Boy, did I love this short story! The beginning snared me and kept me reading till the end. I loved how Death changed his appearance—especially going mortal whenever she touched him. Loralei was smitten but independent and I liked that about her. Loved the name she gives Death when the cop asks her for it! The love scenes were written very tastefully. Even though, the ending wasn’t a surprise, I was just glad that it was a happy ending. 3.5 smooches, I’d say! geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Loralei has always been able to see the dead who stayed behind when they died. But when Loralei takes Death for a lover, she develops the gift of being able to call a spirit back to Earth after they have left this realm. Now she is able to communicate with spirits to help families find the bodies of long-dead and missing loved ones. But when a grieving mother and father ask her to locate their daughter, Mandy, Loralei gets more than just a body. Mandy's battered body is lying beside another girl's, and when the police dig up both girls' remains, their killer knows someone tipped them off. The killer learns about Loralei and her gift, a gift that can point the police in his direction. He's killed before. He can kill again, but Death has no intentions of losing Loralei.

This story is told through the eyes of Loralei, a woman that’s been able to communicate with the dead as long as she can remember. When Death discovers she can see him and isn’t terrified of him, he starts to visit her and they eventually become lovers. Death is a very loving and attentive partner, something that I wouldn’t have expected. I’m wondering if Death was a mortal at one time, or if he always was Death.
I liked that the tone of the story felt surreal, letting the readers know that we aren’t dealing with people or beings that are ordinary.
What I found interesting was where Loralei lived. The house and property reminded me of a gateway between life and death. Death could cross over and appear mortal and the dead could reappear again to communicate. The feeling generated with this location the author created felt like I was walking on a fence as I balanced between two worlds.
Well written with an interesting storyline, I give this story four stars.
