A romance in a haunted Manhattan landmark

Frannie, a struggling writer, encounters Elsa and her two children while wandering the famously haunted Dakota Building. The family are ghosts, bound to their home, and Frannie’s growing connection with Elsa becomes entangled with her own ambitions as a novelist. Her attempt to write about Elsa brings the book’s central tension into focus: whether Frannie can pursue a future with the ghost family without abandoning the career she wants. The setup combines a sapphic romance with questions of creative ambition, belonging, and what it might mean to build a life across the divide between the living and the dead.

Book overview

A hauntingly good sapphic paranormal romance from USA Today bestselling author Emma R. Alban.

A struggling writer falls for the hot ghost mom she meets in the iconic Dakota Building in a romance perfect for fans of The Dead Romantics.


Frannie's awful boss, celebrated literary novelist Henry L. Olsen, just told her that her latest manuscript is a dud--again. Frustrated and lonely, Frannie stomps around the ninth floor of the famously haunted Dakota Building in Manhattan, desperate for change.

And then Bridgette, the ghost of a little girl, appears and asks Frannie to play catch. Shocked, Frannie agrees and soon meets Bridgette's ghost brother, Michael...and the children's exceedingly attractive and aloof ghost mom, Elsa.

Fascinated and more than a little flustered, Frannie starts writing a book about Elsa (a.k.a. Hot Ghost Mom). While her boss is on a book tour, Frannie and Elsa slowly become friends, which blossoms into something more.

To stay with Elsa and the kids, Frannie has to either give up her ambitions of becoming a novelist or somehow free her ghost family from their immortal home. Can Frannie find a way to
write them all a happily-ever-after...life?
