A recently deceased woman meets “the one” in the afterlife waiting room, scoring a second chance at life (and love!) if she can find him on Earth before ten days are up….

If she wasn’t dead already, Delphie would be dying of embarrassment. Not only did she just die by choking on a microwaveable burger, she’s also now standing in her “sparkle and shine” nightie in front of the hottest man she’s ever seen. And he’s smiling at her.

As they start to chat, everything else becomes background noise. That is, until someone comes running through a door yelling something about a huge mistake and sends the dreamy stranger back down to Earth. And here Delphie was thinking her luck might be different in the afterlife.

When Delphie is offered a deal in which she can return to Earth and reconnect with the mysterious man, she jumps at the opportunity to find her possible soulmate and a fresh start. But to find him in a city of millions, Delphie is going to have to listen to her heart, learn to ask for help, and perhaps even see the magic in the life she’s leaving behind. . . .

This was such a cute romance read! I read this book in less than 48 hours!

Delphie chokes on her microwave burger and ends up in the afterlife waiting room. She meets a hottest man she had ever seen in the waiting room but he was sent back to the earth. Delphie wants to go back to the earth as she felt connection with him but Merrit her afterlife therapist gives her a condition–she must find this man within ten days and kiss him otherwise she will be sent back to Evermore–the name of the afterlife place. Delphie returns back to the earth and must find Jonah before it’s too late.

This was a fun read and quiet unputdownable and an unusual story filled with humor and laughter. This was also quick paced too and there were some parts in the story that will make you laugh out loud. The story is also original and unusual in its own way. The main character Delphie is a favorable character and kind of relatable to me as a reader. I do like the way Delphie was determined to fulfill her quest while on earth and many obstacles she faced. I like how slowly she and her neighbor Cooper with whom she didn’t get along relationship eventually developed. In the past, we saw Delphie as a reclusive and a bit of loner but when she returned back to earth, she started making new friends–her character grew and changed over the period of this book.

Overall, I actually enjoyed reading the book and give a full five star review!
