and Paris, Bishop and Miranda, John Garrett and his team from Haven (a civilian pyschic unit started by Bishop), and Venture's sherriff (and once Dani's lover) Marc, you're looking at a situation that's bound to end badly. Because this is one serial killer who is even more evil, and powerful, than any of them ever imagined.
BLOOD DREAMS is definitely a quick read, and kept me guessing throughout the story. Totally enjoyable, and it's most likely a set-up for more books centering around these characters. (
