Orion Casket Case

This was one of the sweetest books ever. Okay, five stars for the vibes alone. This may be my favorite romance of the year. Would happily read anything else Lauren Evans publishes. I am so seated for this! He's almost perfect, but he works for Death. Nora Clanton sells caskets. It wasn't her dream job, but it's the family business. She lives in a sleepy town in the middle of nowhere, and her only friends are decades older than her. Her life might be comfortable, but sometimes she finds herself wanting more. Then Garrett Bishop turns up and sweeps her off her feet. He's handsome, charming, and seems to have a good (if vague) job. There is one little thing though: death seems to follow him, and rumors never stay buried in her tiny town. But when Nora finds out what Garrett has been hiding and all the ghosts left in his wake, she wonders whether it is time to lay their love to rest too. Brimming with characters you cannot help but fall for, Casket Case is a heartfelt small-town romance bursting with life, heart, and light. It is The Dead Romantics meets The Good Place.
