This was a new one for me. I’ve read a little paranormal romance before but never between a ghost and a human so I was intrigued to read how it worked.

I thought the author did a great job with the world building for the ghost realm because I had no issues going in between realms while reading and I found that it all made relative sense to me.

I enjoyed Ghost and Christopher as characters though I did find myself feeling more connected to Ghost. 

The relationship between Ghost and Christopher is such an intriguing one. I thought the channelling aspect was clever and not something I would have ever thought about. Not going to lie though, it did make me picture the likes of Tyler Henry being ‘channelled’ by a ghost and I’m not sure I like that picture! 😂

I did think that their relationship went from ‘get out of here’ to ‘I can’t live without you’ a little too quickly but I guess that’s what you get with Novellas. I probably would have liked an extra 50 or so more pages just to get a little more pining!

All in all, a short and sweet novella with a super interesting concept!

Thank you to GRR for providing me with an advanced copy of the book.
