Florence Day is a ghost-writer with one big problem. Shes supposed to be penning swoon-worthy novels for a famous romance author but, after a bad break-up, Florence no longer believes in love. And when her strict (but undeniably hot) new editor, Benji Andor, wont give her an extension on her book deadline, Florence prepares to kiss her career goodbye.

When tragedy strikes and Florence has to head home, the last thing she expects to see is a ghost at her front door. Not just any ghost, however, but the stern form of her still very hot yet now unquestionably dead new editor.

As sparks start to fly between them, Florence tells herself she cant be falling for a ghost even an infuriatingly sexy one. But can Benji help Florence to realise love isnt dead, after all

If you fell in love with Funny Story, This Spells Love and The Hating Game, this laugh-out-loud romance will sweep you away.

I LOVED this book. A beautiful, poignant story, full of beautiful, poignant characters at once touching, funny, breathtaking, hopeful, and dreamy Ali Hazelwood

The Dead Romantics was an absolute and unexpected delight. Voicy and quirky and fun; the pages will probably sparkle (but with black glitter) Christina Lauren

'Smart, quick, and absolutely bubbling over with love for the genre of romance itself Emma Straub

The Seven Year Slip is a gorgeous love story from one of the finest romance writers out there. I laughed, I cried, I didnt want it to end. Consider me Ashley Postons greatest admirer! Carley Fortune

We could all use a good summer ghost story, and you can't get much better than Ashley Poston's adult fiction debut Entertainment Weekly

This is a book to make you laugh and cry New York Times

A tender, nuanced love story that fans of Emily Henry will adore Red

The Dead Romantics takes so many things I lovequirky heroines, found families, cozy small towns, fanfics, GHOSTS (!!!)and gives them all a fresh, fun, thoroughly modern spin. This is truly a RomCom to die for! Rachel Hawkins

This book made me fall in love, broke my heart then reassembled it at least twice, and left me swooning. A hauntingly romantic, hilariously heartwarming story. Ashley Poston is the real deal Gwenda Bond

Poston[s] sparkling dialogue makes the characters come alive even the dead ones. Readers wont be able to put this down. Publishers Weekly, starred review
