About this book

Sadie Crawford is a woman of science who never entertained the idea of the afterlife, until she finds herself haunting the very hiking trail where her life was abruptly cut short. As a ghost tethered to the mortal realm, Sadie faces a chilling reality: she has been murdered, and her killer is still on the loose. With time running out, she must turn to the one person she once pushed away for his unconventional beliefs.

Asher Brenner is a psychic whose supernatural talents were the reason Sadie ended their relationship. Now, she must swallow her pride and seek his help to solve her own homicide. This second-chance romance creates a high-stakes, slow-burn tension as the pair navigates the boundary between the living and the dead. As their investigation deepens, they discover a dangerous conspiracy that threatens not just Sadie’s memory, but Asher’s safety as well.

Blending gripping suspense with a touch of magic, this novella offers a unique take on the paranormal genre. It is a heartwarming story of found family, redemption, and the enduring power of love that transcends even death. Perfect for fans of clean, action-packed romance, this tale proves that sometimes the most important connections are the ones we almost leave behind.

Just shy of 5 stars

August 18, 2019

This was a really good story. The only reason I say \"just shy\" of 5 stars is because I figured out the twist quite early and thought it was just a bit predictable. Nevertheless, it was a very satisfying read. And since Sadie is dead, there are no over-the-top sex scenes - so a very big plus for me. Read it - very enjoyable. ) One person found this helpful

First book in series is romantic and compelling

November 16, 2019

I had read other books in this series and liked them a lot, and the first book is no exception. Samet focuses on the romance, but the stakes of the thriller part give the book urgency. And, like the other books in this series, Samet has a great handle on her two main characters—in this case, Sadie, the ghost trying to solve her own murder, and Asher, the one who got away all those years ago. I found myself rooting for Sadie and Asher from the get-go. Both of them are flawed, but it's easy to...

A beautiful romance with a mystery to solve.

Humm I thought I already sent in my review but I’m happy to send in another. The story starts out well and just gets better. A lot of story packed into a novella. The passion was amazing and their adventure together went rather smoothly. The ending was a complete delight. Read this book you will enjoy it too. ) One person found this helpful
