Book Blurb

Aiden Grant is seventeen, has a killer kiss, and a boss who used to be President, back in the old days. You see, Aiden is a grim reaper and his kiss welcomes the newly dead. But Aiden’s pleasant grim reaper lifestyle is in jeopardy. And it’s not only because Honest Abe keeps throwing out history lessons with reaping assignments, just to confuse him. It’s because Aiden’s next assignment is to reap the soul of Bee, the only girl he has ever loved.


When Aiden’s kiss of death fails, intertwining their souls, Bee is still very much alive and they are both in trouble. The ancients want Bee, who has special powers of her own, and they’ll do anything to get her.



Some rules are meant to be broken—even if that means Aiden must bargain with his own soul to save Bee. Who knew the afterlife could get so complicated?

Toot's Review by Stacy Sabala

Deadly Kisses by Kerri Cuevas is a paranormal romance geared for YA.  The author wrote a unique story where the main character Ad, or Aiden, died in a car accident with his best friend Sabrina.  Sabrina ascended to Heaven and Aiden feeling regret becomes a grim reaper.  Aiden’s mentor and boss is Abraham Lincoln, yes the one and only.  The author uses this relationship to give some comedic relief, however the story is dark as the main topic is death. It takes an even darker turn as poor Aiden has to be tested. He is required to kill and reap the soul of the girl he has always loved.  He does his best to do the job assigned and then everything goes wrong.  The situation continually goes from bad to worse.  Personally for me, as the reader, it was frustrating to see how this adventure played out. Aiden couldn't catch a break. So with my frustration and the dark story line, I had to take breaks reading it.  It was a bit too depressing for my taste.  I felt that the author needed more humor to add some lightness to the heaviness of the story.  I needed more balance.  With that being said, it was a good story and those of you who are looking for something different, I would definitely recommend it to you.
