Synopsis

Libby Lakoski has loved her best friend, Carter Coldwell, in secret for fifteen years. Now he is engaged to a British diamond heiress. Carter's wealthy Upper East Side life has been Libby's idea of home since they met, a far cry from her tiny apartment and a mother who is rarely around.

Libby is also the only person who knows the Coldwell family is cursed. Then a ghost turns up: Trip Coldwell, Carter's cousin, who is handsome, clever and quick to flirt. Libby is the only living person able to see him.

Trip's unfinished business is lifting the curse, and the cure depends on Carter getting married. Libby wants the opposite. Trip plays on her unrequited feelings to win her help, and the two start following clues around New York City before the curse can touch Carter.

The trail teaches Libby about Trip and about the tangled relationships inside the Coldwell family. It also makes her doubt how much Carter ever returned her friendship. Meanwhile her attraction to Trip grows, and she catches herself imagining what it would be like to touch him.

The wedding date draws closer, and the romantic comedy turns on one choice for Libby: end the curse, with a ghost at her side, or keep the best friend she cannot let go.
