It really, really can\u2019t. Naturally not everyone is blessed with the whole old-lady-from-Titanic option; drifting off into a toasty sleep, memories of making love to a peak Leonardo DiCaprio there to soften the blow of perishing. But choking to death at the age of twenty-seven? Delphie, no.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Delphie Bookham has lived a mundane and unadventurous life in her twenty-seven years on Earth when a microwavable burger changes everything. She is thrust into Evermore, where she meets Jonah, but he isn\u2019t completely dead like her, so he is sent back to the land of the living. Merritt, her Afterlife Therapist, decides to live out her romantic fantasies and sends Delphie back to Earth. \u00a0The catch is she must find Jonah and get him to kiss her within ten days. If she succeeds, she can keep living, but if she fails, she must return to Evermore forever. While on her hunt for Jonah, she realizes that maybe he isn\u2019t the one after all.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this book, Delphie goes on a journey that isn\u2019t just about finding Jonah. She had to find herself and push out of her comfort zone. She did things she would have never done before and started building connections and friendships. Delphie desperately needed Cooper\u2019s help finding Jonah, and Cooper needed a fake girlfriend so his family would stop attempting to set him up. The more time they spent together, the less important Jonah became, and I stopped even caring about Delphie finding him. I just wanted these two to see what was right in front of them. As I\u2019m partial to character-driven romance, this did not disappoint. I found myself laughing and smiling through the whole thing and cheering loudly for Delphie. This was an enjoyable ride from start to finish, and I will absolutely be picking up another book by this author.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re a fan of <em><strong>Ashley Poston\u2019s<\/strong> <\/em><strong>The Dead Romantics<\/strong>, then you should give this a try.

\/>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If she wasn\u2019t dead already, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. Not only did she just die by choking on a microwaveable burger, but now she\u2019s standing in her \u2018shine like a star\u2019 nightie in front of the hottest man she\u2019s ever seen. And he\u2019s\u00a0smiling\u00a0at her.<br \/><br \/>As they start to chat, everything else becomes background noise. That is until someone comes running out of a door, yelling something about a huge mistake, and sends the dreamy stranger back down to earth. And here Delphie was thinking her luck might be different in the afterlife. \u00a0<br \/>When Delphie is offered a deal in which she can return to earth and reconnect with the mysterious man, she jumps at the opportunity to find her possible soulmate and a fresh start. But in a city of millions, Delphie is going to have to listen to her heart, learn to ask for help, and perhaps even see the magic in the life she\u2019s leaving behind\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/smitten-recommends-banner-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"296\" height=\"72\" \/><\/p><hr \/><p><strong>Release Date:<\/strong> Jul 2, 2024<br \/><strong>Heat Level:<\/strong> Sensual<br \/><strong>Publisher:<\/strong>\u00a0Penguin Group<br \/><strong>Imprint:<\/strong>\u00a0Berkley<br \/><strong>Price:<\/strong> $10.99<\/p><hr \/><blockquote><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>\u201cTHIS CANNOT BE how I die. It really, really can\u2019t. Naturally not everyone is blessed with the whole old-lady-from-Titanic option; drifting off into a toasty sleep, memories of making love to a peak Leonardo DiCaprio there to soften the blow of perishing. But choking to death at the age of twenty-seven? Delphie, no.\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Delphie Bookham has lived a mundane and unadventurous life in her twenty-seven years on Earth when a microwavable burger changes everything. She is thrust into Evermore, where she meets Jonah, but he isn\u2019t completely dead like her, so he is sent back to the land of the living. Merritt, her Afterlife Therapist, decides to live out her romantic fantasies and sends Delphie back to Earth. \u00a0The catch is she must find Jonah and get him to kiss her within ten days. If she succeeds, she can keep living, but if she fails, she must return to Evermore forever. While on her hunt for Jonah, she realizes that maybe he isn\u2019t the one after all.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this book, Delphie goes on a journey that isn\u2019t just about finding Jonah. She had to find herself and push out of her comfort zone. She did things she would have never done before and started building connections and friendships. Delphie desperately needed Cooper\u2019s help finding Jonah, and Cooper needed a fake girlfriend so his family would stop attempting to set him up. The more time they spent together, the less important Jonah became, and I stopped even caring about Delphie finding him. I just wanted these two to see what was right in front of them. As I\u2019m partial to character-driven romance, this did not disappoint. I found myself laughing and smiling through the whole thing and cheering loudly for Delphie. This was an enjoyable ride from start to finish, and I will absolutely be picking up another book by this author.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you\u2019re a fan of <em><strong>Ashley Poston\u2019s<\/strong> <\/em><strong>The Dead Romantics<\/strong>, then you should give this a try. I think you will thoroughly enjoy it.<\/p><p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>~ Michelle<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/46oQNIn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazon<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/apple.co\/46fNTFM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iBooks<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.barnesandnoble.com\/w\/the-love-of-my-afterlife-kirsty-greenwood\/1143890951?ean=9780593816141\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">B&amp;N<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kobo.com\/us\/en\/ebook\/the-love-of-my-afterlife-1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kobo<\/a>\u00a0|\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Kirsty_Greenwood_The_Love_of_My_Afterlife?id=3n_aEAAAQBAJ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google Play<\/a><\/strong><\/p>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31375","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31375"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31375\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31383,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31375\/revisions\/31383"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31376"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31375"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31375"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/smittenbybooks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31375"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
