À propos de cet audio
Is living the life you’ve wished for really a dream come true?
Lucy Young is twenty-six and tired. Tired of fetching coffees for senior TV producers, sick of going on disastrous dates, and done with living in a damp flat with roommates who never buy toilet paper. After another disappointing date, Lucy stumbles upon a wishing machine. Pushing a coin into the slot, Lucy closes her eyes and wishes with all her might: Please, let me skip to the good part of my life.
When she wakes the next morning to a handsome man, a ring on her finger, a high-powered job, and two storybook-perfect children, Lucy can’t believe this is real—especially when she looks in the mirror, and staring back is her own forty-something face. Has she really skipped ahead like she’s always wanted, or has she simply forgotten a huge chunk of her life? As Lucy begins to embrace new relationships and the perks of maturity, she’ll have to ask herself: Can she go back to her previous life, and if so, can she stand to leave the good part behind?

Millicent Watts-Cohen is on a mission. When she promised her elderly best friend that she’d reunite her with the woman she fell in love with nearly eighty years ago, she never imagined that would mean traveling from D.C. to Key West with three tablespoons of Mrs. Nash’s remains in her backpack.

Histoire
When Hannah picks up a call from an unknown number, she thinks nothing of it—it’s just an easygoing American named Davey who misdialed her while calling into a job interview. And when Hannah wishes him luck after clearing up the confusion, she never actually expects to hear from him again. Then she gets a text saying he got the job and he’ll be moving to London, and she can’t help but smile. Soon their texts become phone calls that turn into video calls, and their friendship becomes a relationship they can’t wait to start in earnest.

The evening turns more promising when she meets a charming man at the bar and immediately connects with him. But when all their sexual tension culminates in a spectacularly awkward hookup, she decides this is one night better off forgotten. Unfortunately, that’s easier said than done.

Ce que les critiques en disent
One of PopSugar’s Best Romances of the Year
One of USA Today’s Best Romance Books for Fall

One of The Everygirl’s Best Books of 2023
One of Christian Science Monitor’s Best Books of November
"Filled with charming moments, lovable characters, and a bit of magic . . . This saga has it all." —Woman's World
"Cousens is a master at building emotional impact without becoming maudlin or sentimental. . . . Cousens acknowledges her book's debt to classic films like 13 Going on 30 and Big, and it captures some that nostalgia while also feeling fresh and relevant." —Book Reporter
I found Ms. Cousens' writing to be solid and well thought through and the narration by Ms. Gilbert was off the charts.
I loved this book beginning to end.
Good work, guys...

I wanted to see where it went, I fell for the characters. I loved Felix. The only reason the story was only a 4 star for me was related to the mother/child relationship. With no spoilers, some of it didn’t ring true for me. But of course all Moms are different and may not feel the same! Either way I would highly recommend it - and also if you are looking for other charming reads, I have always loved book from this author.
