Unruly (Soul Chasers Book 3) by Mia Monroe


Book 3 in the Soul Chasers series gives us the story of the head Chaser himself, or at least the man in charge of them all. He's paired up with the freshest newbie on the squad in order to chase down a baddie Horror, who isn't the only one reluctant to leave the mortal plane by the end.


From the blurb:

After centuries alone, he enters my life and turns my world upside down. We have a shared mission and it’s our future at stake.

My life is predictable, steady, and simple. I spend my time recruiting and training the newly departed to the Soul Chasers Society, the group dedicated to ridding the Above of the reckless spirits haunting it, and I love it. It’s satisfying and safe. A life behind the scenes suits me just fine.

Until the day that my name is on the rotation and I have to tackle the most unruly Horror yet. Its escape should be impossible, and yet, here we are. I’m even more surprised when I’m assigned to partner with the newest Soul Chaser, a handsome, unbound soul who embraces all of life’s twists and turns with open arms. We couldn’t be more different, yet there’s something about this man with kind eyes and boundless enthusiasm that draws me into his ways.

We have our hands full, and if this budding attraction has any chance of blooming, we’ll have to work together to banish the Horror and somehow figure out how our worlds continue to intertwine when it’s all over.

My life is becoming increasingly unpredictable, and strangely, I kind of like it.


Unruly is book three in Soul Chasers, an MM paranormal romance with dark themes, mid-level relationship angst, and spice. In Unruly, you can expect a buttoned-up rule follower whose loneliness is so normal he doesn’t notice it anymore, a free-spirited wild child who finds himself on the wrong side of life, a Horror refusing to follow the rules, and two men finding what neither of them expected in each other.

Farnsworth is a character that we have known about since the first book in this series. He's the man who greets all the freshly deceased Chasers before he offers them a new "life" so to speak. This means he's also the one who has to inform them of their untimely demises. Some people take more convincing than others. Our other MC, Borja, is the newest individual whom Farnsworth finds himself explaining things to.

There were a few things about Borja's onboarding as a Chaser that were not the usual. For one, as soon as Borja decides to take the offer of being a Chaser, he is already assigned a horror. And two, he is assigned as a partner to Farnsworth who hasn't been hunting in over a century or more. I was curious how things were going to go with Farnsworth being rusty and Borja being wet behind the ears.

"π™ΏπšŽπš˜πš™πš•πšŽ πšπš˜πš—'𝚝 πš›πšŽπšŠπš•πš•πš’ πš•πš’πš”πšŽ πšπš‘πšŠπš πš’πš— π™½πšŽπš  π™΄πš—πšπš•πšŠπš—πš - πš“πšžπšœπš πšœπš‘πš˜πš πš’πš—πš πšžπš™."

PSA for those reading this book, Borja is absolutely correct in that us Northeasterners do not want you showing up at our doors unexpected!! Please don't do this! I am glad Borja was informed, because I do not think things would go well for him just showing up willy nilly. He and Farnsworth already had enough on their plates without getting the cops called on them from the jump.

There was a lot of buildup when it came to the particular Horror Borja and Farnsworth were after. They still had plenty of sweet moments together, but much was focused on the severity of the escaped and what his plans could be. Farnsworth was so focused I don't think he even realized he was falling in love until it was too late. It was kind of funny, but I am glad Farnsworth got his own happy ending after all the hard work he'd done for the Chasers over his years of service.
