Deadly Chaos had me torn from delivering a 3-star rating and awarding a 4-star rating.  I finally decided on the four stars.  Let me see if I can explain it to you without giving any major details away.First, I love Chaos as a character.  Yes, she did irritate me but overall, she was one tough cookie, yet this gentle fragile side was kept wrapped up so tightly I was scared we wouldn't get to see it come out all the way.  We did, eventually, but I couldn't stand the fact she drug out the whole "bad things happen to people that get close to me" spiel as long as she could.  That was what made me want to give it 3 stars, because Chaos couldn't get it in her head to trust folks.  I was almost ready to scream at her.Another thing is this is a ghost story for the most part.  Chaos is seeing some crazy stuff that any logical answer will not explain and yet she still holds that " I don't believe in ghosts" alibi to the very end.  Please!The reason I decided to give it four stars was mainly because of the plot, suspense, and scare factor it had.  I loved the Native American concepts in it, Dakota was absolutely to die for, and it is a really great ghost story!  I have a hard time even watching a ghost story on TV but a ghost book is just too hard to pass up.  Also, I loved the idea of this team of ghost hunters that work so well together.  These people are so well written together.  They compliment each other nicely, especially Sheila!  I love her so much!Everyone on the ghost hunting team brings a special talent to the story that works well with each other and helps add a little suspense to it.  There is major action right dab at the beginning of the book.  And the ending is sorta of a cliff hanger and not at the same time.  The last page is what made me decide to give it the four stars.  I loved how Shelia and Kat just bombarded Chaos with some very important information ensuring she hang around a little longer.  This is a more mature novel for those over 18 to read.Overall, Deadly Chaos is a well written ghost story with a love story mixed into it.  I think it is a great read once you get moving at a steady flow with it.
