What if the end of her life was just beginning…
If she wasn’t dead already, Delphie Bookham would be dying of embarrassment.
She’s woken up in the afterlife after choking on a microwave burger, wearing the kind of pyjamas you’d be mortified if anyone saw you in, and has crashed headlong into the most handsome man she’s ever met. Who is also dead and smiling at her.
As they talk, Delphie starts to can feel that elusive spark between them – something she’s waited her whole life to feel. Perhaps the afterlife won’t be so bad if she’s potentially found her soulmate to spend it with… That is until someone comes running in, yelling something about a huge mistake, and sends the dreamy stranger back down to earth and leaving Delphie behind.
Now the powers that be are offering Delphie a deal: go back down to Earth, find her mysterious maybe soulmate, and get him to fall in love with her. Or stay dead. The challenge? She only has ten days to find him, and he has no recollection of them ever having met…

My thoughts: this was a clever premise and a fun rom com read, when Delphie chokes to death on one of those grim microwave burgers in her ugliest nightie, and finds herself in a heavenly launderette, her life finally starts.
Sent back to life to find her soul mate and get him to kiss her, with only ten days to do so, this normally isolated introvert has to get out of her shell and hunt down the mysterious Jonah. But of course there’s lots of plot twists and along the way she makes new friends, finds herself in all sorts of scrapes, and just possibly finally understands love at the last possible moment.
This was such a fun book, I wolfed it down, enjoying every second, funny, intelligent and filled with wonderful characters.
