Margo's Red Light Fiction District: Read With Chips and Chocolate! - "A Ghost of an Affair" by Ellen March @BookieNookie @Ms_ellen

A Ghost of an Affair by Ellen March

Description:

Grace McGillis is over the moon to have won the love, or at least the favor, of Dr. Sage Gerret, the resident heartthrob at the hospital where she is a receptionist. Sage hopes to “improve” her: to inspire her to eat and drink less and educate herself about fine art and music. Everyone sees Sage as a great catch. Why else would Grace put up with his barbs about her appearance and his uninspired lovemaking?

Enter Breece, an adoring alpha male who is out-of-this-world in bed. That is not surprising, for he is, after all, a ghost. Though Sage may not be anyone’s dream date, he is alive. Grace is falling in love with Breece, but is love enough? Even if fate allows her ghost lover to continue his delightful haunting, how will this couple find love everlasting?

Book Scorecard

	Stars
Overall	4.5	Equal parts “Bridget Jones' Diary”, “Ghost”, and erotic fantasy. This book is like finding a secret stash of Cadbury's on a bad day.
Fantasy World	5	Dialect is perfect. Scenery is so vivid you'll find yourself craving a curry and chips.
Tingle	5	Holy shit! If I had known ghosts fucked like that, I would have bought a Ouija board 20 years ago.
Characters	4	Grace is amusing as she hides her chocolate biscuits from her humorless and controlling boyfriend, Sage. Breece is a ghost with the libido of a rabbit who is trying to figure out the afterlife.
Story	3	Follows usual romantic clichés including Grace's complete lack of self-esteem. Very enjoyable if not groundbreaking.

Summary

“A Ghost of an Affair” by Ellen March is a fun romp where the girl gets the doctor, but finds it's a lemon of a deal. Grace was flattered when she was chosen by Sage to be his girlfriend, but after 8 months of criticism and insipid sex she's ready to scream. The one thing which would make this book even better is if Grace kicked Sage to the curb before she found Breece. She's so lacking in self confidence, she clings to Sage like a lamprey even as he goes through her trash to investigate what unacceptable foods/drinks she's been consuming. Bin him already! Breece is much more exciting even if he's dead.

“A Ghost of an Affair” is a little pricey at $5 for 209 pages, but then again the really good chocolate is never on the dollar menu.

About the Author:

Hello and welcome to my corner of the world :)

I live on top of a mountain in Wales ideal in the summer not so in the winter months or when it rains, which is a lot in Wales!

My three children have left home, however my life is still manic. I live with my husband he sadly won’t leave home but I live in hope (joke). I have one suicidal cat that really does have nine lives.

I have five Alaskan Malamutes. They own me literally as I never go anywhere without taking their hair with me, they insist! My hobbies are showing and working them.

My first love though is writing, it’s a total escape for me my selfish time :) Writing my books takes me from the mundane chores of work into another universe.

Since a child I devoured any written word and enjoy acting out my fantasies in print.

My ambition is to pack in my nine to five job and become a full time writer. Another one of my many dreams. I have stockpiled work of various genres, including my first love erotic romance, followed by psychological thrillers and supernatural so be prepared I am making my mark on the world of literature
