She's a Reaper

In the forest town of Hollow Pines, California, clairvoyant Teddy Harding talks to dead people . . . and sometimes dates them.

With her sunshiny charm and irresistible optimism, it’s no wonder 30-year-old Teddy’s earned the nickname “The One-Date Wonder” among her otherworldly social circle. She’s built a thriving career helping ghosts find closure in love, even if her own romantic life is more spectral speed dating than happy ending. But when her ghost besties stage a supernatural intervention, Teddy is forced into a horrifying ultimatum: Go on three whole actual dates with the next woman she meets or lose her connection to the spirit world for good.

Enter 232-year-old Bex Conway. Tall, scythe-wielding, and technically dead, Bex has been the afterlife’s Grim Reaper of the Month for over two centuries, until Human Resources catches wind of her . . . let’s say, unenthusiastic customer service. Now, on forced leave, she must prove she still has a heart or be banished to eternal purgatory. No biggie. She’ll woo the fabled “One-Date-Wonder” human, fake a little romance, and get back to work sucking up souls. Dead simple.

With everything on the line, Teddy and Bex agree to team up. Three fake dates, zero real feelings, problems solved, no strings attached. But as they stumble through unexpected pitfalls, things unravel. Like, apocalyptic hell-mouth-in-the-living-room unravel. Between undead exes, gossipy spirits, a supernatural-hunting mom, nosy afterlife bureaucrats, and one seriously inconvenient romantic spark, their arrangement spirals into something a lot more real . . . and very dangerous.

Turns out, fake dating the Grim Reaper is a killer way to fall in love.
