Tag: The Dead Romantics book review

My Rating: 🍪🍪🍪🍪
Genre: Romance

Florence spent a lot of time during her childhood at a funeral home – the family business, especially notable since she has the ability to see ghosts. When she returns home unexpectedly for her father’s funeral, she finds that the ghost of her hot new editor, Benji, has come with her.

I really loved the romance in this book. Florence and Benji have palpable chemistry, particularly impressive since he’s a ghost for most of the book, and I was holding my breath to see what would happen with the two of them. There’s a mystery swirling around Benji’s life and death and why he seems to be following Florence, and the exploration of it unfolded very naturally.

The book also included a storyline about Florence’s work as a ghostwriter for a well-known romance author and her struggle to come up with her next book following a brutal breakup.

This was such a lovely mix of eccentric family, romance, career, and grief (and a little bit of paranormal obviously) and it made for a well-rounded story that was unique and hard to stop reading. I loved the conclusion and how wonderfully everything came together.
