Loved it!
I found this book to be far better than 'Spirited Away'. (Perhaps it's because I read other books similar to it.)

On to this book:
Gawan, who's a rather hunky guardian angel, is a thousand years old and close to retirement. This is something he waited for a long time, when he literally knocks into a dazed woman wandering about in a stormy night and soon realises that she's not quite 'dead'. It's her spirit he sees.

Ellie is trapped between two world and would die if her mortal body is not found. The race for Gawan to find her and save her before it's too late is filled with urgency and fear since the corporeal Ellie doesn't know where her mortal body is and Gawan has less than a month to go as an angel who can help save her before he becomes mortal.
During their frantic search, they fall in love.
To fail means that he would lose her forever... and therein is the catch. Even if he does save her, either way he still loses her.
As a guardian angel, after Gawan saves a soul, neither will remember each other. Now this is personal for him because he's discovered that Ellie's his soul mate... and losing her is not something he can bear to contemplate.

Spoiler Alert!

When disaster strikes, and Ellie dies, he does the only thing he can, he bargains for her life with the powers that be, and lets her go. His memories of her fade and Ellie doesn't remember him.
However, all is not lost.
He and Ellie didn't count on Gawan's houseful of interfering, but interesting residents. The ghosts. They had quite happily interfered in every aspect of Gawan and Ellie's romantic life.
Those lovable characters were not prepared to let them forget each other, and the things they do to get them back together was hilarious.

Really loved the scene with Ellie and the mirror. That was wonderful.

Read it, it's a wonderful story.
