A disillusioned millennial ghostwriter who, quite literally, has some ghosts of her own, has to find her way back home in this sparkling adult debut from national bestselling author Ashley Poston.
Florence Day is the ghostwriter for one of the most prolific romance authors in the industry, and she has a problem--after a terrible breakup, she no longer believes in love. It's as good as dead. When her new editor, a too-handsome mountain of a man, won't give her an extension on her book deadline, Florence prepares to kiss her career goodbye. But then she gets a phone call she never wanted to receive, and she must return home for the first time in a decade to help her family bury her beloved father. For ten years, she's run from the town that never understood her, and even though she misses the sound of a warm Southern night and her eccentric, loving family and their funeral parlor, she can't bring herself to stay. Even with her father gone, it feels like nothing in this town has changed. And she hates it. Until she finds a ghost standing at the funeral parlor's front door, just as broad and infuriatingly handsome as ever, and he's just as confused about why he's there as she is. Romance is most certainly dead . . . but so is her new editor, and his unfinished business will have her second-guessing everything she's ever known about love stories.

this book isn't for everyone, but this book left me in shambles at the end. i cry when other people cried and the characters were crying and yeah it was great. the ending? i was trembling in my boots. this book spoke to my soul.
I really enjoyed this book! When I picked it up at the library I figured I wouldn't but I was pleasantly surprised. I would definitely read again. I like how the author built a world with beauty and love in death. The love story was sweet and (not having read any ghost romances before) different therefore captured my attention. I found myself wanting to play spades with Florence's family. Highly recommended the book
idk this just isn't my taste and i need to stop thinking if i just try another rom com I'll like it, but this one particularly was just ridiculous.
