Don’t get me wrong, I love a good erotica here and there. I don’t mind a few sex scenes in a riveting book or saga. What does drive me crazy is sifting through Amazon’s library of books and hoping I find the one series that is so good, I can’t put it down on the first book, and the rest of the paranormal romance saga doesn’t devolve into written porn. I feel there’s got to be a good series with a protagonist who’s thrown into a paranormal world and \*can\* find love without it being the main plot. So, who’s got suggestions?

{{The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannon}}
This has been my favorite book of 2024 so far. I just finished it a few days ago and can’t stop thinking about it. It’s enemies-to-lovers, small town romance, older protagonists (30s) with jobs and lives, mysterious correspondence and a delightful cast of supporting characters.
The fantasy setting is cool and unique and the world building happens throughout the whole book. Hart (MMC) is a demi-god marshal and Mercy is an undertaker at a funeral home that deals with unidentified bodies that he finds.
It’s like a fantasy-western-romance with zombies that felt really different than everything else I’ve been reading lately, but also very relatable and endearing.
