“… women engagingly contend with otherwordly entities and real-world danger, while also grappling with that most mysterious phenomena: the human heart. Samet’s prose vacillates skillfully between various registers, expressing sensuality, suspense, and humor, as needed.
A collection of well-executed … tales of love and ghosts.”
Kirkus Review (on Romancing the Spirit Series, Books 1-6)
“Heartwarming stand alone novellas, each with their own supernatural twist. From Egypt to a small town, old love rekindled to new loves and loves that last the centuries. Each book perfect to cuddle up with on a chilly day and escape into romance that never dies.”

After the truck passed, Sadie ran her palms over her body. Apparently, she could touch herself even if objects couldn’t touch her. She walked back into the woods towards her unmoving body.
She hadn’t expected her own death to happen so quickly, or when she was so young. She’d been in the prime of her life. She had certainly never believed she would stand, as a ghost, over her corpse as it lay crumpled beneath her on a moist bed of golden and auburn leaves. As she continued to stare in disbelief, she began to drift away from her body.
