She's gone back in time to win the man of her dreams, so why is she falling for her worst nightmare?


The last place Joey Vasquez wants to spend her Friday night is at this dinner party. It's only because she misses her geriatric cat, and it definitely has nothing to do with the fact that she is in love with the host Elijah, her dashing golden-retriever best friend who also happens to be married.

She's barely through the door when she runs into the one man she'd sworn never to see again: Alex Aquino, smug broody tech billionaire - and the disaster of a one-night stand Joey spent years trying to forget.

The night couldn't possibly get worse - and then she dies.

Given a second chance at life, Joey returns to the year 2012. She's eighteen again and determined to undo some of her biggest regrets, starting with getting Elijah to love her back. But 2012 is also the year she met Alex, and well . . . old habits die hard.

Some regrets are too messy to undo, and not even death can save her from a love triangle that feels destined to happen.

Tropes:

🐈 Second chances
💜 Hate to love
🐈 Time travel
💜 reverse 13 Going on 30
🐈 'I'd follow you anywhere'
💜 2010s nostalgia

'A one-of-a-kind love story yet deeply nostalgic, like rewatching a favourite romantic comedy you've seen a dozen times. I loved it!' HANNAH BONAM-YOUNG, New York Times bestselling author of People Watching

'
It is a genuinely special story and my favourite thing I've read this year. Natalie Messier has a fan in me forevermore.' TARAH DEWITT, USA Today bestselling author of Left of Forever
