When Rosie Clark's sister enters her into a "win-a-date" contest with world famous singer-songwriter Collin Drake, without her knowledge, Rosie's path is suddenly forced to fork off into a new direction. Orphaned, pessimistic, and overwhelmed with the responsibility of taking care of a terminally sick sister, Rosie has no time to explore the nuances of love or of who she is in the midst of it. Given a role to play in her own life by a usually unsympathetic universe, without much control over the story told, will Rosie let Collin in enough to see who she is? Will she allow herself the permission to be happy? Will she pick up the pen to continue her own story? Or will she continue to let it be written for her.

Geoff and Naomi are dead, and they're depressed, but when Geoff's cat Bernie dies as well, they embark on a wild journey to find it in the underworld. ***** When Geoff dies, alongside his girlfriend Naomi, they end up sharing an apartment in the Underworld as skeletons. But after a few years, Geoff starts suffering a mid-death crisis. What's the purpose of going through the motions as a skeleton if you can't really live? Then he gets word that his cat, Bernie, just died and he can collect him and bring him home! Geoff and Naomi hurry to get Bernie only to discover that, due to a clerical error, their cat has been lost. With the hunt for Bernie giving new purpose to Geoff's un-life, he and Naomi begin a quest to get back their cat. Battling skeleton pirates, climbing the sky ladder and facing off against the villain who took Bernie, Geoff is determined to find his purpose - or die a second time trying!
