Lilly Bienvenue inherits her grandparents' house in an old historical town of 300 years. Suddenly through a letter left to her from her grandfather and some intense dreams she finds her ancestors of several generations' past are connected to the curse of the town's ghost...The Phantom Funeral. The Phantom has haunted the town for centuries whenever the moon was bright on the anniversary of the night a commander of the neighboring historical fort was murdered in the 1700s. It is believed he is looking for his bride who never made it to the burial at the town's cemetery.

Lilly is shocked when she digs into her family's history and reads about several of her aunts, decades apart, losing their love on that same anniversary. She even begins to dream of these past events and it appears she is the curse's next victim. Of course, her rotten luck, Tripp, a young boy from her past has reappeared looking all grown up and handsome. Lilly is beginning to believe he is her modern-day commander.

To make it even more surreal the next anniversary is coming up and the moon phase appears to be very bright and everything is lining up to make her believe Tripp will be the next victim of the curse.

Deciding Tripp's life is more important than the two of them being together, Lilly pushes him away. Yet Tripp has a different plan and decides to show Lilly they can beat the curse together. Yet can it be done? And by who's expense?
