Publisher's summary

What would you change if you could start all over again? From Leeanne Slade, the bestselling author of The Rebound and Told You So, and narrated by Daisy Edgar Jones (Normal People) and Sam Claflin (Me Before You), this summer, fall in love with Henry and Grace.

Five Years Earlier

Henry Dunne knows three things: that agreeing to host this raucous house party was a terrible idea, that he absolutely cannot show up to his nursing shift tomorrow with a hangover, and that the beautiful redhead in the corner will be sleeping in his bed tonight.

But what he doesn’t know is that Grace Monroe, the ambitious and fiercely independent chef catering this party, is about to walk a tray of cream cheese appetisers straight into his chest and turn his world upside down. Now, the work-a-holic with a reputation for keeping things casual is planning romantic dates and meeting the family. Utterly smitten, Henry now knows something else: that Grace is the one and that absolutely nothing could come between them. . .

Present Day

Grace Monroe is one day away from thirty, her restaurant has just been declared bankrupt, her beloved grandmother has been rushed to hospital, and she’s now sobbing in a packed train station. The only way life could get worse is having Henry Dunne – the man who showed her what true love and heartbreak feels like – see her like this.

And there he is, wordlessly watching her from the opposite escalator.

A bottle of wine and an erratic wish later, Grace wakes up to one hell of a life glitch: it’s five years earlier, her twenty-fifth birthday, and she’s got picture-perfect memory of the missing years. Grace’s plan is clear: save her doomed career and prevent the worst heartache she’s ever known. All she needs to do is stop history repeating. . .

Easy, right?

Loved the characters and the plot

I loved the way this story unfolded, with Henry telling us the past and Grace telling us the now until all the secrets of both past and present collided. Very entertaining. The characters and the performances are lovely and believable. I’m rarely surprised, but this one did give me an Aha Moment.

The bathroom…

Even at the end of the book (14 straight hours later) is some of the funniest things I’ve heard in awhile. Still giggling 🤭. Love the hold idea and production.

This is NOT a Romcom!

Not what I was expecting based on the synopsis but it was worth a listen and well done overall. Deep, sympathetic and emotional/ not funny at all which is fine but not expected.

I borrowed for the narrators and I stayed up most of the night listening because of the story

This story was amazing and the twist at the end made me go back and re-listen now that I know. 😊

This is one of my favorite stories of the year.

Excellent Plot

I liked the storyline and character development. The storytelling was good as well. I want able to predict the ending so I was pleased about that.

I’d rate it 500 stars if I could

I loved Leeanne’s book, the rebound, since listening to it last year. Her ability to write a story and draw you in will never get old. Her characters, their relationships, witty & romantic.

After a traumatic birthday where 5 years of bad choices catches up to her, Grace gets a second chance at life when a glitch in the timeline sends her back 5 years in the past where it all started. Grace tells her side of the story from the new timeline while Henry recounts his from where it all started.

A clever way of sharing a dual POV story between two lovers, the plot weaving perfectly in and out. Did I mentioned Daisy Edgar-Jones and Sam Claflin narrate? I could listen to their story telling all day long.

Great story with unexpected turns

Sweet, gentle love story with several unexpected turns. It keeps you engaged and you grow to love the characters - through their faults.
