The Fine Line by Tracee Ford


~Synopsis~

Set in Southwestern Ohio, Dr. Matthew Gregory and Robin Hillard meet, fall passionately in love, marry, and settle into their newly restored historical dream home originally constructed in the 1800’s. However, their dreams of a happy life together are challenged by misfortune surrounding the purchase of the home. Soon, they realize that they have stepped into another world, filled with spirits, paranormal phenomenon, and unexplainable realities. The stark realizations as well as other traumas challenge their personal beliefs, the stability of their marriage and, most of all, their sanity. Matt’s logical, scientific certainties are defied when his daughter, Olivia, realizes she is a psychic medium and is able to communicate with the dead. Robin recognizes that her dreams are actually visions of the past directly associate with the previous owners of the home.

The Gregory family soon learns that there is a fine line between the world they live in and the world they can’t see. They seek direction through organized religion as well as through unconventional methods in an effort to understand the strange world of the paranormal. Ultimately, the family grows stronger and the relationship between Robin and Matt becomes unbreakable. They finally realize that they can face anything as long as they are together and have faith.

~Review~

WOW. The Fine Line blew me away. From the synopsis I knew there is a paranormal twist and I couldn’t wait to dive into it. It is what drew me to read it in the first place. Where to start… I loved how Tracee Ford started the story nicely with Matt and Robin meeting it was cute and sweet.

She starts with how broken they were from their past relationships, something everyone has a past but they define them, create the person they are now, it’s a beautiful, painful journey, something everyone has to go through so much in getting what they want in the end.

The story flowed really nicely, from their first meeting to getting to know each other.  The best is to see them fall in love. I loved their relationship dynamic how it is based on trust. The best thing for all couples to have in a relationship. When there is no trust things fall apart. They worked so hard in life for things to eventually fall into place.

Matt is divorced with a little adorable child, surprisingly sweet than her bitter, controlling and evil mother. His ex-wife scarred him with her unfaithfulness. After being with her in their suffocating so called of a marriage life he got out but is always their for his daughter, went out of his way to keep her happy and loved.

Robin has so many scars of her own, life dealt cruel hands but she is a fighter, a survivor and created a successful life of her own, her family and friends being her rocks.  The beauty of their relationship is they confided in each other found solace in their words, fought hard to be together fought demons of their past.

Enter the spice of the paranormal twist, after they got married they had taken a old house and were renovating for it to fit their needs, when strange things start happening, she tries to ignore them and as they kept living their, stranger events occur.  It when they have another battle to fight, with spirits and literally a demon. Will their relationship survive this paranormal phenomenon when Matt can’t seem to believe it? There is more to the story that meets the eye to find out more read it!!!

I really enjoyed reading The Fine Line, such a beautiful story. It had everything that I would want love, angst, scars, spirits, paranormal twist. What more could I want? There were a few grammar errors but I could overlook them and enjoy it.

My verdict? 4.5 brilliant stars
