The cards tried to warn me – I just didn’t want to believe themI don’t want to believe that the psycho, who nearly killed us once, is now stalking me with an offer I can’t refuse. Or that starting a Private Investigation agency with my mates is a bad idea. I sure as hell don’t want to believe that my next mate is cursed and living in a haunted mansion.Yeah, I’m living with a lot of denial—and … a lot of denial—and that’s not healthy for me or my mates.
But that’s not stopping us from starting the Tarot Arcana PI Agency – we’re like PI’s for the other side, when the dead have nowhere else to turn. And of course, our first client is the young girl whom my next mate is suspected of murdering. He’s the one that’s cursed.
About that family curse? It shrouds his aura, blocking his past life so he can’t receive the vivid recollections I’m getting—of when we met and how we instantly fell in love—until it all went horribly wrong. Still, our love has endured across millennia and countless lifetimes—it keeps bringing us back to fix this and if I can’t lift the curse, we’ll have to try it all over again in another lifetime.
According to the cards, breaking that curse will cost him everything, and I’ll have to accept an offer I can’t refuse.
The cards don’t always tell me what I want to hear…but they do tell me what I need to know.
Case of the Covered Hermit is a Reverse-Harem Paranormal Romance featuring multiple love interests, a slow burn focusing on emotional connections with a steamy fade to black, and the reincarnation of the oldest recorded reverse harem story in human history. Oh yeah, and lots of tarot cards. This is the third book in the Tarot Arcana Mysteries series, with cliffhangers to the final two books.

This is book three of the Tarot Arcana Mysteries series and sees Dee and her three soulmates, Shay, Yuri and Bo, as well as her roommate and best friend Mel, deciding to make their union official by setting up a corporation together. After the disaster of attempting to be a Private Investigator and not all of them having clean records, they decide on setting up Tarot Arcana PI (Paranormal Investigations) Agency, because basically that is Dee’s strength and is what has pulled all of them together. Their first client is a young girl Dee heard calling for help, and when she sees a paper the next day, she recognises the girl and knows that is where they have to go next. They arrange some out of the way accommodation at a supposedly haunted inn, run by a man called Austin, whose family seem to be under a curse. He lost his younger brother Cal and his parents, all in a car accident years ago and all he has left is this huge house that the family were going to start up as a business. His grandfather Bill wasted all the money his ancestors had earnt and ruined the lives of all who followed. His presence is still felt in the top floor of the inn, near Austin’s mother’s art room. They are offered a choice of rooms and to go help themselves, whilst Austin speaks with the town sheriff. Many in the town believe Austin is the killer of this young girl, as her body was found in one of the sacred places his father built on their land.
It turns out that Austin is soulmate number four, but he has none of the shared memories the others did before they met, and his aura is shrouded by what she presumes is the family curse. It is blocking his ability to access the same recollections the others have and to even begin to realise any link between himself and Dee. He is the reincarnation of the first of the brothers she fell in love with, the winner of the archery challenge her father set for her hand in marriage. But their union did not end well, falling apart horribly as he tried to set matters in motion back then, against tradition and against her wishes, leaving her angry and ignoring his needs. Now they have another chance to fix what they did wrong together in that life, but it will be impossible if he can’t even remember her! The cards seem to be leading Dee to do something with the very man who tried to kill them all, whilst breaking Austin’s family curse could cost him everything. An offer is coming that she can’t refuse and they have to stop Austin being lynched by a group who want the Confederacy to rise again and need him out of the way to gain something hidden away on his lands. The spirit of Cal is a great addition to the tale and e is lingering for a specific reason, but not necessarily the one he thinks he is there for! He makes friends with Dee instantly and manages to persuade Austin of the truth of some of her powers, also helping to warn them of danger. Danger is also chasing after some of the ones they love and Dee will have to try and figure out some of her next steps without any guidance. Solving the young girls murder and setting her spirit free, leaves her vulnerable to Boomer and his bosses, whoever they are, as they are keen to exploit her talents for their own sick purposes. Austin is a very reluctant soulmate and it will take some effort before he is ready to take the next step and be joined with her, as they were in the past. Another fantastic read in this series and only two more to come, I can’t wait! I received an ARC copy of this book from BookSprout and I have freely given my own opinion of the book above.

A beautifully written book with an interesting story line. The characters are strong, and the story flows quickly and smoothly. I enjoyed reading this story.
This is the third book in the Tarot Arcana Mysteries. It’s a paranormal reverse harem. You really need to read this series in order so if you haven’t read the first two books, I recommend you read them first if you don’t, you’ll be missing a lot of important info. So far Dee has found three of her soulmate’s, Shay, Yuri, and Bo but there are still two more missing that must be found. They must be reunited in this lifetime, or their connection will be lost forever. Finding lost soulmates is a hard job but Dee has her men, best friend Mel, her Nana, and the ghost of her father. While searching for lost soulmates they end up helping people along the way. Fun, entertaining series so far, can’t wait to read book four.

I found it equally hard to put this down as I did with the first two books. I loved the story, all the twists and turns, I’m never quite sure what is going to happen next. The characters are great and meeting another soul mate is such fun. I love the lore and backstories worked in the story.
Five out of five stars.

When deciding to use her psychic powers to help the dead, Dee, her men and her best friend get involved in a murder investigation of a young girl, with her fourth soulmate as the main suspect. While looking into this murder, they also have to find a way to lift the curse that prevents the connection with her fourth soulmate and they have to deal with Boomer who keeps immerging himself into their lives.
I like the different storylines that merge in this book. This is the third book in a series, and every one of them has a storyline completely on its own that finishes when the book is finished, but in the mean time all books are connected by a bigger story. I like that because you never have to close the book in a heartwrenching cliffhanger, but you also look forward to finding out how the lives of Dee and her men unfold. There were a lot of elements I liked in this book: it had plenty of action, detective work, surprises, interesting characters, suspense, … The only thing that prevents me from giving this book a five star rating is that the fmc keeps getting on my nerves. For some completely personal reason I can’t fully connect with her, and that prevents me from fully enjoying the potential of this series. Nonetheless this is a really good book, with plenty of other interesting characters that I do feel more connected to. So I’m definitely gonna keep on reading the rest of the series.

This book is another excellent addition to the series. It is well written and the characters and story are well developed. I love seeing how the relationship dynamics between everyone change and evolve through the books. The story is action packed and full of twists and turns. It has suspense, intrigue, emotion, hot chemistry and romance. I’d highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next one!!
If you have not tried these books, you don’t know what you’re missing! Dee has reconnected with three out of five of her mates from eons ago. I really like how once they spend time with her, memories of their first life together (about 7000 yrs ago) comes back a bit at a time and their connection strengthens. Her fourth mate, Austin, was the first love of her life in the beginning of time but something happened between them that has damaged their bond. Aside from that, his family is cursed and he is charged with the murder of a young girl. I love how Dee is getting a better handle on her powers and Nana is still there to lend a hand. She helped some spirits pass on and she is starting to trust herself a bit more each time. I was so touched by how she connected the murdered girl, Mary Lou, with Austin’s brother, Cal. Both have been alone for so long. Cal since his passing numerous years ago and Mary Lou during her lifetime no one cared for her. That was one of the best parts for me. Actually, there are several “best parts” as far as I’m concerned. This series keeps getting better and better. I requested an advanced reader copy from Booksprout and am under no obligation to leave this review.
Case of the Covered Hermit by Mika Kosey is the third book in the Tarot Arcana Mystery series. This book is about a psychic tarot reader who while searching the world for her forever mates travels around with her best friend and mates solving cases for the dead who can not get help anywhere else. This is a fun and unusual reverse harem story that involves lots of mysteries and paranormal surprises. If you enjoy a steamy romance with lots of added excitement you will love this book as much as I do. Case of the Covered Hermit is a fun and steamy paranormal romantic adventure tale.
Dee continues her adventures with the three husbands that she has found from her past life. Now to find the next one and she finds him. Arjuna. This book is as good as the previous two in this brilliant series. Loved it and cannot wait for the next one.
I’m loving this series! Dee and her men and her best friend Mel are on the road looking for her 4th Mate when she gets a vision/calling from a young girl looking for help. That leads them to a small town, and of course her new Mate. He hasn’t has the dream like Yuri, Bo and Shay but that doesn’t deter Dee. There is a new mystery to solve, one that will help the girl and her Mate, so the madness and mayhem continue! Just when she thinks things may going smoothly her life goes sideways when her grandmother goes missing and she realizes she just may know the identity of her 5th mate, and that terrifies her. I can’t wait for the next one!!!
Dee and her mates are on the road again, when the discover that the man who nearly killed them is now stalking her. They are heading east, in their directions that Dee is certain she will find another of her mates, when she is contacted by the ghost of a young girl who was murdered. The Tarot Arcana PI Agency is born after Dee’s best friend joins them on the road, and their first case will be to prove that Dee’s mate did not murder the young girl. Unfortunately, Austin, her new mate, is cursed and it cloaks his aura, so he has no memories of their past life, and their love. To top it all off, when Dee does a reading of her cards, she will find out that if, or when she manages to break the curse, Austin will lose everything.
Sexy, unique, and beautifully well written characters who will fight to protect one of their own from a group determined to change the past. Exciting read, with some action, a mystery, suspense, and magic. I loved this book, and this series. I think this was the best one yet, and look forward to the next book in this imaginative, and compelling series. Fantastic book!
I am voluntarily leaving an honest and non-incentivized review of this ARC.
ONE COLORFUL ADVENTURE!!!
Unbelievable! Mika charted a new course, gauged the compass and masters the seas with this engaging delight, blazing through melding this baby together piece by piece. Shenanigans, mayhem, chaos, wierdo’s, ghost and psycho’s set the pace, spinning this bad boy into a tailspin exposing unforseen impacts. Action, drama, danger and suspense rule the roost in this thrilling storyline and gripping plot that blasts this jewel to life flawlessly. Add distress, intrigue and turmoil along with a boatload of mysteries, toss in a little humor and you have one exciting adventure. Ok, maybe just my sense of humor, I am wierd like that. Jumping hoops, coping with the trials and tribulations keeping pace with sharp twists, clean turns and thin lines launching this baby forward sleek, shiny and tight. The realism and authenticity of the characters as their on point personalities blend and flow along with the colorfully detailed scenes paint one fantastic backdrop that makes the storyline pop. Awesome job Mika, thanks for sharing this little gem with us.
