As Cal attempts to rid himself of the ghost by any means, he begins to fall for the attractive attorney representing the estate. Will Cal be able to begin a new relationship, or will he be seduced into the ever after?

delightful!!!!

story itself is funny and warm, so good that i'm finna scour amazon, audible and overdrive for everything thornton has ever written. and the audio performance is fantastic. Each character is so distinct that i truly have trouble believing they are all performed by one person.

The ex that wouldn't go away

Let me start by saying that I truly enjoyed the performance of James Frazier in this book. All of the characters were distinct and his portrayal of Mac's character really brought him to life so to speak.

Mac was a mess. The writer wrote all the characters with true and believable flaws. The Barnyard Players were a mess. All they cared about was getting money to keep their theater going. I loved Dewey's serious and logical demeanor. Paired with Cal, they were great together.
Such a different take on the ex that won't go away scenario. I enjoyed this listen.

When the ex refuses to leave

This was an ok listen. The story was interesting and ends in an hea. There are some explicit sex scenes and a bit of crude language. The narration was good with each character having their own voice.
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.

The Ghost Slept Over

Loved the story. It's funny. Enjoy all the characters. I liked how Mack, the ghost showed himself. I was afraid he wouldn't and everyone would end up in the nuthouse.

a fun novel meant to entertain - kept me happy and smiling as the ghost and his ex interacted. Well worth the purchase and one that will be listened to over and over

Great story ~ narration is phenomenal

This is my first book by Marshall Thorton and my first experience with Jason Frazier.

Thorton gives us a modern day haunting that is actually a love story. The world building is fantastic as we get to know three main characters and the quirky inhabitants of the small town where Mac died.

Well the story is fantastic on its own Frazier brings it to life in a way I’ve never heard from a single narrator before. He has the ability to give all the characters unique voices and personalities to the point of feeling like there was a full cast involved. His delivery also kept me laughing throughout the entire performance.

I’ll definitely be looking for more from both author and narrator.

A unique story

This is my first book from author Marshall Thornton, and Narrator Jason Frazier. I absolutely loved it. It was so different from anything I’ve listened to before. I think the narrator did a fantastic job as well. I highly recommend this audiobook.

A charming and witty love story

You will absolutely love this story and its quirky characters. It's the story of a failed actor whose luck takes a sudden turn. Marshall Thornton has a knack for writing colorful and charming characters, as well as writing gay men without turning them into stereotypes. Narrator Jason Frazer does a fantastic job with the narration, making every voice distinct. I was provided with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Now that I've heard this book, I'm going in search of other books by this talented author..

Great story and good narration

New to me author and narrator. I loved the story! Cute concept and good execution. I enjoyed the feeling and emotions from the narrator but I was disappointed by how similar the two main characters sounded. When they were speaking to one another, it was difficult to tell who was who and took me out of the story a bit. Otherwise, well done and I will be looking into more work from both author and narrator.

Fun read

Narration was very good. The story is humorous and well done. I thought after all the time the ghost spent trying to get his former lover back he capitulated too quickly at the end, but it didn't take anything away from the story.
