Seventeen-year-old Pagan has spent her whole life ignoring the ghosts only she can see—until a wickedly charming (and impossibly hot) guy appears at school and actually speaks to her. The catch? He's definitely dead, and she's completely drawn to him despite every instinct telling her to stay away. What starts as a dangerous fascination becomes something far more complicated when Pagan realizes her new obsession isn't just any soul—he's Death itself, and he's about to shatter every rule in his book for her. This is a deliciously dark paranormal romance that blends supernatural intrigue with swoon-worthy chemistry and asks the ultimate question: what happens when you fall in love with the one being who shouldn't be able to feel anything at all?
