The Love Of My Afterlife Paperback By Kirsty Greenwood

£8.99

Released: 28th October 2024. ‘This book has it all. Humor, heart, and a heroine I was desperately rooting for. Kirsty Greenwood has a new fan!’ - Colleen Hoover, bestselling author of It Ends With Us _______________ If she wasn’t dead already, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. She’s entered the afterlife wearing the sort of pyjamas you don’t want anyone to see and finds herself face-to-face with the most handsome man she’s ever encountered. And he’s smiling at her. As they start to chat, everything else becomes background noise – until someone comes running out of a door, yelling something about a huge mistake, and sends the dreamy stranger back down to earth. In a twist of fate, Delphie is offered a deal in which she can return to her previous life and reconnect with the mysterious man she’s sure is her soulmate. The challenge? She only has ten days to find him. Ten days to make him fall for her. Oh, and he has no recollection of them ever having met… Tropes: RomCOM Found family London romance Only one bed Fake dating Virgin heroine Love triangle _______________ Praise for The Love of My Afterlife: ‘Quirky and romantic and oh so gorgeously memorable – I only wish I’d written it first! I lost a whole day to it and I don’t regret a second’ Josie Silver ‘How To Lose a Guy in Ten Days meets The Good Place … Original and romantic – I loved it’ Sophie Cousens ‘Kirsty writes like a witty dream.

    If she wasn’t dead already, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. She’s entered the afterlife wearing the sort of pyjamas you don’t want anyone to see and finds herself face-to-face with the most handsome man she’s ever encountered. And he’s smiling at her.

    As they start to chat, everything else becomes background noise – until someone comes running out of a door, yelling something about a huge mistake, and sends the dreamy stranger back down to earth.

    In a twist of fate, Delphie is offered a deal in which she can return to her previous life and reconnect with the mysterious man she’s sure is her soulmate.

    The challenge? She only has ten days to find him.

    Ten days to make him fall for her.

    Oh, and he has no recollection of them ever having met…


    Tropes:
    • RomCOM
    • Found family
