About this ebook

***WINNER OF THE 2018 SPECULATIVE ROMANTIC NOVEL AWARD***‘This is a pure joy’ Heat

If you could turn back time, would you choose a different life?

Forty-something Maggie is facing some hard truths. Her only child has flown the nest for university and, without her daughter in the house, she’s realising that her life, and her marriage to Dan, is more than a little stale.

When she spots an announcement on Facebook about a uni reunion, she can’t help wondering what happened to Jude Hanson. The same night Dan proposed, Jude asked Maggie to run away with him, and she starts to wonder how different her life might have been if she’d broken Dan’s heart and taken Jude up on his offer.

Wondering turns into fantasising, and then one morning fantasising turns into reality. Maggie wakes up and discovers she’s back in 1992 and twenty-one again. Is she brave enough to choose the future she really wants, and if she is, will the grass be any greener on the other side of the fence?

Two men. Two very different possible futures. But is there only once chance at happiness?

Perfect for fans of One Day, The Versions of Us and Miss You

Ratings and reviews

It dragged on and on and I was about to give it a 2 stars because I really hated Jude, but the ending saved it. It was a good read eventhough I didn't like Maggie either, Dan was OK but his weak personality was irritating sometimes. In short, the selfish female in this story has to choose between a narcissist or a defeated man, if it was for me, I would choose to live by myself and accomplish my own goals instead of letting men decide my fate, but that's just me🤭🤷‍♀️.

So many great take aways from this book on marriage and life in general. Love the imagery and I love how the author sucks the reader in. You become so emotionally invested.
