First thought: Sci-fi and Paranormal Romance is not really my thing but this one intrigued me. I really enjoyed it, kept me on my toes with a few plot twists. If you like the movies: Ghost or Just Like Heaven, you’ll like this one.

Jillian is looking for love. She works as a relationship advice columnist and yet she has one major issue: she can’t talk to men. She’s never been great at it but after loosing a loved one 9yrs ago it’s gotten worse and she can’t even get a hello out. So it made it very challenging to find the love of her life as you can imagine.

She just moved into a new apartment in NYC closer to her job and its wall to wall mirrors and came at a low price she couldn’t pass up. No one told her it also came with a hunky, shirtless, man like ghost! Jillian is a rational person, she loves sci-fi and is a Trekkie but even a hot ghost is a far stretch for her to process.

Daniel is drawn to Jillian but he can’t remember his past all that he knows is she’s his light. After the initial shock of his presence, and him accepting he is a ghost they hit it off. Daniel is the one guy Jillian can actually talk to, so it figures he’s dead!

Daniel decides he’s there to help her with her issue talking to men and her job sink her reviews at work have been bad, no one wants her relationship advice. He has lots he can teach her and maybe by helping her, he can move on. But as things develop he quick realizes maybe he doesn’t want to…

I have read other books by the same author and I will always cherish her stories.
At first, I was skeptical of the premise that this was going to be a book that I would not like. You know when the author hits her limit of the year of writing good books, goes into a slump then comes out with good books again but I was so wrong. I loved all the characters. Jillian and Daniel are *cries in the corner*
Sarah Ready has a way of writing emotions and they are so raw and heartbreaking. This is the kind of love everybody deserves. The unconditional love we all came to know. Don't get me wrong these aren't fairy tales they are just so tragically beautiful.
Her books have great plots which are well-constructed and orchestrated.
There were so many questions that came up like who is this guy? How did he die? and why is it that only Jillian can see him and nobody else can? I was sure there was going to be a screwed-up explanation in the end which wouldn't make sense but I was wrong. But it was handled really well and almost scientifically possible sort of way.
I ALWAYS recommend Sarah Ready's books and I will always stand in any line to get physical copies signed by her. If at all. Sadly having her books shipped to my India costs a lot so I end up buying the kindle versions of the ones which I have loved a lot.
Thankyou to the publisher and Netgalley for sending me an ARC of this book.

I requested this because I really liked the Space Between, so I knew that I would like this one. Intuition was right, and she didn't disappoint.
Jillian is just like me for real, talking to men is scary. Falling in love with a dead man is crazy--you finally find a man that's easy to talk to and it turns out bro is dead?? I think I would actually lose my mind.
This book was fun--ghosts just existing in an otherwise contemporary romance novel that doesn't have paranormal elements is cool, and I really like the message that they have to help each other to move on. Daniel helps her start to open up and talk to men, while also giving her someone who is willing to listen. When she opened up to him about why she couldn't it actually killed me. How she helps him really isn't explained. He finds out he's dead, obviously, and they have a connection, but then he just up and disappears. Left us all hanging really. I was a little worried that they wouldn't have their HEA. Which like it isn't required in romance, but I would have been a little disappointed.
Only reason it isn't getting 5 stars is because it was a little difficult to get into at first.
Thanks again to netgalley, the publisher, and to Sarah Ready for the opportunity to read this book.

An interesting read. I hadn’t read a supernatural romance before (not sure if You’ve reached Sam falls into that category but closest comparison I can think of), so I went into it unsure what to expect, but was pleasantly surprised, especially in the second half. I was sceptical with how the author was going to make it work but she pulled it off thankfully, as I was nervous to root for a couple when it seemed a complete waste of time! This book was funny, heartbreaking, and heartwarming, dragging the reader through a gamut of emotions. Looking forward to reading more from this author. Thanks Netgalley.

I loved this book so much!! It came out in September so I received the digital ARC after it was published and just got around to it, but I'm kicking myself for not reading it sooner because it was that good. I was actually able to get the audio download from my library so I could read and listen at the same time and the bright side of just now reading it is that the next one comes out in February so I was able to get it on here and have already started it; I am PUMPED. This is the first book I have read by Sarah Ready and I really enjoy her writing. It's funny, heartfelt, anxiety-inducing at times and definitely kept me on my toes. The twist was not at all what I was expecting and the premise was so unique. It was just so "fucucking" good (iykyk) and Daniel and Jillian are lovable, entertaining main characters.

It's really fun that Jillian's the only one who can see/hear Daniel so she has to try to communicate with him without looking crazy and I love that he keeps a running dialogue regardless of where she is. The way they just make each other happy whether arguing (but not realllly arguing), pointing out something the other would like, or when Daniel is trying to coach her on how to pick up a man. I was wondering why Jillian has trouble talking to men but keeps going on blind dates knowing that they will be awful but once that's explained it feels more realistic.

Jillian's coworkers and Fran are also great comic relief and I love the camaraderie and support they provide. Even if they're not all particularly likable at times, they are always protective of Jillian. Jillian and Daniel show that love transcends time and space and what's considered possible. They are both all in and it's definitely more effort on Jillian's part and more of a "sacrifice" in some ways to be falling for someone that you can't touch or prove is really there. It's really a great love story, that's light and fun but doesn't shy away from deeper topics and creates a world/atmosphere that the reader can feel like they are a part of or picture themselves in.

Ghosted is a 5 star read for me and I really recommend it to all romance readers and those who like opposites attract, nerdy FMCs, dating coaching, found family, Star Trek, and love without boundaries.

I read and listened to this one so I can attest to both the fantastic writing and engaging narration. Whether you read or listen to Ghosted you will not be disappointed, but if you can do both at the same time, I think that's a great option!

Thank you NetGalley and W.W. Crown for the digital copy. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I really loved this novel from Sarah Ready and it may even be one of my favorites from her. I instantly fell in love with the main characters, Jillian and Daniel. Throughout the story, Ready took her readers on a rollercoaster ride of feelings while provoking all the thoughts and emotions. I loved the paranormal aspect, as well.

I had a hard time putting this one down and couldn’t wait to know how it would wrap up, while simultaneously never wanting it to end! I can’t wait for the next in the series to be released.

The cover of this one is absolutely stunning. I love a good story with ghosts or anything to do with paranormal.

I enjoyed French Holiday a lot so I really look forward to reading this book. Jillian is relationship expert except that she can't speak to men in real life. She moves into a cheap NYC apt where she sees a ghost, Daniel. Daniel is convinced that he can move on to the next life after he helps her.

A fun book. Love the ghost and magical part. Very nice pacing. and a very cute story. I love how Daniel and Jillian got together. Their interactions are so cute! Daniel is swoony and i love his speeches especially.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

Thank you to NetGalley, publisher and author, for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
The beginning of the story was funny and cute, it had me hooked and looking forward to keep reading. My favorite characters were all of them! This was a cute and heartwarming story. I am not usually a fan of romantic stories but I enjoyed this one.

I went into this book thinking it’d be a funny little rom com sort of book, no. It ripped my heart out and REPEATEDLY stamped on it. The first half I was feeling very 👀 about this I’m ngl, I was questioning the entire plot and what was going to happen. The second half …. BOY when I say I wasn’t ready!!!! I didn’t expect to enjoy this as much as I did, it made me feel so many things - I spent most of the second half just sobbing or grinning like a loon. PLEASEEEEE IF U LIKE ROMANCE PLEASE READ THISSSSS YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED (but you may cry your heart out)

Ghosted by Sarah Ready is a love story about a couple destined to be together, no matter how it has to happen. It started out a little strange but then started to make sense. Very enjoyable and satisfying love story. It looks like this is book 1 of the series so I'm interested to see where this series will go!

WOW this book surprised me! When I read the blurb, I thought how is this going to make sense with a seemingly dead MMC and a very much alive FMC?

Well wow the author was so original with this idea! I think many people who read the book will say that it can be divided into two parts - one when Jillian meets and interacts with Daniel, and two after Daniel is gone and how Jillian deals. All in all, I’d definitely reccommend it!

Special thanks to NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book! All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Ghosted is not for everyone, I am sure that there are plenty of people who would not like this book, but I am not one of them. I have a thing about ghost books, in that if the story is girl falls in love with ghost I will read it. I blame reading Meg Cabot's the Mediator series as a tween. So needless to say, I absolutely loved Ghosted. I love that it is a different twist on this rare trope (I won't spoil anything for you). I loved all the characters. It made me laugh, even more surprisingly it made me cry.

This novel is a captivating and delightful read that exudes a fun and lovable vibe. The story is filled with love, mystery, and an irresistible charm that draws you in. The romance between the characters is so compelling that it makes you fall head over heels for the love interest. With its engaging narrative and lovable characters, it is a must-read for anyone who enjoys a heartwarming and entertaining romance novel while keeping you on your toes wondering where the story is going to lead.

This is a funny and sweet romance. Jillian is a relationship specialist who can’t talk to guys, she literally freezes up. When she moves to a new apartment, she finds it’s already occupied by a hottie named David. Unfortunately, David is a ghost and Jillian can talk to him, no problem.
Suddenly they’re falling in love even though they have no future, or do they? 4 stars.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed as in this review are completely my own.

I was very intrigued by the premise of this novel because I had no idea how it could possibly end happily. But Sarah Ready did a great job explaining how exactly things came about and then preceding to resolve it. I really enjoyed the idea and the characters and watching to see things how played out. I look forward to reading more of Sara Ready in the future.

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for providing me with an arc for an honest review.

This is a beautiful paranormal romance story that I have ever read.
Daniel is a handsome ghost who doesn't know he is dead and is staying in a small apartment in NYC with Jilian who owns the place. He is unable to recall his past life or why he is in the apartment.
After the initial shock of seeing each other, they bond and enjoy each other's company. Initially Daniel tries to improve Jilian's dating life, later they get romantically involved which becomes challenging.

I would like to thank the author for the ARC in exchange of an honest review.

This year I was introduced to the genre of paranormal romance so I wanted to give this one a try. Love loved it! Such a cute and creative spin on the romance genre. Lovable, relatable characters, and kept my interest from the very beginning. Have recommended to several others since reading.

I’m not sure how I feel about this one. I have read books that are part ghost romance and I loved them, I just don’t know what happened with this one and why I didn’t have a great time reading it.

Urgh. Can’t even. One of my faves of the year, for sure. This was just 🫠 at so many points. Jillian discovers a ghost in her new apartment, and he seems to know her though he can’t explain why! They develop a wholesome relationship and Jillian finds herself falling for someone who isn’t truly there.

I knew this would break my heart as soon as I started it. I knew they had some deep connection in another time. I knew they would fall in love and it would be impossible. I couldn’t put it down. Jillian and Daniel’s relationship, when it can’t be physical, is so sweet. And when she meets him in real life and he doesn’t know her - 😭😭😭. Her fight for them to get where they are meant to be is beautiful and sad, it left me all over the place in the best way. At the same time, their easy banter and affection for each other is so funny and cute. Also - shout out to that adorable side romance between Hayley and Bernardo ❤️. And, on top of what was already a phenomenal sorry, those epilogues left me deceased - too poignant. Sarah Ready is the queen of amazing epilogues that just totally melt you.

I’m so in awe of authors that can write paranormal romances like this, because it must be so tricky to manage all the components and timelines! Sarah Ready does this masterfully and it’s such a page turner. I honestly think I will read and live anything she writes. I am very confused as to why her books are not a bigger deal?!

What to expect:

- paranormal romance
- opposites attract
- painfully shy FMC
- forced proximity
- soulmates ❤️
