From the blurb:

Perfect Shores Funeral Parlour: Where we bury the bodies and reap the SOULS!

Mal

Perfect Shores Funeral Parlour, the family business; we bury the bodies and reap the souls, it's what we do.

"Be nice to the humans, Mal." My father insists. "Humans are our business."

I don't do humans. I don't like humans. They're tedious, but I'm cold and unfeeling. They mean nothing to me.

But then he walks in; sad eyes, sallow skin, a man grieving for his lost love. It's all I can do not to hide him away and take care of him. This wasn't supposed to happen. He wasn't supposed to happen; now I don't know how to handle these feelings. Doesn't he know I'm a demon, not a lover?

Jason

"It's time to move on, Jase." Kristine's words ring in my ears as I enter Perfect Shores Funeral Parlour, but that isn't what I have in mind.

You see, I've heard of a man that can bring him back from the dead and I'll do anything to hold him in my arms again. Kieran was my world until his ended. But then there he is. Tall, dark and brooding, but he's not the one I'm here to see. He's not the one that can bring Kieran back to me.

Something about him, though. I can't explain how he brings a long-forgotten smile to my face, how my stone-cold heart beats a little faster.

This wasn't supposed to happen. He wasn't supposed to happen. But he's a demon, not my dead lover.

The Demon Undertaker is part of the Possessive Love series featuring a demon and a human. An MM standalone featuring a demon with no clue, a human with no clue, an annoying brother and a cute hellhound! Plenty of steam abounds! TW - mentions the death of a loved one


Molly Otto's review:

Caius Ashburn is a new to me narrator and knocks this audiobook out of the park! He has a beautifully soothing voice that draws you in and holds on from the first sentence all the way to the conclusion. You never lose your place and are easily able to distinguish each of the characters. I look forward to hear more of his future works.

It has been eighteen months since the devastating loss of Jason's husband, and he is having trouble moving on and accepting life without Kiernan. With a chance meeting of Zeke, he is offered the chance to bring Kiernan back, until Fate gets in the way and collides him with Mal (Zeke's brother). The attraction is undeniable, even with Jason still grieving and Mal is hiding his true nature.

This book has a fun take on reaping souls being a business rather than something that just happens when a soul passes. While grief is a major factor into the story it isn't all consuming but a part of life that you learn to accept and live with to move forward with your life without that loved one no longer it.
