Publisher Description
NAMED BY THE NEW YORK TIMES AS ONE OF THE 10 BEST ROMANCES OF 2023: "A weird, adorable stunner of a romance."
Death needs a do-over.
Azrael—angel of death, grim reaper, destroyer of worlds—has messed up. Instead of taking Molly Molloy's soul, he patted her on the back and saved her from choking on a chicken wing.
Now this extraordinarily ordinary New York City waitress can see him. Talk to him. Touch him. Say 'no' to him. And make him question every assumption he has about what it means to live.
The Powers that Be are impatient with him to fix his mistake but before he can, Death makes one more.
He falls in love.
