Review: Sabine's, a psychic, boyfriend's body is taken over by a Dark Lifer (an evil soul who "borrows" others' bodies to do their dirty work) to take revenge on the man who killed him. Sabine goes to the only person she knows who may be able to help... Amber, a Temp Lifer (temporarily steps into the lives of people who are suffering to help them navigate through their problems). Together, they try to save Sabine's boyfriend, Dominic, and the man the Dark Lifer is out to kill.



This was a very interesting short story. There is minimal profanity and it was an interesting read. It's only 38 pages so it was a quick read as well. The writing could have been a little more refined but overall, it was interesting. I think this story has a lot of potential. ;)
