SOLVED. Contemporary/Paranormal Romance- Two Ghosts Fall In Love With Each Other [s]

[Ruby]

I must have read this book sometime between 1996-2000 and the book, as I recall, was probably written around that time. The cover was light pink and the author's name had an "L" in it. It was a mass market paperback and it was definitely a contemporary/paranormal romance novel.

The story was about a man and a woman who technically died but came back as two ghosts in order to help a woman. What I can recall was that the female ghost died during a routine surgery to remove her tonsils because she didn't heed doctors orders to fast before the surgery. I don't remember what the male ghost died from. In the beginning the male and female ghost bickered a lot and didn't get along and then toward the end they began to fall for each other.

I have a feeling that they needed to help this woman find love or maybe she was pregnant?

What I can recall was that at the end the female and male ghosts come "back to life," meet each other and fall in love in real life. They remember their experiences as ghosts and when they bump into the woman again she does not recognize them from their time helping her.

I would very much like to re-read this book if I can!! TIA!

Ruby, are you still looking for this or did you find it?

Ruby, I'd love to find this book too! I was going to create a new entry then came across yours.

I remember they were both assigned to help a woman. They helped that woman get into a relationship (view spoiler)[but then that guy dumps her and she finds out she's pregnant. Another guy falls in love with her despite the pregnancy and she has her HEA with him. (hide spoiler)].

If it helps, I remember a scene where the male ghost complained how much longer it took women in the shower than men, and the female ghost retorted that women need extra time to shave their legs and underarms. Weird thing to remember, but that's how it is sometimes, the oddest things just stick to my brain.

That's right! The details you mentioned above sound familiar to this book. Oh, I really wish I could figure this one out!

Ruby -- I found it! I searched on worldcat for "ghost romance" and was going by year. One book by Constance O'Day-Flannery was familiar. I looked at her other books and...it's Second Chances!
