Read the book around 2010. I sort of remember the word ghost either being in the title or maybe in the name of the company that makes the simulation machines, not sure about that though. Main character is a male, sex is a big focus in the book.

I think the characters you can interact with in the simulation are modelled off of real life people, and I think the main character meets one of the people in real life that he interacted with in the simulation.

Definitely a book for adults, borrowed from a library but can't log into my library account anymore to look at my loan history.

Spoiler

Near the end of the book, the guy has sex with one of the main female characters, and he chokes her as she requests and she pretends to go limp which scares him into thinking shes dead momentarily.

[comes in late] This doesn't happen to be Permutation City by Greg Egan, does it? It's been a long time since I read the book, but it was definitely similar in terms of sex and simulation things. It was published in the mid-90s, but I don't know if that's recent enough.
