I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.The Last Haunting is the seventh and final installment in Dawn Merriman's Rylan Flynn series. As with many beloved series, its ending feels bittersweet. From the first book to the last, Merriman delivered stories that were gripping, mysterious, suspenseful, and rich with paranormal intrigue.

If you’ve been following my reviews of the series, you’ll know that Rylan has the rare ability to see and speak with ghosts. Throughout the books, she has lived with the constant presence of her mother’s spirit—her mother having been brutally murdered. In this final installment, Rylan faces her most difficult choice yet: uncovering her mother’s killer or allowing her mother’s spirit to remain in the earthly realm.

There comes a time when we have to let go and move on, and The Last Haunting aptly captures this. Rylan has been holding on to the ghosts of her past, preventing her from living freely. By taking the plunge to uncover her mother’s murderer, she finally finds the strength to release the past and embrace the present, opening the door to a bright future with the man she loves.

Rylan’s growth has been such a joy to follow with her learning to trust, opening up, while deepening her bond with Detective Ford. With this installment, revelations abound. Rylan uncovers the reason behind one person’s deep resentment toward her, and this, along with other startling discoveries, builds to an exciting and satisfying conclusion.

Overall, The Last Haunting is a fitting and powerful finale to the Rylan Flynn series. With suspense, shocking revelations, and emotional depth, it brings Rylan’s journey full circle while delivering closure for the series’ beloved characters. Fans of the series will find it both satisfying and unforgettable—a perfect end to a thrilling, supernatural ride.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
