Believe in love after life.Medical illustrator Gillian Denver has a unique talent, and it’s not her ability to depict the systems of the body accurately and artistically. She can talk to spirits, only she doesn’t realize it.Peter Keith, a one-time TV sitcom star whose career dissolved from A-lister hunk, to out of shape, straight-to-cable-movie D-lister has a problem. Peter regrets decisions he … Peter regrets decisions he made in his life, and would like a do-over. He convinces Gillian to help him. One little problem, Peter is dead.
Thinking it’s her over active imagination causing her reoccurring dreams about Peter to spill into daylight hours, Gillian finds herself talking to him while she works. Together they begin to recreate Peter’s life by writing a book the way he wishes things had worked out. Gillian is not fully convinced that Peter is anything more than something she made up, a glorified imaginary friend, a new muse.
Gillian’s feelings for Peter complicate her relationships with the living. She is afraid the love she has for Peter will never be enough because she cannot give him what he really needs, a resolution to the life he wasn’t ready to leave.

Loved the concept of this book – so original! I’ve been a fan of Lulu for a while now, but I think she’s outdone herself with the tender, heartwarming, funny, and sexy as hell romance between endearing heroine Gillian and the celebrity crush from her youth, Peter Keith, who happens to be dead but not quite gone. Loving a ghost isn’t easy, and Peter has some unfinished business on earth and the life he didn’t quite enjoy but wasn’t ready to leave. Still, you’ll be rooting for this oddball couple and cheering with the twist that gives them that hard-earned HEA!
A great concept! A woman who does not realize that she sees ghosts and communicates with them like the cats she sees and the crows flying by. Then when the ghost of a deceased actor comes into her dreams she takes it as it is. Slowly but surely their relationship changes and in her dreams she can touch him ….. and more, so much more!
A great story that shows a development at Gillian outside of Peter’s mind. The story offers so much more than the ghost that takes a leading role to develop her talents from illustrator to drawing novels based on Peter as she sees him. The denouement, in one word MAGNIFICENT

Gillian Denver is a medical illustrator with a gift ~ she can see and speak to spirits. However, she doesn’t realize just how advanced her gift really is. When the ghost of Peter Keith shows up, she originally believes that he’s a figment of her imagination. Peter is a former TV star who recently passed away and is unhappy with how his life turned out. Gillian is giving him a do over as she writes a book with the way he thinks his life should have been. Gillian thinks that Peter is her muse but as her feelings for him grow, she’s not sure how things will ever work out.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review and I honestly loved it. There were a few mistakes but not enough to take away from the story. The storyline was great and the book was well-written with wonderful characters you’ll enjoy getting to know. It was a fabulous ghost story and had quite a twist at the end. I was captured from the beginning and kept hooked until the end. I’m really looking forward to the next book in the series. I highly recommend this one.

This is a NON-SPOILER REVIEW. Dead Sexy by Lulu M. Sylvian is a cute stand alone story. While I thought it started a little slow, the story does pick up and become quite entertaining. There are a lot of LOL moments interspersed with emotional highs and lows, but they work because of the character development and their backgrounds. I absolutely loved that Ms. Sylvian isn’t afraid to give her characters some hard situations to overcome. Sweet and sexy (definitely a Mature Readers Only read), this reads quicker than you would think. A fun anytime read.
