This was a cute & cozy fantasy romance. Although the setting may be morbid in topic since it's the undertaker business and to do with souls/death. I really enjoyed this and it was a fun, quick read. I laughed so many times from the sarcasm and I love when a book can do that.

Hart and Mercy were cute. They have the "I hate you for being so hot" vibes and are oblivious to their feelings for each other. There are some steamy scenes and there is mid-size/plus-size rep.

If you're going into this for massive world-building, don't. It is a some what straight forward plot with a pantheon of gods, old and new which it does get into and the overall it is a romance. But, don't expect something hyper detailed.

If you like the sound of a cozy fantasy romance, with oblivious love interests, sarcasm, some steamy scenes, pen-pal trope, 30+ year old characters, cute families, & lgbtq+ rep then I'd definitely recommend this!!
