After a devastating breakup with her boyfriend, Alyssa's best fried Greg encourages her to get a job at the local paranormal research institute. Alyssa's thrown herself into her work to escape the pain and loneliness she feels constantly. She enjoys going through cold cases and seeing what she can uncover, especially with her skeptic's eye. The latest case she's delving into is a case of SHC or Spontaneous Human Combustion. Yet it doesn't exactly fit the pattern of SHC. As Alyssa is drawn deeper into the case, she's plagued by what she first believes are nightmares. Until a man rescues her from the creatures coming for her nightly, who she first believes is a hallucination, but soon learns he's a ghost...sort of. A grand plan is in the works and Alyssa is right at the center of it all...`Last Regress' is an interesting and unique paranormal romance story. You really get attached to the characters of Alyssa, Cain, and Nathaniel. I enjoyed the different ideas of what happens after death and the multiple dimensions. I wasn't a huge fan of Alyssa's to begin with because I thought she was unable to stand up for herself and was easily influenced. Overall, I felt `Last Regress' was a quick read with some creative characters and disturbing horror elements. It seems, by the ending, this may not be the end of Alyssa and Cain's story...time will only tell.
