I like ghost stories,  and I like m/m's set in the UK,  they are often more realistic than romances set in the US somehow...  not that a ghost story is realistic,  but there is a groundedness to the writing and situation.  Alex is a nurse, who has had a rough day,  and comes home to find Sid,  sitting on his couch.  Squealing and running ensues,  but then he figures out that Sid is a ghost that only he can see,  and the two comes to terms with that.  It's a really sweet romance,  I like the conversations on Van Gogh, liked the cat,  liked that they watched tv together - which frankly is what most real couples do together anyways - maybe that I mean about realistic,  even with ghosts,  it has the small details that render it three dimensional and possible.  The style reminded me a little of JL Merrow - which is a compliment,  I love Merrow's work.Anyways, it's an m/m romance,  so no big shocks as to what happens next,  but it's definitely worth reading and I will look for more by LA Gilbert.
