Summary

Evan only wanted a cheap apartment close to campus. What he got was a roommate—one who happened to be invisible, sarcastic, and very much dead.
 
Logan died too young, tethered to the place he once called home, passing the days with jokes, pranks, and restless silence. Most tenants fled at the first sign of him, but Evan doesn’t scare so easily. He argues, negotiates, and even sets ground rules. Against all odds, their banter turns into something far deeper.
 
But falling for someone who doesn’t technically exist isn’t simple. Nights filled with laughter turn into conversations that strip down walls neither of them expected to lower. Evan finds himself drawn to Logan’s warmth, even as Logan admits the truth he can’t escape—he may not be able to stay forever.
 
Torn between logic and longing, Evan faces the impossible: how do you hold on to someone who belongs to the afterlife?
 
With heart, humor, and a dash of haunting mischief, Roommate From the Afterlife is a tender, clean paranormal romance about two souls who find connection where no one expected it.
 
Can love outlast the boundary between life and death—or will it vanish like a whisper in the dark?
 
***
 
Part of the Otherworldly Hearts series, this story brings its own magical twist to love and laughter.
 
Otherworldly Hearts proves romance can bloom anywhere through time, across magic, even out among the stars. This clean MM romcom series pairs oddball characters with laugh-out-loud disasters and tender connections in worlds where the impossible feels almost ordinary.
 
Spells backfire, ghosts meddle, shifters wrestle instincts they’d rather ignore, and aliens stumble their way through the messy art of love. Each standalone story mixes comedy, warmth, and a romance that stays sweet but never boring.
 
Sometimes the strangest places lead to the most unexpected happily ever afters.
Available since: 09/01/2025.
