Eighteen-year-old ghost hunter Cara is determined to escape life as a high school outcast by finding proof of the supernatural. She stumbles upon the spirit of Aiden, a popular upperclassman who died the previous year. His little sister, Meredith, has since become a depressed recluse, and he can't pass on into the afterlife until he knows she'll be okay. Believing that nothing pulls someone out of a slump like romance, he makes Cara a deal: seduce Meredith out of her shell and take her to prom, and Aiden will give Cara all the evidence she needs for fame. If not, well—no dates, no ghost.
