This review was originally posted on my review blog : Falling Off The Shelf.

Livia Van Belane has lived many, many lives. She doesn't know this , and when her friends try to tell her, she thinks that they are all crazy. What she doesn't know is that she is a Soul Catcher, and her job is to rid the world of horrible banes and demons. Her friends will have to convince her of her fate, or their lives will be at stake.

Ian is Livia's soul mate, and husband. He has followed her for centuries just to be by her side. Livia doesn't always remember him in her many lives, but now is time for her soul to reveal the secrets it has been holding onto for so long. The truth is both painful, and eye opening, but it is what they need to finally be free of the demon known as Pig Face.

This book had me hook, line, and sinker from the very first page. It was one of those books that when someone tries to pull me out of it, I just about snarl at them. Yes, I can be very violent when it comes to my books and reading. I loved this book, to the point where I was sad that it had to end. Thankfully this is only the first installment of a series, so I'm eagerly awaiting more from this author.

Soul Catcher was different than any other Urban Fantasy that I have gotten my hands on as of late. It had a whole new world that I found riveting. It is full of horrible demons, and their fearsome helpers, banes. It also had creatures that were there to protect the land or their buildings called boons and pogs, which were a new thing for me to read about. I'm excited to see where this series will go next and am very greatful to have been able to review this copy.

Award winning author Deb Smith brings us a new paranormal series written under the name of Leigh Bridger.

Livia Belane is a Soul Catcher. She is able to see and banish demons back to hell. When she banishes one particular demon who is about to wipe out her whole town with the pox, it sets forth a chain of events that last for centuries. The demon is the soul mate of another demon called Pig Face who vows to kill Livia and all her loved ones in every life they live in revenge.

Livia never remembers who she is until it's almost too late. In each new life, she and her loved ones are killed by the demon. But in this particular life, Leigh starts to gain memories of her past lives and uses them as a tool to regain her full powers of Soul Catching.

When she is almost killed, she calls out for Ian to help her. Ian is her husband through all their lives, and he is a Soul Jumper. His form is never the same, he claims a body as the soul leaves. But even though he is anxious to see his soul mate Livia, she cringes from him. Because in this particular life, he's taken the form of the man who almost killed Livia.

Livia and Ian have such a beautiful love shown through their memories of lives past. Soul Catcher is a new twist to the paranormal genre with how the soul is reincarnated and that soul mates always find one another. Livia is a strong character, and Ian compliments her perfectly. It took me awhile to get the chain of events right in my head the way the story is written, but it's written that way to unveil truths as the plot unfolds. I'll definitely be picking up the next one.
