Synopsis

From USA Today bestselling author Sally Kilpatrick comes a touching laugh-out-loud story of ghosts of the past and hope for the future . . .

Presley Cline turns heads and stops clocks. The prettiest girl in town, she ran off to Hollywood only to find Tinsel Town is full of the prettiest girls from hundreds of small towns—and their ghosts. Since Presley can commune with the dead, she would know. Not that she can tell anyone.

Declan Anderson is dead tired of the funeral business. He has other dreams, modest they may be, but he's never been able to leave town like Presley did. He's burned out and stuck in a rut. Then Presley shows up with her cosmetology case.

A few folks in the funeral home—one living, many dead—now know Presley's secret. Will the meddling of the dearly departed help both her and Dec to follow their own dreams? Or will long lost secrets and a slew of unmet dying wishes keep them from truly living?
