Forever’s just a word until you find
Someone worth leaving the whole world behind
OMG I loved this book so much! Charlie and Bat were adorable and so perfect together (despite the pesky fact that one of them was dead). It really was love at first fright for these two. Bat was a goner as soon as he saw Charlie arrive at Grimthorne Manor. Charlie didn’t believe in ghosts at first, but even before Bat revealed himself, Charlie was drawn into this strange connection between them.
I loved seeing these two bond as they got to know one another. Charlie treated Bat, and all the other ghosts, with respect, a stark contrast to how his co-worker, Brad, treated them. It just showed what a great guy Charlie was; I could see why Bat was drawn to him.
Bat was such a great character. He could be such a little shit sometimes (but in the best way) and then be so romantic and sweet the next. He was also super protective of Charlie before they had even properly met, and I LOVED that. No one messed with his Charlie and got away with it!
And the ghostly spice was also done so well! These two were just so good together on all levels.
“Fuck, in another life…”
“In another life,” I agreed.
There were lots of funny ghost shenanigans. I fell in love with all the ghosts of Grimthorne Manor. While there were lots of laughs, there were also (unexpectedly) lots of tears too! I cried real tears multiple times throughout this book. Just looking back at my highlighted quotes had me feeling all emo again. Don’t worry, there is a happily ever after, but yeah… expect some tears along the way.
This book really had everything. The romance and humor were great, but there was also a bit of a mystery and even some suspense toward the end. I had such a good time reading this book; Charlie and Bat will always hold a special place in my heart!
“We’re going to be epic,” I managed, grinning so hard my face hurt.
Charlie grinned back, blood on his teeth and stars in his eyes. “We’re going to be absolutely fucking epic.”
