Death Becomes Her( COMPLETED)
Essence Hall is a brilliant, no-nonsense surgeon who believes in science, facts, and the cold certainty of life and death - but never in love. When she meets Angelo, a darkly charming man with a razor-sharp wit and a habit of showing up at the exact moment someone takes their last breath, she writes him off as an oddball. But Angelo isn't just strange - he's the Grim Reaper. And though he can't lie - an eternal curse tied to his existence - Essence refuses to believe him. Intrigued by her unshakable skepticism, Angelo becomes determined to learn more about the messy, unpredictable nature of human life - and why a woman who holds so many hearts in her hands seems so unwilling to open her own. As sarcasm turns to sincerity and death's touch begins to feel a little more like a caress, Essence must face an impossible truth: sometimes love, like death, comes when you least expect it.Complete
