Dearly Departed
Autor Chip Ponsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 iun 2026
Hope is a dangerous thing for gods. Even former ones.
Hayden Harlow, once the mighty Hades, has spent centuries quietly resenting his fall from immortality. Stripped of his godhood by the allegedly irreversible Immortal Retirement Act, he now runs Harlow and Sons Funeral Home-a front for his eternal sentencing among mortals, and a bleak reminder of the purpose he's lost. Still, he's determined to claw his way back...if only the Fates at City Hall would stop toying with him.
Enter Levi Wilder: a florist with an artist's heart, an infectious smile, and a gift for finding beauty in life's messiest moments. When Hayden storms into Levi's shop to complain about a bouquet of sunflowers-an offensive choice for a funeral, in his opinion-their worlds collide. Hayden is all restraint and shadows; Levi is all sunshine and charm. But beneath the clash lies an undeniable spark neither can ignore.
As their connection blossoms, Hayden finds himself caught between the life he once knew and the bright future Levi dares him to imagine. But trusting Levi means risking the walls he's kept in place all these years-and it's not just his heart on the line. Because in the threads of fate, one choice can change everything.

One of GoodReads' Most Anticipated Romantasies for 2026
One of Nerd Daily's Most Anticipated Book Releases for 2026
Shadow Daddy is the love interest you didn't know you needed! Not only is Dearly Departed sexy as sin, funny as hell, and so goddamn charming, it's also incredibly heartfelt and one of the most genuine portrayals of grief I have seen in a romance novel. I need everyone to read this book immediately, and I'll be screaming from the rooftops that this is THE romance book of 2026.
Listen, I'm always sat for a Shadow Daddy, but Hayden Harlow took that chair out and had me on my knees with one effortless shadow flick - and I'm not really complaining here. With the freshest voice and chemistry that leaps off the page, Dearly Departed hits every mark a paranormal romance obsessionado like me could ever wish for. A small-town setting, a God of the Underworld living in disguise, and the utmost deliciousness of seeing him find his opposite and then irrevocably falling for him. Pons writes romance that burns with heart, humor, and spectacular heat. I'm obsessed with this!
Fresh, poignant, and sexy as hell - Dearly Departed is a fun new take on a classic tale. Chip weaves a beautiful story full of lessons on loving, letting go, and all the good that can find us when we're not even looking. This one is really special!
Funny, sexy, poignant . . . Dearly Departed is all of these things! Chip Pons's latest is a swoony, spicy romance with the broodiest of grumps and the sunniest of sunshines that made me laugh out loud at the romcom banter and also gave me tears with its on-point depiction of long-term grief. I'll be thinking about Hayden and Levi for a long, long time.
Achingly tender and outrageously hot, Dearly Departed is a small-town romance about what happens when you fall for the guy next door who just so happens to be a former god of the underworld. Chip Pons fully delivers on his irresistible premise with a love story that lingers long in the memory, and a world you will long to revisit.
Dearly Departed perfectly blends cozy, small-town romance with Greek mythology in a poetic exploration of grief and love. Come for the beautiful prose, stay for the spicy times with shadows!
Dearly Departed is an underworldly delight! These characters gripped my heart with their stunning capacity for love, all rendered with Chip Pons's clever, deeply empathetic voice. The ultimate grumpy-sunshine romance.
Only Chip Pons can take the Greek god of death himself-complete with seductive shadows-and make him fall mortally in love. This small-town, MM romance take on the classic myth that both defies everything you thought you know about Hades and delivers more than you could have ever thought possible-a tender yet passionate story that shines a light on the darkness in us all so love can bloom!
Chip Pons is delivering a love story to die for. . . . The author puts queer love on full display.
Filled to the brim with witty banter and unbridled joy, Pons delivers an at times poignant and belly-laugh-brilliant romance between the perfect opposites attract couple. The gentle approach to love, the softness between the characters beneath the brilliant banter, the swoon-worthy moments - all make my chest ache to read it all over again. Dearly Departed knocks it entirely out of the park! A must read!
Chip Pons redefines 'sex god' with this raunchy and emotional romantic epic. I fell hard for Levi and Hayden, and their heartfelt story left me shattered and begging for more. With its god-level spice and super-smart twists on Greek myth, Dearly Departed takes queer romance to exhilarating new heights. In a word: legendary.
