About this listen
Dane Jones has been touched by the spirit world. Once his powers were awakened by a cursed object, he tried to find peace with them. But the forces from beyond don’t play by the rules, and soon he’s wondering why he thought he had any hope of control over them.
Griff Warren loves Dane, and no matter how weird things may seem, he’ll always be there for him. But strange occurrences make him question if Dane’s keeping a secret, or if there’s more to the strange marks Dane bears.
Dane and Griff are thrown into more supernatural trouble than they can handle, and Janis, their psychic guide, knows it. She arranges for help from The Running Scared Paranormal guys and two strangers from the morgue, Bran and Jordan. First, they’ll lose their abilities, next they’ll have their powers challenged, and if they can’t stop what has been put into motion, no one will survive.

Story
Randy Miller wants nothing more than to make a living selling the fantastic cookies he dreams up when he’s not working as a web designer. He’s always loved baking, but he’s afraid of taking the leap from hobby to business. Mostly he’s afraid of failing, and of Eli coming up with a better recipe. Eli Canton has a crush. A big crush on someone who avoids him whenever he can. Eli loves everything about Randy, even if he’s grouchy and seems to work way too much. Eli knows he’s not all bad and hopes to have a chance with him someday.

Story
Jack Hulbert has worked at the hardware store Nuts and Bolts since he was sixteen. He had big dreams of leaving town and traveling, but five years later, not much has changed, and he worries he'll end up living the rest of his life in the small town he was born in. Hudson Carter has been working in Sacramento for the past ten years, managing a big box store. He left Foggy Basin for college in the city and he never once looked back. His parents have owned the hardware store in town for two generations, and he'd hoped to avoid the same fate.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Story
In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Wonderful story!
I really enjoyed this story and loved the continued connection between Dane and Griff. They are so close and really listen to each other and the dogs love them both too. The fact that they are feeling a pull from the vail is a bit off putting, but it’s even worse when it’s the evil forces that are pulling. These men were lucky enough to have strong friends who help them stay safe and alive and stop the evil witch and end her life. I really enjoyed this story and I recommend this story to everyone who loves mm mystery stories with a happy ending too.

Power of Friendship
I loved the book and the audiobook brought the warm feelings I had for Dane and Griff. The guys from Running Scared help out, as well as Bran Jordan. Cool when other series cross over and the reader / listener gets to reminisce about past events. As well as what will happen in the future.
The narrator Allen Jeffries is growing on me and I enjoyed this listen.

Great story
The Things We Lose is the second book in the Mystical Markings series. This book follows Dane and Griff in another haunting adventure. I love Dane and Griff together. I love the way the story is told. The world building and character development is well done. I love seeing the old and new characters in this story. I really enjoy a good paranormal story and this is a good one. BL Maxwell is an amazing author and I look forward more books by her. If you get the audio narration, Allen Jeffries does a wonderful job of narrating this series. He makes the change in characters seamlessly. I can't wait to listen to the next book. I would definitely recommend this book and series.

Traitor Revealed
This is a good follow-up to book one. We get some answers to questions raised before and get to find out who's a traitor amongst the group. I enjoyed reading this very much. I enjoyed this story even more while listening to the audiobook. The great narration by Allen Jeffries really helps to bring the story to life.
I received an ARC and this is my unbiased opinion

The supernatural evil never ends!!!
This is book 2 in the Mystical Markings series by BL Maxwell. When I saw this pop-up on Booksprout I had to grab it before it was gone. I listened to the first book, in the series, on Audible and I enjoyed it enough to want to hear more. Grabbing this story was a no brainer.
The narrator takes a little bit of getting used to, with his OTT narration, but once you start getting into the story you get used to his style. If I listened to this series narrated by someone else it just wouldn't be the same.
Dane and Griff are getting pummeled again, Dane is like a big old spirit magnet. Can't wait to see what's in-store for these guys.
Battling the bad guys, cute dogs, new friends, old friends, knowing someone is there to take care of you through it all

Loved it
I loved this book. Allen Jeffries' voice really brings this story to life. The Things We Lose is a amazing story. Dane Jones has powers that were awoken by a cursed object. He and Griff get into supernatural trouble that is to big for them. Will they survive the obstacles they face.
