“Ineke van Os has written a stunning story about second chances. Cassie travels back to the past to save her first boyfriend, leaving behind a husband and daughter. Changing things isn’t easy and getting back to the present is even harder. I enjoyed the shocking twists of Cassie’s past and how she grows from it. A clever, well-told story from a fresh voice in fiction.” – Donna Munro, author of fiction and non-fiction.
"Tortured by years of suppressed shame, a middle-aged woman grasps the chance to travel back in time and correct the errors of her adolescence. She abandons her husband and her daughter in an effort to assuage her teenage guilt. She arrives in the past as a passionate teenage girl on a date with her first love, while her absence plunges her family into a frenzy.
In this thoughtful debut novel replete with layers of emotional tension, the author explores both euphoria and despair. If you’ve ever said to yourself, ‘If only I could go back and fix my mistakes’, this story may cause you to reflect again."
Rod Davison, author.
"Congratulations again on writing such an interesting and original story, with a great message at its heart. The story would particularly appeal to an adult female readership. Fans of Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series might also find it appealing.
I really enjoyed the time travel narrative and the protagonist’s journey to acceptance. Cassie’s use of time travel to go back and undo past regrets creates an interesting and compelling story." Megan Kelly ~ Author and owner of MK Books Editing.
