afterlife comedy death ghost grim grimreaper grumpy heaven hell hellhound humor newadult paranormal reaper romance scythe soul souls spooky sunshine supernatural

When she unexpectedly dies, Mackenzie Bowen lacks the paperwork she needs to pass into The Beyond. To avoid sitting in a waiting room for centuries, Mack is paired with Leon, a miserable Reaper, and hopes to either undo her death or earn her spot beyond the pearly gates.

                                                                      *****

Twenty-three-year-old Mackenzie 'Mack' Bowen thought she'd get more of a shot at life before a fatal accident puts all her plans on hold. Dead and resigned to that fact, she's shocked when her soul is collected by a Reaper named Leon, who has arrived to take her to The Beyond.

While the idea of the end doesn't sit well with her, the pair soon discovers that she doesn't have the paperwork to get past the pearly gates. Faced with a choice between a centuries-long wait on an appeal hearing and taking a job to earn her spot, Mack chooses the latter and becomes Leon's partner, much to the pair's chagrin.

But it seems whoever engineered her unexpected passing isn't done yet, and Mack soon finds herself in the middle of a tangled web of lies, secrets, prowling Hell Hounds, and, most frightening of all, corporate bureaucracy.

Scarlet Connection by happyquill

Welcome to the Veil or rather-my condolences. A slow-burn fantasy with a hint of romance, a pinch of action and mystery and a generous sprinkle of dark humour. Here you'll find mean angels, polite demons and grim reapers escorting souls (saints, sinners and mostly, comely ones) while juggling afterlife paperwork. Meet Clark Parker, ex-saint turned scourge of hell turned reaper, in search of her proverbial 'soulmate' while she fights rogue souls and deals with death and bureaucracy. #enemiestolovers #slow-burn #reincarnation #GoodOmensbutSexy #cleanromance *** Synopsis: For 500 years, she has been condemned to suffer. Clark Parker is reincarnated thirteen times, only to live a cruel life. In her final life, she dies a Saint, and the Veil offers her release: a chance at peace, at bliss-rebirth without sorrow. She refuses. Clark doesn't want to come back. She wants answers. But the truth she seeks lies deep within the Old Archives, a place forbidden to all but reapers. And she isn't one-not yet. To become an envoy of death, she must destroy what remains of her grace and taint her soul. And there is only one place to break a Saint: Hell. There, among the ruined and the wretched, she will rise. Through torment. Through the ranks of demons, and ascend as a reaper. But the closer she comes to the truth, the colder the world becomes. Because some secrets are chained for a reason. And some names should stay in the dark. [updates every weekend]

Death's Duty by writerbrittanyb

(18+) *Complete/Unedited* ---- "You are death." I heard the grin in his tone. "Death's duty is to take care of the already departed. Newly deceased, and previously deceased alike." ***** Morrigan Wraith lives a double life; one not many would think to question. While on the outside she looks like a normal human detective, underneath all of that lies a grim reaper. Reapers were created at the beginning of time, formed to be unemotional and detached as a soul's transport to either Heaven or Hell. But Morrigan is unlike the rest. She was created with a defective heart - one that felt emotion, and one that got her into more trouble than she ever imagined. (18+ for language, violence, and sexual situations)

The Grim Reaper Effect by starburrt

Death is a funny thing. It's the ultimate step out of our comfort zones. You realize this world is the biggest comfort zone there is. Earth has always been a constant in a constantly changing world. We're all born into it with this air of certainty. We always know the ground under our feet will be there tomorrow. Death is like waking up and that comfort of the world around you is destroyed. -AD // Mackenzie Oliver is finally a senior. She's ready to graduate and move on with life. But it's not that simple. In fact, it's impossible. One day, some random guy shows up claiming to be the Grim Reaper and tells her she only has one year to live. What do you say to that? "Bullshit." Unfortunately, vulgar language isn't going to stop the clock or save her life. Neither is slapping the Grim Reaper across the face. But, hey. It never hurts to try. Copyright © 2017 by AD

Reaper's Pet by JoselinToftlund

"I love you," Jack smiled. They looked at each other for what felt like a decade. "...No. No you don't." Willow rolled her eyes. "It seemed like the part of our fight where I should say it," he smirked, only making her anger rise. "Why are you doing this?" His expression faltered for a second as he heard the fear in her voice. "Treating me like this? Do you hate me or something? Or do you just not care if I live or die?" His eyes widened briefly before he shook his head. "I don't hate you, or want you to die. But I can't like you either. Humans live a short life, I live forever." He paused, taking a breath. "I can't let myself get attached to someone that will just die on me, or put you in danger," Jack sighed, scratching his neck. Something in his voice made Willow believe this wasn't his words, but rather, words he had been told. Do you love reapers, forbidden love, and a bad boy you can't help but adore? Then this is the story for you! When Willow made a deal with a reaper to save her little brother, she never expected to end up as one's bloodbag. Or, as Jack likes to call her, 𝙋𝙚𝙩. Join Willow on her journey as she discovers the hidden supernatural world that has been right under her nose for longer than she even remembers. And pray to Death for her soul, because 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯, she's gonna need it.

The Grim Reaper's Girl by joshszz

This is a story about the Grim Reaper and the souls he delivers. The Grim Reaper delivers souls from earth to what most comprehend as the 'afterlife'. When there is the occasional resistance from unwilling souls, he'll retrieve an old memory or feeling of theirs and let them experience it again. It usually works to persuade them to leave the world - souls who had suicidal thoughts in the past, those who lost loved ones and didn't want to continue living without them, and those who did something wrong and felt huge crushing guilt. Until he met a soul who never felt like she wanted to die before.
