Back in 1933, he was shot and killed by his lover On! Jenn Burke’s Not Dead Yet is a funny, sexy and exciting paranormal romantic mystery with a unique premise I loved it when I read it earlier this year, and loved it just as much in audio – which, given it’s narrated by the ever fabulous Greg Boudreaux – will come as a surprise to exactly no-one.

Of course, sometimes I don’t do that because there are some narrators I dislike listening to, but when a favourite book gets paired up with a favourite narrator – Bring. And when a secret Hudson’s been keeping threatens more than just their happiness, it might mean the end of their not-life together-permanently.I know some audio listeners who prefer not to listen to books they’ve already read in print, but I’m the opposite – if I enjoy reading something, I’m always up for experiencing it again, and as I don’t have much time for re-reading, audio is the perfect way for me to return to a favourite story. Hudson broke Wes’s heart years ago-and could again, given he’s rocking a hot silver-fox look that shouldn’t be legal.Īs they work together to track down the murderer before anyone else gets hurt, it becomes clear Wes and Hudson have unfinished business. It’s just Wes’s luck that his ex-boyfriend, Detective Hudson Rojas, is assigned to the case. His latest mission brings him more than he bargained for: a very-dead actor who is definitely going to stay that way. For seventy years he’s made a “living” returning items to their rightful owners, seeing his fair share of the bizarre in the process. As an immortal not-ghost, he can transition between this world and the otherplane, which makes him the perfect thief for hire. Then he wasn’t-though he’s not exactly alive, either.
