Six months ago, Clementine West had the worst day of her life. So, she came up with a plan to keep her heart safe: stay busy, work hard, take no risks. And it’s been working.

That is until one day she finds a strange man standing in her kitchen. A man with kind eyes, a crooked smile, and a recipe for the perfect lemon meringue pie. The kind of man that, before everything, she could have fallen for …

He’s perfect but for one thing: he lives in the past. Seven years ago, to be exact.

This should be impossible, but Clementine used to love impossible things. And maybe, just maybe, she will again. After all, love is never a matter of time – but a matter of timing.

‘A tender, nuanced love story that fans of Emily Henry will adore’ Red

Sarah Morgan, The Sunday Times bestselling author of Beach House Summer

Emma Straub, New York Times bestselling author of This Time Tomorrow

‘An absolute and unexpected delight. Voicy and quirky and fun; the pages will probably sparkle (but with black glitter).’
Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of The Unhoneymooners

The Dead Romantics takes so many things I love—quirky heroines, found families, cozy small towns, fanfics, GHOSTS (!!!)—and gives them all a fresh, fun, thoroughly modern spin. This is truly a RomCom to die for!’
Rachel Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of Reckless

‘This book made me fall in love, broke my heart then reassembled it at least twice, and left me swooning. A hauntingly romantic, hilariously heartwarming story. Ashley Poston is the real deal.’
Gwenda Bond, New York Times bestselling author of Not Your Average Hot Guy

I kind of didn’t want to read this book because the premise feel like gimmick, however as the story rolled through, the time travelling apartment was much more of a tool to understand grief and how we change over time. I almost wanted more apartment magic than we got. A really lovely story and well worth reading

It starts off a little cheesy and admittedly the narration for other characters could’ve been better (voice wise). But…I really enjoyed this! Lemon & Elon had me get lost in time travel and the perils of navigating life as an adult. I struggle with goodbyes but my take away is that I can take things with me and relive the memories as much as I would like. Thank you for this bit of magic x

The chemistry just wasn’t there. I wanted to love it so much, loved the concept when read the blurb. And it ended up being another insta love story.

The premise was good but…
