I read a lot.  I'm not great at writing reviews, though, and I don't like to do it, so I only write them for my most favorite of books.  This just became one of them.  This is, by far, the sweetest m/m story I've ever read, and one of the m's isn't even human...anymore, anyway...I'm a huge fan of AJ Rose, having devoured Power Exchange and Safeword.  They still haunt me.  I didn't even know about this book until I stumbled across it on AJ's web page.The Yearning has the same, amazing writing you will find in AJ's other books, but this one has a different, much lighter, feel.  I read it in one sitting, only stopping to go pick up a pizza.  No cooking tonight!  I couldn't wait to get back to this story.  It tickled me and sucked me in right from the very first few pages.By chapter two, I was already emotionally invested with Eric, the "ghost" (but he's SO much more than that) and Justin, the human to whom Eric is anchored.  Chapter three?  OMG...I so totally want ghost sex now!!  AJ has a knack for gutting me with his stories and he did it once again.  I laughed out loud, I cried and I had several "awwww" moments...you know, like the basket of puppy type awww's?  They totally made up for the gutting.  ;O)I will also never look at little mundane occurrences the same way, like our ceiling fan light that turns itself on every night right after we go to bed, no matter what time we turn in! Making one of us have to get up and turn it off.  My husband and I joke that's its a ghost, but we never really believe that. Now...yeah...not so sure.  And the funniest thing?  It's been doing this for years and last night, it turned itself OFF before I got to the switch.  Twice!  Hmmmm....I enjoyed every second of this enjoyable read!  AJ is most definitely a "must read" author for me!  I can't wait for Queers!
