In Sophie Granger's world, it is normal for pillows to become airborne and unexpected, cool breezes to whisk through her home. She has grown accustomed to the persistent presence from the other side. It is not normal for Mack Tanner, the sexy new next-door neighbor, to hear her talking to her family ghost or to see hearts appear out of nowhere on a steamy bathroom mirror. As a retiring police officer, he is determined to help her with "her problem" while hiding secrets of his own. Mack's biggest challenge is trying to resist the rising electricity between them. He is not prone to commitments, and Sophie Granger believes there is no way a good-looking guy like Mack Tanner could fall for a girl like her. The ups and downs of this paranormal romance take their toll on the growing attraction Sophie and Mack feel. The "loving" interference of family, friends, and the resident ghost test the strength of their relationship and their own will. Is it just a shared love of good food and fast cars? Or will the couple hang together to find true love so the ghost can finally find her peace? Sometimes the best intentions can and do go awry.
