Her heavenly shrink isn't buying that she didn't kill herself- and says she must return to earth to straighten things out.

Now, Holly has forty-eight hours to resolve her issues while sharing arms, legs, and...other things...with a guy she barely noticed while she was alive. But the real surprise is what life has to offer when you have only two days to live it.
