"I LOVED this book! ...Funny, breathtaking, hopeful, and dreamy."--Ali
Hazelwood, New York Times bestselling author of The Love
Hypothesis
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.
