I love Sarah Ready books. They are a must read for me. Seriously, if you have not read one of her books, you are missing out! Ghosted is an enticing paranormal romance that I found to be delightful and wonderfully narrated. As with her other books, I found this book to be gripping from the beginning and I was instantly transported into the world of Jillian and Daniel. Sarah Ready knows how to create characters that I care about. This book was not only thought provoking, but it was emotion evoking as well.
Jillian Negat writes articles about dating and relationships. Which is funny since she is socially awkward around men, barely able to speak in complete sentences around them. After she moves into a small apartment in NYC, she is soon met with a sexy shirtless man named Daniel, who just happens to be dead. Yep, her apartment is inhibited by a ghost. A ghost who initially isn’t aware he is dead and has no idea how he got into her apartment or why he is there. He also is not able to recall what his former life was like.
After they get over their initial shock of seeing each other, they begin to have fun and interesting banter. As Jillian and Daniel begin to know each other, Jillian finds that there is one man with whom she can comfortably talk. Daniel goes on a mission to help Jillian improve her articles to increase her readership and to find love. Once he succeeds, he can move on. Can’t he?
This was a delightful tale of paranormal love. I enjoyed how the characters interacted. Both were likeable and I enjoyed seeing Jillian become more self-confident and assertive. She also comes to terms with a painful part of her past and learns to forgive herself. This book does take a little leap of faith as one character is a ghost, but it is so worth it. This book had just the right amount of love, longing, humor, talk of Star Trek (Yes, Star Trek!). I enjoy how Sarah Ready works her characters likes/interests into her books with ease. Fans of Sarah Ready will enjoy this book.
I listened to the audiobook and loved the narrators. They did a fantastic job. I highly recommend listening to this book.
Well written, delightful, sweet, and hard to put down! I can’t wait to read what Sarah Ready writes next.
