From the New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Marriage

'If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.'

When Alexis Spencer loses her job and her relationship on the same day, she can't help but feel frustrated with her
younger self. If she'd tried harder and made better choices, maybe she wouldn't be in so much debt, and maybe her old friends would still be around.

Feeling sorry for herself, Alexis finds a bottle of vodka from her college days and goes on a bender, blacking out in the process. Only this time, she doesn't wake up at home, or in the right city. In fact, she isn't even in the right year.

Alexis is back in her college town in the year 2002, where she comes face-to-face with her eighteen-year-old unruly self: Lexi. Getting used to life in the early 2000s is the easy part. Dealing with Lexi is where things prove difficult.

Now Alexis and Lexi must learn to get along and come to terms with the fact that alone, they will never make things right, but together, they could change their life for the better.

From Jeneva Rose, the New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Marriage and Home is Where the Bodies Are, comes a magical, hilarious, and heart-warming story about learning to love every version of ourselves.
