Review:   
I received this book as part of a blog tour in exchange of an honest review.
I really enjoyed the two previous books in the series so I couldn’t wait to see how Raine and Kas’ story would end.
Just when Raina starts believing she will be able to start a life with Kas, the Ghost involves her in his dangerous games again, making Kas so desperate he will do anything it has to be done to keep Raina safe.
I really liked Kas in this book. I mean, I liked him in the other books but he was even better in this one.
He’s strong, protective, determined and all around kick-ass.
Raina was great as well. She’s strong and willing to do whatever it takes to move on. She’s definitely not a victim. She’s a survivor and a fighter.
This book picks up where Healing Rain ended. The plot is fast paced and full of action. There are a few twists and surprises in this book, which I quite enjoyed.
All in all, After The rain is a great end to Raina’s story and I really did enjoy it. The book is well-written, fast paced and very interesting.
If you haven’t already, I would advise you to start reading this series!

Summary:  
Shattered when Raina runs after his marriage proposal, Kas is hell-bent to find her and bring her home, where she belongs. He will bend every law necessary to do so, willing to do anything to protect Raina from her demons and the men who haunt her, going as far as placing his career and life on the line to save hers. Raina will give up everything she has worked so hard to achieve, even flee the country to keep Kas from the wrath and powerful reach of her abusive father.

In the midst of the FBI team closing in on the Ghost, another ghost from Raina's past taunts her, promising that she will be his. Meanwhile, a different trafficking ring is gaining strength in New Jersey. Michael solicits Raina's help, needing her smooth, sultry voice to win the audition for the new singer in the ring leader's swanky night club. Raina knows her life is in jeopardy with the dangers of being undercover, but she is blindsided when she discovers that it's her heart that is threatened with a mortal blow.
Raina tries to heal from the nightmares of her dark past as the grisly bodies of innocent victims surface when the team gets closer to discovering the identity of the man responsible for the infuriatingly clever and powerful slavery ring. When Raina finally comes face to face with the Ghost, he quickly engulfs her in a twisted game of cat and mouse, delivering a veiled threat as he slips through her fingers. As the ghosts of her past and present ensnare her in their deadly web, Raina realizes the danger has just begun.

Review:        

I have received this book from the author in exchange of an honest review.

After Saving Rain I was curious about Healing Rain and wanted to see how the story would develop.

After Raina runs away after his marriage proposal Kas is determined to find her and show her they belong together. The problem is, her past is once again catching up with Raina as the FBI tries to finally catch the elusive Ghost.

Raina is back and she’s still a great main character. She’s smart, strong and determined even when she feels she’s weak. She has finally begun healing and I couldn’t help wanting things to work out for her.

Kas is back as well and, even though he can be a little overprotective sometimes, I still like him. He supports Raina when she needs it and is definitely good at what he does.

Plot wise, Raina’s past is back to haunt her again as the FBI tries to catch the elusive Ghost. Raina has to be strong and find a way to help them catch the man who has haunted her.

All in all, Healing Rain is a wonderful book. It is very well-written and emotional and I loved the little surprises.

I can’t wait for the next book in the series!
