Sex and the Single Ghost — Tawny Taylor

Go ahead, make my afterlife...

THERE IS NO SEX IN PURGATORY.

Nine years ago, Claire Weiss died, which put a serious crimp in her plans. Now, she's caught in Purgatory, waiting for that Big Day when she can reanimate and return to earth and have sex at last! Nine whole days of chocolate! Cute shoes! A real beer! And, most important of all, a chance to reconnect with the object of her long-denied lust, hunky Jake Faron. The minute she materializes in front of her favorite old haunt, er, bar, Devil's Night -- complete in Halloween get-up of lingerie and high-heeled mules -- she locks eyes with Jake, who is as hunky as ever. Hard-muscled body? Check. Bone-melting smile? Check. Big... hands? Check, check, check. Goodbye, Purgatory -- Hel-looo, heaven.

The rules are that Claire has nine days to investigate her mysterious death, solve the crime, and do good deeds for others (not as easy as it seems, people) before returning to Purgatory. But she also has nine hot, steamy nights to do absolutely everything she's ever dreamed about doing with Jake. And that's a good thing, because not only does Jake have a secret that could change her whole afterlife, but he's perfectly capable of showing a love-struck ghost plenty of heaven on earth....
