I was given this as a review copy but this has no influence on my opinion.I found this book much more intriguing than a common romance story. Elke Feuer uses the background of William and Lola's love to introduce Patrick and Josie, forging a connection between the couples which appears to be strengthened by the supernatural bond.In 'For the Love of Jazz' Elke Feuer really is the master of absorbing her reader into a beautifully formed plot and them amazing us with the unforeseen!The relationship between Patrick and Josie is filled with sexual tension, but the author leaves the reader anticipating any romance as the two continue to banter and speak in coded innuendo. Patrick and Josie use Lola and William's relationship as a reason for them not to be together, and I enjoyed the times in which both characters were possessed by the spirits of their dead relativeAside from these two Elke Feuer builds an array of peripheral characters who are all integral to the plot and who she describes animatedly. I was particularly fond of Joe, in the jazz club, but also very wary of Patrick's parents and Gary the lawyer!The story follows Patrick and Josie's investigation and Elke Feuer is clever, but subtle, in the way in which she involves the supernatural in the story and I certainly never had the ending worked out!I would definitely recommend this book, for fans of romance, supernatural and anyone who just wants a little fun!
