Casket Case
He’s almost perfect.
But he works for Death.
About the Book:
Nora Clanton sells caskets. It wasn't her dream job, but it's the family business. She lives in Rabbittown, a sleepy middle-of-nowhere small community, and her only friends are decades older than her. Her life is comfortable but sometimes she finds herself wanting more.
Then Garrett Bishop turns up and sweeps her off her feet. He's handsome, charming and seems to have a good (if vague) job. There is one little thing though . . . death seems to follow him and rumours never stay buried in Rabbittown.
But when Nora finds out what Garrett has been hiding and all the ghosts left in his wake, she wonders whether it is time to lay their love to rest too . . .
Brimming with characters you cannot help but fall for, Casket Case is a heartfelt small-town romance bursting with life, heart and light. It is The Dead Romantics meets The Good Place.

My Review:
Casket Case was such a cute novel full of emotion. Nora Clanton is still grieving the deaths of her parents a year ago. She took over their casket sales business, cooping herself up either there or at home. She barely has a social life and very little desire to one out. That is, until a stranger walks through the front door, asking for directions.
Garrett Bishop is looking for one of the small-town's residents. He wasn't expecting to feel a connection with the local casket salesperson. He can't get enough of Nora and does everything he can to keep seeing her.
When Nora finds out what Garrett's job is, though, she starts questioning their entire relationship.
Casket case has a great premise. The description is what drew me in and the great characters and story kept me engaged. I love the uniqueness of the story. The characters are wonderful. I was excited at the opportunity to read the book.
I was provided a copy of this book.
