Collins Cartwright never wanted to see Sweetwater Peak, Wyoming again. But when a developer threatens her parents' antiques shop, she has no choice but to come home. She tells her family she's helping with the business. She doesn't mention losing her job or running out of money. She also doesn't mention that the ghosts who have always talked to her have suddenly stopped speaking. Collins rents a room above Brady Cooper's upholstery shop rather than stay with family. Brady moved to Sweetwater Peak for reasons he won't share, claiming he just wanted a change. The room comes with a problem: it's full of ghosts who refuse to acknowledge Collins exists. She hates being ignored by anyone, living or dead. Brady thinks his new tenant talks to herself constantly and has conversations with empty air. As Collins and Brady spend more time together, their temporary living arrangement starts feeling less temporary. The ghosts begin pushing them toward each other, making both wonder if what started as convenience could become something lasting.
